The power of words - the secret to communication

 Have you ever sent a text to someone , immediately regretted it and then watched in horror as the little “Read” notification sealed your fate? Or tried to crack a joke only for everyone to stare at you liked you have confessed to a crime? Yeah, communication is tricky 

Why is communication important, you ask?

Here’s the thing- words are powerful. They help making friends, answering the questions in class, winning arguments against your siblings ( without starting a World War III ) and to get you out of awkward situations. Strong communication isn’t just about talking ; it’s about expressing yourself in a way to make people listen and understand you. 

The impact of your words :- 

1. Words can build or break relationships-a simple “thank you” or “I appreciate you” can make a persons day but careless words can leave scars. So treat someone how you want to be treated. 

2. Confidence with clarity - ever felt nervous while speaking or stuttered while you spoke? That’s normal! But when you organise your thoughts and express them well, confidence will come to you. 

3. Watch your tone and body language- sometimes it’s not what you say but how you say it that matters. Your tone and expressions can change the meaning of your words.

Simple ways to improve your communication skills:-

1. Think before you speak 

2. Listen more than you talk

3. Keep it simple

4. Practice  makes perfect 

5. Adapt to your audience 

6. Be open to feedback’s

7. Have a strong vocabulary and clear thinking 

8. Read and write more


Talking to people skill fully determines the quality of your social life and personality At the end of the day, communication is like WiFi—when it’s strong, everything runs smoothly, but when it’s weak, things get frustrating fast. So, next time you talk to someone, remember: listen more, think before you speak, and maybe—just maybe—double-check that text before hitting send. Your future self will thank you!

The one degree change theory It’s those small, almost insignificant changes in our life ( good or bad) that over time leads to significant and an impactful difference.  If a ship starts from Los Angeles to New York but its course is shifted by even one degree you would reach a completely different city- miles away from your actual destination.The same rule applies in real life.The small changes that may seem insignificant but over time it can change your whole trajectory. 1 degree of good change - success  Eg - Drinking more water ➡️  more energy ➡️ better workouts ➡️ healthier body 1 degree of bad change- slow decli...

One moment I feel very productive ,motivated and ready to wake up early.The next moment I am scrolling through YouTube and feeling so unproductive. As a teen managing school, exams, extracurricular ,friends and goals may seem impossible.But setting goals is not being overwhelmed or having it all figured out-it’s about growing from your mistakes and living the life as you want to.So if you have a tough time setting goals ,this is how I try to set goals(and achieve them)and navigate through the chaos and challenges life brings. 1.
