You can have the most compelling message in the world, but if your words aren't clear, it will be misunderstood or lost altogether.
Sloppy speech is a real credibility killer.
Sharpen your clarity of speech with these four exercises:
Jaw: Stretch the jaw wide as you say EE-AW-AH (the ‘surprised donkey’)
Lips: Flutter the lips with "brrrrr" sounds
Tongue: Say, “Little Lily Langtree licked eleven lovely little lemon lollipops”
Soft Palate: Say, “UNG UNG UNG” like you are PacMan in the arcade game eating the dots!
Just like physical exercise, your speech organs need workouts and warm-ups. When these are toned, your speech becomes crisp and clear.
