Speed Kills
Speed Kills.
I'm not talking about driving here,
but driving too fast is dangerous too.
I'm talking about how you speak.
DRIVING too fast can certainly
be bad for your health,
but SPEAKING too fast can be
bad for your CREDIBILITY.
People have a hard time trusting
fast-talking "experts" or salespeople.
Slow it down.
Take your time.
Check in with the person listening.
Do they understand?
Make sure and THEN move on.
It is NOT easy and it takes
a little more time,
but it is....
soooooo worth it.
