NOTE

Flow Over Frameworks

Understanding that speaking should be a subconscious and flow-oriented process transforms one's approach to communication. Instead of overthinking tactics and frameworks, effective speaking happens when one connects profoundly with their message, allowing the flow state to guide their delivery. This mindset shift alters practice methods; instead of addressing superficial symptoms like filler words, the focus turns to identifying and resolving root causes such as discomfort with pausing or pressure-induced anxiety. By addressing these foundational issues, not only are filler words minimized, but overall clarity and composure in speaking improve, leading to a more relaxed and effective communication style.
