[@invisigoat]

EXCELLENT video!! Per point three: (this works better if you live alone but you don’t have to live alone) I’m in the habit of verbalizing my day to day activities. For instance, if I am making up my bed in the morning I actually audibly describe what I’m doing as I’m doing it. “I am going to make my bed. I am pulling away the bedspread and I will do so in such a way that it is in its proper orientation so that it is easier to put back on the bed. I’m watching my step because I certainly don’t want to stub my toe on an end table. As soon as I’m done here I will go and brush my teeth.” You can do this while washing dishes. Describe the way the dish is soiled. Describe the type of dish it is. Describe any design features on each dish. Practice your descriptions so that you are speaking fluidly and with no bumbling. This trains you to clear any bottlenecks between your brain and your mouth.

Some people have the gift of articulating themselves. My daughter is like this. I have never been this way even though I think deeply about all kinds of topics, I read, I discuss with others, I talk to myself in front of the mirror, etc. Yes, I can improve, but it does not come easy to me!

[@deoccultist]

I'm an avid reader, and organizing my thoughts into writing is what I do best. I think it's what a lot of people do best because we have time to think and process everything. Speaking requires quick recall, and that's not my strongpoint. My brain works well when I can take my time, but my mouth doesn't sync up so well when trying to explain something vocally. It's extremely frustrating. I'm envious of those who can just talk and talk with coherence and never miss a beat. I'm not sure how to get to that point. I think my brain is just wired this way.

[@jenniferoakland2427]

[@lordiamyers5100]

Am the same. It can be so frustrating.

[@elsiekariuki3914]

Me too

[@trra7785]

i relate to every sentence you say. And one more thing about me is i don’t live in an english speaking country, due my growth and the prolonged time spent on the internet, my vocabularies are explored more on the english side. So whenever i had to talk in my native languange i had to translate them in my head which takes times and i have this thing where accurate words rarely come by. But I am trying to improve my vocabulary, the way i speak, and write in both languages. I also read books aswell, uncluding both languages but im trying to focus more on my native one.

[@sunshine2049]

Having verbal fluency and conveying confidence while speaking is something I would love to achieve. I did not grow up around adults that invited conversation without being criticized. Lucky are those that did. I find what helps is to listen to someone that speaks really well and write down some of the words they say, and study them.

[@energyhands]

I like to listen to Jordan Peterson. He expresses with such concise and to the point verbiage.

[@StarlightKii]

Thank you for this tip! ❤

[@SamStarbucker]

As someone who absolutely hated the idea of reading a textbook, and stuttered a lot with people who I’m even close with, I decided to go ahead and follow you step by step process. Within 3-4 weeks I noticed that I was able actively read and listen to my own thoughts and words before giving them to others. It was rough but it has been very rewarding! Thank you so much ❤

[@corderi22]

Actually my nine year old daughter has read hundreds of books in the past two years and she can express her thoughts wonderfully. So, I totally agree.

[@Mseleku1]

Learning at least 5 words a day is helpful. I do that myself and I write at least 5 sentences using the word I've just learned, and try to incorporate in my conversations so that it becomes engraved in my mind. This has helped me enormously as I am able to retrieve those words spontaneously. Repeat and repeat. That will take you places.

[@TheMetaMindset]

I think this is the best method. Our vocabulary generally consists of two categories: Our deep lexicon, and our soft lexicon. Our soft lexicon consists of words that we use frequently on a day-to-day basis. Our deep lexicon mainly consists of words that we know, or can at least understand in context, but are not words that we would typically use while speaking in our day-to-day interactions. When using a word from your deep lexicon, you might pause, stutter, stammer, say 'uhm', or even just have a slight delay before being able to articulate that word into a sentence. The word just doesn't come naturally or subconsciously. So if you want to learn to better articulate your thoughts, or speak to others, you need to convert words from your deep lexicon into your soft lexicon. Choosing 5 words from your deep lexicon, and using them each in your own sentences and words over the period of a week will generally do the trick. I think the belief is that it generally takes using a word in your own sentence around 30-40 times before it moves into your soft lexicon. Also as far as writing goes, I would take it a step further and try writing what they call "morning pages." It is INCREDIBLY effective in organizing your thoughts as well as giving yourself insight.

Much appreciation to you Kara Ronin for this insightful video. 3 Steps To Articulate Your Thoughts Clearly: 1. Read: It exposes you to new ideas, new ways of thinking and structuring. Also, it helps to improve one's vocabulary. 2. Write: It allows you to identify thinking patterns and to determine whether you have good or bad thoughts. This gives you an opportunity to reflect on those thoughts and improve them. Also, it helps you to develop the ability to write clearly in an organized manner. 3. Speak: The ability to read and write articulately will help you to verbal express yourself clearly in an organized manner.

This is a great video. This was also in the Bible in Deuteronomy: Place these words on your hearts. Get them deep inside you. Tie them on your hands and foreheads as a reminder. Teach them to your children. Talk about them wherever you are, sitting at home or walking in the street; talk about them from the time you get up in the morning until you fall into bed at night. Inscribe them on the doorposts and gates of your cities so that you’ll live a long time, and your children with you, on the soil that God promised to give your ancestors for as long as there is a sky over the Earth.

I find myself lacking the words to describe the things I want to say recently. This was not always the case. However, I I realized there was one solution to it that you also mentioned in your video: reading books. I know for sure that when I spend more time reading books, I am more able to articulate myself clearly but that my thoughts seem clearer as well. What a wonderful reminder and great video overall!

[@shamarimichelle6462]

What if you articulate your words well in thought and it comes out the complete opposite?

[@kararonin]

This can happen. It's usually brought on by nerves or stress that cause you to get thoughts muddled even after you've got them clear in your mind. I might do a video in future tackling this issue.

You can't count that your audience will have also cognitive level to understand your level of articulation. So wise is to know how to understand different scales of consciousness. For kids use their scale of consciousness

[@AwaitingTheBlessedHope]

I highly suggest writing down the questions and answers, as well as thoughts that you want to bring up during the interview. Try not to memorize what you captured in writing in order to recite it, but use it as a guide. So for the interview itself, use bullet points for your key thoughts.

Good thing! If she failed to have a well structured video that confused us all, she would have no creditability.

Great video, thank you! The most frustrating thing is that I'm a professional writer - I can successfully articulate thoughts on the page but when I open my mouth, especially with my husband, the language is vague, and he often has to ask for clarification.

I'm glad you liked this video @HBDuran! A few thoughts about your question: 1) It could be the topic. Are the conversations with your husband the same content as what you write about? If you were to talk about what you write about, would you be able to articulate your thoughts better? My thinking behind this is it could be an issue of being familiar with the content. 2) Try to find the main point of what you want to say, remove all rambling, and say that to your husband. 3) Use powerful words that you normally reserve for your writing, but bring them into your communication. Make a list of 3-5 words you want to use when speaking.

Do you re-write/edit a lot? I have the same problem. I'm not a professional writer but I've published articles. I think it has to do with constant editing that I do when writing. My brain automatically wants to do the same when I speak. So I end up rambling quite a bit.

@@donnalee3368 Yes I do! My brain wants to edit myself a lot.
