30.51 - 57.194 SL Rockfish

What is fluency? Fluency is not about speaking fast or quickly. No, no. It's about not stopping. What? Yeah. Today's fluency exercise uses a simple structure. What's the structure, Sarah? Oh, yeah. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is SL Rockfish. Yo, you know it. Or you can call me Sarah. And today's fluency exercise has a simple structure.

First, we state what the problem is, why it's happening, and what you need. Let me review. What the problem is, why it's happening, what you need. For example, we're having an issue with the deadline. The timeline changed and we need more time to finish the project. No fancy words, no perfect grammar. Just keep moving forward, even if it's simple. Fluency comes from momentum, not perfection.

Oh my gosh, that's almost profound. Yeah. Fluency comes from momentum, not perfection. Just state the problem. Why is it happening and what you need? Think about it. Oh, I don't have my homework. I left it at home. I'm going to have to call someone to bring it to me. I stated the problem. Why did it happen? What do I need? Boom.

124.105 - 150.235 SL Rockfish

Can you make a sentence and record it or send it to me or practice the fluency? Let me know if this works for you. It's hard to do a podcast episode about you talking when I can't hear you, but practice the fluency today. Think of a problem. Tell what it is, why is it happening, and what do you need, all right? Tell me in the comments how it goes. Practice, fluency. Let me be profound again.

It comes from momentum, not perfection. Nobody's perfect, friends. Not even me. Most of all, not me, all right? Peace, friends. Have a great day. Go on practice. Have a fun-filled Friday. That's alliteration and fluency. Peace.
