Speak With Success!

Learn to speak with the voice of success. Your voice represents you and gives you power. A confident tone commands respect and gives your words weight.

First, be aware of your breathing and enjoy this vital pleasure. Take deep breaths and consciously relax. Let go of all muscular tension. Breath is a cosmic kiss. Be fully present, fully engaged in moment.

Be aware of your diaphragm and lungs as you exhale completely using all your breath and then refill your whole body with new air.

Now keep your pitch low, your throat open as you speak. A calm, mellow, resonant voice is more pleasing to the ear than a tinny, high-pitched squeak. Think of the rich tones of a cello.

Experience your voice. Make a pleasing sound and cultivate it. Practice enunciating your words. Project your voice to reach across the room or to whom you intend it to reach. Speaking with your mouth in the position of a slight smile helps your words come out clearly.

Always remember to ask questions and listen. Questions stimulate conversation and involve your audience.

Get a response! Keep dialogue interesting and let questions and responses volley between participators. A good conversation means that the people you're speaking stay involved in the dialogue.

As you make use of your true voice, you'll be amazed at the effect it has on your own confidence as well as its persuasive power. Be comfortable with your own voice so that you can tune in to conversations from casual to corporate and be heard.
