It's late afternoon enjoying coffee with friends to catch up in your favorite Cafe.Topic heats up, in the middle of an intriguing conversation, knowledge exchange in full swing.Ideas roaming freely like village mongrels at midnight all of a sudden "boom" experience shattered by an "Okey".
Majority of us have found ourselves in this situation, a harmless word diluting communication.A vague term that doesn't convey much information becoming a verbal tick.
H ow often do you use "Okey" in a conversation? Are you conscious of the situations in which you tend to use it?
Breaking a habit takes time and effort.Try new words like Certainly, absolutely, indeed, of course, no problem if you are in agreement.Got it, I see, understood, makes sense to show understanding.Received, noted, confirmed, roger that when acknowledging.Fantastic, wonderful, excellent, terrific to express enthusiasm.
Try it, remember be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories.
