Communication

 


I remember some years ago a friend asked me to write him a speech for graduation. 

I took it up and did my research on how to execute it and make it precise and easy for people to understand

I spent hours writing it and when I was done with it, I forwarded it to him and what he said was the speech looked like it was written for an SHS graduate.

After he said that, he sent me something he had written and what he did was to just change the grammar. 

I sometimes feel communication is often a barrier to so many people and we make our speeches so complicated that the next person doesn't even understand it 

This speech I wrote for my friend was meant to be read by a minister so because of that he felt the words should be huge like flabbergasted, perplexed etc.

One thing we forget is these speeches are meant to be understood and not to show off 

If you read a speech full of big words and no one gets to understand what you are saying then what have you achieved at the end of the day but if it's simple and straight to the point and everyone gets to understand, then you've done a pretty good job.

That is waaaaaayyy better than big grammar.

Know when to use it. Sometimes simple is better than complex words.




Always remember" Communication is key so understand your audience and know when to use which language"

RELATIONSHIPS (FUD 4 THOUGHT)

Everyone wants a fairy tale relationship  Where the story line goes like this On one bright Saturday afternoon at the mall I was just checking out some dresses when suddenly my purse fell I reached to pick it when he decided to do that for me I looked at him and it was love at first sight We started talking and it felt like we had known each other forever Shortly after we started dating This guy was just amazing He understood me and accepted my flaws  He was just my kind of man The love was deep and I loved every inch of it Years after, he popped the question   And I gladly accepted And we've lived happily ever after till now These kind of stories doesn't exist in reality Trust me....they don't In the beginning of every relationship is very lovely and sweet but getting to the middle of it, things become very sour And that is where questions start popping up in our  minds "Why is he/she doing this to me?, does he/she...

UPLIFTMENT 2

People always complain that their work is not going well People always attribute their faults to something People always think they have the most problems People always compare themselves to others People always envy others just because of what they have be it money,fame, beauty etc. But you forget that God is the maker and provider of everything He alone can make you successful Many at times we forget to just say thank you to Him. The fact that we are still alive and counted among the living, the only thing He needs from you is your praises The fact that we are not dead, we can still do more and achieve everything if only we call on to Him And make Him the ruler of our lives Just do what you have to do and leave the rest to God Almighty And He will surely deliver if only you believe in him and trust him Don't compare yourself to other people I know sometimes it is frustration but... Do you even know what they go through everyday? They may even want what you have ...

FUD FOR THOUGHT 2

True words were never spoken unless you associate your life with some people your life will improve. Anytime you tolerate mediocrity and others it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people. As you grow your associates will change. Your friends will not want you to go on, they would want you to stay where they are. Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dreams. Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you. Consider this never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with somebody who is incapable of contributing to the solution because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has the right to speak into your life. You will certainly get the worse of the bargain when you exchange your ideas with the wrong person. Don't foll...
