“Do you want to be competent and dangerous or vague and useless?” —Jordan B Peterson

The difference lies in your ability to communicate.

Here’s why:

𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Clear communication:

→ cuts through noise,
→ earns respect,
→ makes people listen.

𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿

Being precise in your thoughts and words:

→ opens doors,
→ changes hearts and minds.

𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

Speaking your truth:

→ is a form of personal responsibility.
→ Say what you mean.
→ Mean what you say.
→ And if you’re in the wrong, own it.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿:

→ Pay attention to what you say.
→ Craft your words with intention.
→ Align what you say with who you are.
→ Drop the fillers like 'um', 'ah', 'you know'.

Clarity, precision, and accountability aren’t just communication tools. They’re life skills for success.

𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 to be unmistakably clear.
𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 to be powerfully competent.

𝗣𝗦: What’s your go-to filler word when you don’t know what to say next? Drop it in the comments.
