Blocks

re: talker’s block

English is not my first language, plus not been a good talker really put me in a disadvantage position in the corporate America. To improve, I have been doing almost exactly what Godin suggested in his post, talker’s block. And it does help!

I started practicing talking in meetings, try to express myself in a more clear and precise way. I know that I still have a long way to go but I’ve noticed that I am doing better and I have more confidence now. Same thing with writing, I have been reading at least one article, chapter or a post every day, analyze the material and write down my own view.

And here is a secret… The key thing for me personally, beside all the practicing to break both the talker’s and writer’s blocks is to learn how not to give a flying fuck of what others think!
