Conversationally Speaking


Most people think that some of us are born with the “gift of gab” and some of us aren’t. But the truth is that there is no “gift of gab.” People who are good at conversation just
know a few simple skills that anyone can learn.
These skills are like tools. Imagine trying to hammer a nail—with a screwdriver. Or cutting wood—with a shovel. Very difficult. It would take you five times as long, and you’d still end up doing a bad job. A screwdriver and a shovel simply aren’t the right tools. But, with the right tools—a hammer and a saw—you could do these jobs well and with very little effort.
