Are you stretching your vocabulary?

Have you fallen back to the basic 600 words or so that we can fall back into? Many of us get lazy and continue to make shortcuts and easing our load, unconscientiously even. What is wrong with that. It limits the words we have and lends itself to repeating some of the same words over and over. The problem with that is it becomes a distraction to the listener. Doesn't matter if the listener has a trained ear or not, they notice something.

Wouldn't you rather the remember the good traits you have?

Some of the culprit words or phrases might be:
kay
ok
but
so
things
like
gonna

Give it some thought. If you feel you'd like to expand that vocabulary then why not come and visit a Toastmasters Club.
