The Experiment
I am going to see if I am going to be listened to more if I speak more slowly. I tend to speak average. Not too fast nor too slowly. But I will speak much more slowly to help my anxiety levels.
I will let you know how I go.p
Wish me luck.
So the update. It's been two days. The only times speaking slowly helped was with my darling husband. He didn't ask me three times what I was saying. Low and behold he got it first time round. A slight relief. Only slight though. He's often annoying because he asks me to repeat 16357 times until my lips drop off.
I was pretty useless with keeping up the speaking slowly experiment, throughout this weekend. I guess I speak somewhat fast normally.
I'll give it a good whirl tonight at the restaurant and movie theatre. Fingers crossed.
