In this short video, I remind you of the incredible power of the pause and highlight three ideal places to add pauses to your speech.
Mark Twain once said, “The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause.”
Placing well timed pauses in your speech will not only allow listeners to absorb your words and assign meaning to them, it also adds credibility and makes you appear confident and in control.
