It's not about what you say, it's how you say it.
For a clear and confident conversation, focus on your posture.
Avoid folding your arms or making your self smaller than you are.
Use your eye contact to break the gap.
As a speaker, you should respect your audience.
They are here for you to listen. They want to listen to your ideas, so you must respect them.
Remember the quote “Give respect, Take respect“.
If you fail to give respect, they will not listen to you.
Whenever u have a conversation with anyone ask them about your mistakes, progress you have done in conversation.
This will help you in achieving your goals and by looking after your mistakes, you will learn them and improve it.
Effective comm. is where the speaker makes eye contact with his audience.
The receiver starts trusting to him and shows interest in his words.
Maintaining eye contact builds credibility, and also it shows you care about your listeners.
Remember spoken words can't be taken back.
Before responding, take some time to think properly about the situation and speaker, then reply to him.
It shows you are genuinely interested in his talks and understand them properly.
Effective communication is where you tend to listen other opinions rather than just throwing your words.
It shows that you are interested in the conversation and sends good vibes.
Help your audience in taking part in the conversation by asking them question.
This technique is mainly used in speeches where there are many listeners.
Use this method to attract the attention of your audience.
Your body is much important as your words as it tells about your personality.
Use your hands while talking so that other's feel confident about your vibe.
Keep it simple, avoid going far long.
It will start losing audience interest and will waste their time.
Be simple and short but to the point to increase value of your words.
Even a good communicator works on improving his skills regularly.
Even you think you are perfect, still you can be improved.
REMEMBER NO ONE IS PERFECT
Thank you 👑🙌

1/ Some initial thoughts on personal moats:
Like company moats, your personal moat should be a competitive advantage that is not only durable—it should also compound over time.
Characteristics of a personal moat below:

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.
After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.
5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.
In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.

I'm increasingly interested in the idea of "personal moats" in the context of careers.

Moats should be:
- Hard to learn and hard to do (but perhaps easier for you)
- Skills that are rare and valuable
- Legible
- Compounding over time
- Unique to your own talents & interests https://t.co/bB3k1YcH5b

As Andrew Chen noted:
People talk about \u201cpassive income\u201d a lot but not about \u201cpassive social capital\u201d or \u201cpassive networking\u201d or \u201cpassive knowledge gaining\u201d but that\u2019s what you can architect if you have a thing and it grows over time without intensive constant effort to sustain it

Things that look like moats but likely aren\u2019t or may fade:

- Proprietary networks
- Being something other than one of the best at any tournament style-game
- Many "awards"
- Twitter followers or general reach without "respect"
- Anything that depends on information asymmetry https://t.co/abjxesVIh9
