The best writers read their work out loud before they submit it. Doing so helps them catch phrases that look okay, but sound weird. It helps them catch more proofing mistakes. Doing it also helps them double down on what’s most important. No more and no fewer words than they need.
When a boxer is learning new moves, each move is often numbered to help them coordinate combos. What helps the boxer out most though isn’t thinking about the numbers, it’s saying it out loud as she performs the combo. There’s far less mess up, far less downtime and much more speed and growth of endurance.
When you’re ready to make a commitment; it’s far better to say it out loud, too. It gathers accountability, defines what the ego will work toward and solidifies the commitment in our mind. Anything less is just thinking about it.
Stay Positive & Say It
