, the next time you are trying to get your point across, try this: (No matter what the environment!)
AVOID JARGON: Refine your message to its simplest form-- if possible use imagery or metaphors. (Engaging your audience's imagination and connecting emotionally can be the best thing you can do to get your point across!)
LESS IS MORE: Rehearse your message in front of the mirror and then record it using your phone. Try to change some words and re-record. See if you can say it in less time, with fewer words. (Talking faster does NOT count!)
GET CLEAR: Make sure YOU are very clear. Nothing comes across more powerfully than a CLEAR IDEA expressed with conviction and passion.
