Speaking
is an art, an art of listening, of carefully observing your environment, of
thinking critically. It
is one of the key traits through which a person is understood. Imagine being a
teacher and not being able to put your thoughts clearly in front of the pupil. More
or less, I believe, this becomes the reason for students to not be able to
understand the context of their subjects.
Often,
not speaking clearly enough happens when one is preoccupied. This again can be
done away with, by speaking out your doubts, problems, issues to the right
people at the right time. It is a cycle.
There
used to be a time when speech was silver and silence gold. But now, in a world
of constant negotiation, speaking up is as important as keeping silence. One who
masters speaking - excels, whatever be the work. It is an important skill that
should be honed for self-development.
Diplomacy
is an integral part for a nation to have healthy ties with others and is
achieved by appropriate dialogue, again a form of speech. A good speech can take
you out of trouble, while a bad one can lend you into one.
It
is as an important attribute for success, as is hard work, but unfortunately, personal attributes are often underrated. Here comes the use of such articles to
emphasize how important traits like these are.
When
I was a child, I often used to keep silence, expecting others to understand
without explanation. It took me some time to figure out that it is very
important to acknowledge people of my needs and deeds. Otherwise, we are often
mistaken, judged and considered weak.
Since
humans are social animals, they need speech to socialize. In
all speech is a form of expression, the more effective it is, the more you
lighten up your environment.
