Rambling

I wish I had the ability to explain something I am passionate about to a person without overwhelming them. (i.e. The gospel, running, or Thrive the new food storage company I am promoting) I tend to just chatter my way through an explanation until I realize I have said too much, in an unorganized manner until they get that glazed over look and have checked out. 

Here are a few possible solutions I have come up with…

  • Don’t curb your enthusiasm if it is real.  But don’t force it either. 
  • Be an active listener and allow conversation
  • Don’t plow through with info if you can’t get them interested
  • Think before you speak and organize your thoughts
  • Remember, not everyone is in the same place in life.  They just may not be ready

Can’t say that I have to ability to follow all of these things, but at least they came out of my own brain so there is hope!

  1. Nice plug! *smile* I am so with you on the rambling thing. It will get better I think the more you explain. :)
