Yes. So like any skill. Musik, Martial-Arts, Sport, was auch immer. Du musst es praktizieren. Nun, das interessante an spontanem Reden, im Moment, ist, dass viele von uns denken, du bist entweder mit dem Reden geboren oder nicht. Du bist entweder gut bei Antworten, Feedback geben, Smalltalk machen oder du bist nicht.

Und in Wahrheit ist es ein Set von Fähigkeiten, die man trainieren, lernen und entwickeln kann, sodass man sie, wenn man im Moment ist, erzeugen kann. Und ich benutze Athletik, Athleten als ein tolles Beispiel immer. Athleten trainieren, trainieren, vorbereiten, sodass sie dann ihr spontanes Spiel spielen können.

Nun, einige von uns, durch die Wahrheit unserer Persönlichkeit, durch die Wahrheit unserer Erfahrung, könnten ein bisschen vor anderen beginnen. Du weißt, mein letzter Name ist Abrahams. Mein ganzes Leben lang bin ich immer zuerst gegangen. Just because teachers always sat us alphabetically.

But that doesn't mean I was great at it, and nor does it mean I couldn't get better at it. The same thing is true with everybody. We can practice and get better at our communication in general, but especially spontaneous speaking.

So, thank you for disclosing. It is something that does bother me. Your intent is wonderful. And I want to reward the intent. I just want to change the behavior. At the end of you communicating, answering a question, giving information, you want to check in to make sure that you served your audience well. Did they understand what you were saying? Did you answer their question?
