Stop saying UMM and AHH

Replace your UMMs & AHHs with this!

Don't be afraid to pause between your sentences. Not only does it give you time to think, it also gives the audience time to process what you've just said 👊

The problem with pausing in a conversation is that most likely the person you are talking to will interrupt you because they thought you were done talking.

Listening to interviews and hearing people say um is so annoying I can't even listen when they say that

This is fantastic! Esp the analogy of music. ❤

"Notice how you're thinking about what i'm saying?" I just had a whole reevaluation of my life 😭

[davidlilley]

Finally someone thinking the same way when they umm and and ahh they either sound like they're dumb all the lying thinking up a possible load of BS to say I totally agree with the pause hopefully more people will start to do that eventually

The word of "umm" or "ahh" means the "ahh" is its scary or creeping you out and the umm is that you are thinking what to say when your hiding something

“LOL, it’s not a confidence issue, my friend. It is literally more of a stuttering issue that’s induced by the brain moving in conversation faster than your mouth is able to speak. Obviously, it’s one of the easiest things to get rid of because it’s not an actual problem. It mostly persists in freestyle dialogue rather than a pre-written script or casual conversation. If you try to take a lot of pauses, you’ll just open up more opportunities of losing control of the conversation before getting your point across. The other person will be thinking about things that interest them or alludes them to gain a better understanding if it’s information-based. If it’s not an information-based conversation and it’s completely platonic, you’ll probably come off as being on a spectrum since it doesn’t take a large output to engage in platonic conversation.”
