The word "think" is wishy washy.

Here's a tip for my fellow DREAMers.

When giving a speech, having a casual conversation, or more importantly conducting business, refrain absolutely from using the word "think" it makes you sound insecure, not confident, and unreliable.

Instead, omit the damn word.

"I think the most important takeaway from my speech is that frugality , regardless of how cheap people may think of you to be, you will come out richer in the end..."

Now remove the garbage word "think" and see the difference

"The most important takeaway from my speech is that frugality , regardless of how cheap people may think of you to be, you will come out richer in the end..."

Use WILL instead

"I think the fish and chips with a Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA sound good."

Remove the wishy washy THINK

"I will have the fish and chips with a Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA."


"I think this $100 face wash will be good for that disgusting pizza face you have."
vs
"I know this $100 face wash will be good for that disgusting pizza face you have."


See there you have it. Next time, monitor your speech and when you catch yourself about to say "think" remove that shit.

Another tip from yours truly BestBefore1984. Building confidence of DREAMers around the world. You're welcome in advance.
