Why You Struggle to ARTICULATE Your THOUGHTS Clearly. 5 TRUTHS!

Do you struggle to articulate your thoughts clearly? When you speak, do you get your thoughts muddled and your thoughts come out in a jumbled way? Do you find that your thoughts are clear in your mind, but when you go to speak, they're not clear anymore?!
Being able to articulate your thoughts clearly doesn't come naturally to many people. In fact, most people are unable to articulate their thoughts well. Sometimes it's because you're trying too hard. Other times it's because you haven't put enough thought into what you want to say before you start to speak.
There are a number of reasons as to why you can't articulate your thoughts clearly. In this video, I share 7 of the most common reasons as to why you struggle to articulate your thoughts clearly.

Anxiety would just shut my brain down during normal meetings where I had to brief. If the stakes were very high, adrenaline would help overcome. Day to day stuff, I’d get so nervous I’d lose track of my thoughts mid sentence.

[@superkikaymom6910]

Same with my problem. Been struggling of this since childhood. Is there a cure?

[@99.99_]

Same and it’s getting worse when i’m stressed

[@ap8441]

This just happened to me at an interview for a job I so desperately want but because I forgot what I was trying to say like 3 or 4 times I may have blew it. It was for a store manager position, I have years of experience in management and in this field. I feel like because this happened towards the end of an almost hour interview I bunked it.

[@earlem9771]

@@superkikaymom6910 There's no easy cure. You need emotional behavioral therapy to help you learn how to calm your anxiety and focus on your objective, which is communicating your idea. People who don't seem to have the problem you do have learned to effectively do this at some point in their lives.

[@driversl]

Honestly - invest in yourself and talk to someone about how you feel. There are solutions out there.

[@althalos9410]

My biggest annoyance is that I always realize what I should have said and how easy it would have been, but never on the spot, only after the conversation has already taken place. That I'm always best at articulating my thoughts when I'm alone and not under any pressure, but I guess that is due to anxiousness. But thank you for the video! Thinking on the spot is something I'm trying to work on, and you gave some good advice!

[@kitkatkim98]

That’s a telltale sign that you need to take a bit longer to think through what you would like to say. I have the same issue. I’m an impulsive person; taking moments to think and process is the antidote ☺️

[@uchi2226]

I feel you. It's hard always thinking that I'd get judged. Even after being given the chance to speak in a group, I'd overthink what I told them. It's madness sometimes, but yeah really taking the moment before speaking and consequently speaking slowly is what I'm trying to improve on. Sometimes I want to speak fast because I don't want to lose the idea, only to confuse others, and just hope someone catches it and repeats it to me because even I have no idea what I said lol

[@fleeceshawl1600]

I feel you too! When I am away from the event or conversation all the vocabulary comes back in full force. This life!!!

[@80NG5]

Same

[@-1lovethesea]

Don’t worry about it. You’ll improve with time when you stop caring.

[@Hagalazii]

Some people are good at talking, some people are good at listening and asking. Both styles can guide a conversation toward their destination. This is what I've learned.

[@mhraena]

You're right but one must know both of the things. What say mate?

[@beingboomlovinglife3474]

What do u do when the talker is a bad listener?

[@sadepennbrook]

Turns out my inarticulation was early onset dementia at 35. One of the key clues is when common advice like this video doesn't apply to you and specifically my inability to retain anything I was told or read no matter how many times I tried to learn it. That and recurrent brain fog. I'm literally losing my mind until I don't recognize who I am anymore. I learned some people just have undiagnosed autism or language disorders. If you struggle despite advice, consider your brain's health.

[@irenemasek9138]

Yikes sorry to hear that?❤ What are things that you do that have been helping you feel more like yourself?

[@morganjonasson2947]

​@@user-th1qn6uo3k That's not quite true. You can still articulate full paragraphs for SOME concepts. Like, how hard is it explaining what dementia means? Take myself as example. People often praise me for being well articulated when I explain simple concepts like how to think about finances and stuff, because thanks to my autism I have an natural instinct to explain everything in a very overly detailed manner. For simple concepts i seem articulate because I explain vague things with overly detailed metaphores, painting a clear picture to the listener. However, as a programmer, it means I literally can't explain how my code works in a summorized manner. Lets say a code base has 10000 lines of code. How do I explain this code to someone who doesn't understand code? It would be like trying to explain to a five year old how to paint an exact copy of Mona Lisa without showing the picture, but because it would take days to communicate every pixel of the image and a five year old has like, 30 seconds or less in attention span, the end result is a stick figure that merely resembles a human but is nowhere near similar to the original painting.

[@smk4990]

My mom has dementia I really hope whoever wrote this comment does not have dementia at this young age. Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease is a terrible disease and strips people of their personality and cognitive functions, it’s not a disease to take lightly and I won’t even wish it on my worst enemy.

[@geenesmern6830]

​@@irenemasek9138 I believe she is telling the truth because I can write a complete paragraph, but not most of the time.

[@gaelle4328]

My tip who has been through some of it you might want to take a look at clemastine which is a common allergy medicin that research has shown can help, also omega 3 and 9 has also helped. Not magic cure but can help. ( Background MS that has commonalities ( plaques) with Dementia ( alzheimers) and Parkinson. Big hug if wanted.

[@jessejules2092]

The problem with taking time to think about what you want to say, is that if an idea suddenly comes while someone else is talking you don't want to be thinking about what you want to say because you might miss a vital piece of information from the person talking.

[@andoniades]

Yup!

[@AjeebAurat]

Write it down! I had the same problem but now I just write it down and it helps 😊

[@Freaky0Nina]

so mid conversation you pull out a notebook, put your idea down all the while listening to the other person?

[@andoniades]

@@Freaky0Nina yea, and by the time the thought is scribbled, you forget the rest of what's said lol

[@beingboomlovinglife3474]

​@@AjeebAurat its the same as reciting in ur head what ur going to say while someone is speaking. Ur not giving them full attention so that's rude and ur just focused on what u wanna say and miss what was said. The conversation is happening u currently u can't be writing things down..thats even ruder my god

[@PromoCodeLady]

For me overthinking blocks my existence. Knowing too much and not enough is the death and life of me.

[@lorrainedzeka]

Totally hear you, I can relate

[@angelolivares8754]

Reading and deep breathing are the ones that work best for me. Also having a constant internal dialog this way you can practice articulation with yourself, sometimes I like to imagine I'm explaining my ideas to other people and this helps a lot too

[@nekto34]

#4 is one of my biggest pet peeves. I actually ended up working with a whole bunch of people who would only converse using industry jargon, and obviously tried so hard to sound intelligent and very educated. All that resulted in them discussing the same subject, same idea, for like an hour (and I did time that!).

[@just-a-fella3212]

Were they social science types such as psychs, counsellors, social workers?

[@InsanitysApex]

Pompous pontificators proudly prostelytizing patronizing passages precipitously upon paltry, prudent peasants. Preposterous!

[@calisongbird]

That is also a HUGE pet peeve for me also. People can be so pretentious - it comes from personal insecurity. Jargon used judiciously and occasionally as a shortcut to certain concepts (the entire purpose of jargon) is fine. But when it’s used excessively, it bespeaks arrogance and pretentiousness. The speaker is not trying to actually communicate to be understood, but just to inflate his/her own ego.

[@titamartinez162]

😂

[@Jazzyjamjam]

This drove me nuts back in school 😭

[@iloveplumpgrannies174]

To me, my inability to articulate my thoughts stems from my anxiety. I am socially awkward, when I am talking and when I notice that they're not really interested in my thoughts, I simply dismiss myself before they dismiss me coz it hurts whenever it happens to me. Due to that, I am unable to fully express what I have in mind. Now, I have developed a habit to only answer the question/s being asked and nothing more. Because of this, people think I'm snobbish but that is the furthest from the truth. I like having conversations with people but my problem is my social anxiety and my inability to articulate my thoughts that wouldn't bore the person I'm talking to. I can articulate properly and I can maintain a conversation with the people who I consider are close to me. It's completely different when I'm talking to strangers, colleagues, or people I know but seldom talk to.

[@larissaforde7885]

I can relate to this 100%

[@nathanharmon8971]

Weirdly, I’ve found that I’ve developed a stutter as I’ve grown older (30s currently). I think it’s because I’ve got a traffic jam of information from brain to mouth. The second tip is really helpful. Stop. Pick what you want to get across. Make a plan to get there. Then speak slowly.

[@akuskus]

Same. And it is kind of distressing because I am often noticing people in lower-skilled places being much better in verbal communication. It probably indeed is the constant information overload that has taken its toll on linguistic parts of the brain.

[@ericsohn5084]

Is English your first language?

[@nathanharmon8971]

@@ericsohn5084 yes, but It didn’t happen to me until I became fluent in another language.

[@ericsohn5084]

[@primomuzik]

Same issue, I thought i was broken. English is my fourth language btw, i have no issue whatsoever in speaking it, but as soon as i start with my native language, i can’t make sense of what I’m saying

[@jessicafb5398]

[@NoName-tj8dm]

How did it go ?

[@miskerassefa595]

1. jump to fast 2. Your trying to communicate a lot at once 3. You don't understand the question 4. You try to sound more intelligent 5. You use the same vocabulary

[@austinhernandez2716]

I have social anxiety. Sometimes I struggle just to speak. So that's one reason for me.

[@Rainmakers84]

Agree. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than you speak and remove all doubt. Ben Franklin.

[@pokeystar1980]

I've always struggled with this. When I was younger I unfortunately was always around very assertive people who spoke up at every opportunity. You sort of just learn to fade away into the background and listen to how well they articulate and think....If only I could communicate like that. Now KZbin just shadowbans everything I say anyway. Great video!!!

[@morganjonasson2947]

Well, you are already half way just by avoiding those assertive people. I am usually good at explaining things but as soon as you meet these bessewissers that talk over you because they think they know better, then I have a special way of communicating with them. One tip is the way you word things. I usually let these assertive people speak their A4 page, memorizing some of the claims they make, build a question on top of that, and then ask such people "Okay, lets say for the sake of the argument that . Then how come ", then he will spit out another A4 page of bullshit and you will just listen and repeat the same algorithm, until he either freaks out, become silent or starts agreeing with you. That trick works well for me because it means you can ignore 90% of what the person is saying, keeping only a few sentences in your head, and you will have plenty of time forming a counter argument while they speak into a brick wall.

[@threearrows2248]

I think I just recently lost a client, which would have brought my business a lot of work, because I answered the phone and tried to give them all the information on a case before I had actually put together my analysis for them. I probably tried to explain too much before I had put together concrete ideas, and sounded dumb, for lack of a better word. Good advice to slow down and focus. Kicking myself, but now I can practice this.

[@toofy7253]

Wow, this is like 100 percent my problem. Its my biggest struggle when anxious. When anxious, everything else fails with speaking clearly fo people who need well summarized talking points

[@tonykelpie]

A very common and sometimes serious problem in communication is people not having thought exactly what they want to say before they start to speak. So - think more before you speak, write down the precise words, or at least the outline, before you start talking

[@jessejules2092]

By the time I would put my pen to paper, meeting would be over.

[@davenewman6402]

This video is actually profound. I immediately subscribed to your channel and would check out your videos after my meeting today. I noticed that when I finish talking, most people don't understand me, and I there may not be opportunity to clarify.

[@kararonin]

Thanks for watching! I'd recommend asking throughout your speech if the other person if following you. Eg "Are you following what I'm saying?" Or "Do you know what I mean?".

[@donaldmeckanzy]

@@kararonin I will be sure to do this. Starting from my meeting this afternoon. Thanks Kara.

[@igoretski]

Thank you. Very good explanation. I have so many ideas right, now. Like this could not only help in business meetings but also in partnership communication and conflict solving, and maybe "Miss Teen USA 2007 - South Carolina" should have come to your training first.

[@Convoafrica]

Very Helpful...

I feel like 1 is my main problem, but even when I do spend time to understand and plan my thoughts, I still get something wrong. Every. time. If I had to relay info like "The dog jumped 2 meters", for some reason I'd relay the info as "2 feet". It's not dyslexia, it's literally carelessness and I don't know how to get better. Even if I study that phrase for 20 minutes, I'm still getting something wrong and I wish I knew what to do. I think because I've always had people over-correcting me (now and in the past) and I'm subconsciously very anxious and fearful to get things wrong. But I do it anyway.

[@kararonin]

Fear can cripple your thoughts and your speaking too.

[@bunn228]

I have this too. I often say the opposite of what I mean without realising. Or I just completely lose the word. Using your example I'd forget "meters", completely gone, like it never existed. I was also overcorrected a lot when I was young so I just don't feel confident in any facts that come out of my mouth.

For me, I have issues in very large groups -- say speaking at a conference in the audience. I think I am triggered, thinking about school. I also just don't like large groups. I feel a little overwhelmed and confused unless I am actually leading the group. I definitely am experiencing fight or flight during these times. The other thing I do is ramble. People do say I am articulate, but I know, given that I do have ADHD, that I go off topic and make associations that really don't need to be brought into the conversation. I think I will try your method of three. That might work. Thanks!

Hi Kara. I struggle with round robin introductions in a board room. That said, once I get started I can go on and be fairly aggressive, articulate and assertive. I can be attentive and listen well. So on and so forth. However, as I said.... its the introduction that just boils my heart out.

[@kararonin]

This is a common one. I will be publishing a video on introductions which should help you out.

@@kararonin I look forward to it. Appreciated.

[@higherspirit1]

Great advice, would be even better if you provide examples for each (less articulate vs more articulate for each point)
