The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Most of us do it from time to time.

Some of us do it regularly.

Some of us do it when we make presentations to large groups. 

PS: There's Power in the Pause...people will not be distracted & people will know your brain has other you know stuff ah in um it.

PPS: One way to replace Bad Habits is trying New Things...but, you must know you have a Bad Habit before you can fix it. Record yourself...check it out. Then monitor your speaking and replace those fill-in words with pauses.

Habits are like rivers. If your leave them alone they more or less follow the path of least resistance.

Habits are so integral to our success, we cannot leave them to chance. We must work on them before they work on us.
