🌈How to be concise in English
We've got 3 strategies
1️⃣to plan ahead
Especially when you are speaking a second language, it's always easier to be concise, if you thought about your message or your story ahead of time, whether it's presentation at work, running a meeting, telling someone a story, which details you would share, what you maybe exaggerated.
👏👏👏This is not the same thing as rehearsing, more of like outlining, what wanna say.
👏👏👏Plan ahead how should I started, what speech should I narrated, which details should I leave out, you need to think about that in advance
👏👏👏What details matter to the audience. Knowing the audience who we are speaking to
👏👏👏Record yourself and then listen to it, where could I be more concise, what details should I leave out
