Editor's Notes
Gossiping
Judging
Negativity
Complaining- form of negativity
Excuses –Blame though
Embroidery/ exaggeration –leads to lying
Dogmatism – confusion of facts with opinions
Register – voice should come from the chest – more depth – more authenticity/power
Timbre- rich smooth warm voices
Prosody – singsong, high lows in pitches- don’t be monotonous
Pace – silence is powerful! Slow pace
Pitch – weight to what to say
Volume- too much is noise; too low is irritating
