Articulation Is key
In a court setting this morning, I witnessed a mother trip and fumble over words. This act was a poor attempt to justify the actions of her son. Regardless of the outcome, this spectacle of uneducated speaking, reminded me that we are how we convey ourselves. Whether it be through appearance or conversation. The website of Vocabulary.com claims to be "the quickest, most intelligent way to improve your vocabulary. Regardless of your education level or age, Vocabulary.com will help you to master the words that are essential to academic and business success". I believe this is an accurate statement, and best of all, it is absolutely free. Fellow Kentucky gentleman, drama critic, Naval Lieutenant and Harvard graduate John Mason Brown said "A good conversationalist is not one who remembers what was said, but says what someone wants to remember." So become a crafter of memories, an articulate speaker with deadly precision and click the link below.
