How to speak so that people listen.

7 years ago

This is a wonderfully informative talk on how to get people to really listen to what you have to say. I really like the 7 deadly sins of speaking and think they are just great rules to live by in general. They are:
1. Gossiping
2. Judging
3. Negativity
4. Complaining
5. Not taking responsibility for yourself
6. Exaggerating 
7. Being dogmatic and confusing facts with opinions

I think that just avoiding this DON'T list in your daily life will give you a lot of credibility.

Also, implementing HAIL into your life will make you a happier individual as well as making you the kind of person that people want to listen to.
