[@emilygrace74]

Finally I've found pepole I can relate to about talking to fast. I've always talked to fast and slurred my words I'm tired of hearing "what?" "Huh?" "Say it again?" . ITS SOOO embarrassing! What finally made me do something was today when I finally got up the courage to talk to my crush, it was so awkward so I just blurted out "I love elephants" he thought I said I am a elephant. It was cringy weird and embarrassing. Thanks for the tip Ill definatly use it tomorrow. Update: nothing ever happened with me and that boy he ended getting a girlfriend. But I'm starting to talk more clearly now and its definitely brought up my confidence. I'm happy I found pepole just like me. One huge tip I have is to not give a shit what other people think about you just go with it and whatever happens happens.

[@Gurlwithbluesguitark]

This is absolutely phenomenal! I do door knocking for living and sales for living going on 10+ years now. I am told constantly, "sloooow down, why do you talk so fast?" I then think to myself, "I guess I do, I didn't mean to." Then I become to aware and start to feel really bad about myself so much so I feel I have no control or technique, that I start just saying, "I guess this is my life now." My own relationships with friends, partners, and family have been disrupted or hurt because I become annoying with how fast and how much I have to say. This is starting to really teach me to slow down my thoughts and word count in my speech, that I think I will come off as a much more effective and clearer speaker. Thank you for the insight! 🙂

[@pmz]

@Kaylee Pershing - thank you for sharing your story! Yes, if speaking too quickly is causing disruptions in your life, knowing that you can change and then actually taking action to do so is incredible. Keep us posted on how it goes. And be kind and patient with yourself!

Hi. Let me share some technique for slower and confidently speaking . Imagine that you are explaining things in front of the kindergarten . So its nesessary to speak slower for the children and to try to sound more expresively and understandable . That also reduces the presere of the speraking in front of audience - those are just some kids , you know ;)

​@@pmz ❤

[@787Speedbrakes]

When we’re under pressure, feeling nervous, we release adrenaline. This, in turn, shuts down a big chunk of our pre-frontal cortex in the brain. It just so happens that the Pre-Frontal Cortex is what controls our speech. It’s why in a big argument or standing in front of a crowd of people, you can’t think what to say! One technique I was taught was to take a large breath, it helps control your heart rhythm which in turn makes you feel better. I love this method of talking at the rate you would type. When you talk slower, you can also think clearer too.

[@ytchannel-howtooutgrowstutteri]

Great video! I agree with the video that slowing down speech could help outgrow stuttering. The positive effect is that speaking slower makes you feel more comfortable, whereas other people who speak slower have more time to double down on doubt to say a feared letter which means that 'confidence that you can move articulators during a speech block' helps in outgrowing stuttering

[@brianp9054]

I alwasy heard complaints about how fast I talk, so finally I decided to start slowing down and after watching this video I measured my normal speed rate and I got 250 words per minute as my normal rate. I also type fast but not that fast so I'm going to try this excersie. My goal is to get an speach rate of 150 words per minute.

[@betr8]

Thanks man. I have been talking fast in Arabic for so long and have been finally getting the hang of talking slowly, but after learning and speaking in English the same problem occurred, and I noticed the same while learning French; like it's contagious or something, but this video have taught me a lot, so thank you man.

I think of thee! - my thoughts do twine and bud About thee, as wild vines, about a tree, Put out broad leaves, and soon there's nought to see Except the struggling green which hides the wood. Yet. O my palm-tree, be it understood I will not have my thoughts instead of thee Who art dearer, better! Rather, instantly Renew thy presence; as a strong tree should, Rustle thy boughs and set thy trunk all bare, And let these bands of greenery, which insphere thee Drop heavily down, - burst, shattered, everywhere! Because, in this deep joy to see and hear thee And breathe within thy shadow a new air, I do not think of thee - I am too near thee.

[@West1010]

Speaking slower is also good for approaching women or any starnger for that matter. The approacher has to carry the conversation, and if you can slow your speech down, you can fill more time with the same amount of words. Filler words (like, umm) tend to get replaced with pauses, which can build anticipation more effectively. This makes you come across more polished and smooth. Using short pauses as filler gives you more time to think, which leads to less mistakes and better thought out ideas. The listener tends to hang on to each word more than a bunch of word vomit. Your pronunciation becomes clearer. It shows you're more in control of yours faculties and emotions even if on a subconscious level. I'm sure there's more benefits but there's a few!

[@InDefenceOfIslam]

I just tried writing technique and I already love my voice! Off course I need to know how to take away the apparent 'pause sounds' between words

Thanks, I'm working hard to become better and more understanding.

[@versatilemind7184]

I’m a very passionate person. When I speak it gets real ugly lol. I barely finish the word I’m on to get to the next one. I know it stems from me having the feeling of not being heard. People can be rude and impatient. I think it’s important for us in the fast talking community to have clearance to have the floor to speak. If people interrupt, we ask for a second to finish. And when we feel like a conversation I’d about to happen l, remember to breathe and speak clearly . Good luck everyone.
