Welcome to Shoshin, my journal of lessons from this journey we call "life".

Perspective

" Speak clearly, if you speak at all; carve every word before you let it fall. "

- Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Story

It's no shocker that we enjoy listening to great speakers and people who can get their point across effectively.

A few days ago, I was amongst two speakers.

As they spoke, I began to admire one of the speakers more, a man who spoke with conviction, and eliminated the use of filler words like umms and ahhs.

The more I paid attention, the more interesting he became, so I set my eyes out to speak to him.

We had a short but insightful conversation. And it all started because I was drawn to how he spoke.

​

As I came to reflect upon my own life, the better I spoke, the better my life got.

Our communication skills are the bridge between who you are and how the world sees you.

If you can’t articulate your thoughts, your true potential remains hidden.​

Ascend

Learn how to speak.

Start recording yourself, analyze your speech, and refine your delivery. The way you speak shapes the way the world listens.

​

Remember, its who you become on the journey.
