<p>A patient goes to see the doctor and says &#8220;I sound <strong>lousy</strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Doctor asks &#8220;What are your <strong>symptoms</strong>?&#8221;</p>
<p>Patient says: &#8220;I&#8217;d rather <strong>jump off a bridge</strong> than <strong>speak in public;                  </strong>my<strong> favorite </strong>words are uh, um, ya&#8217; know and like;                                                          people look dazed &amp; <strong>confused</strong> when I speak;                                                                          my 30-<strong>second</strong> commercial takes 30 <strong>minutes</strong>.</p>
<p>Finally the doctor wakes up, apologizes for <strong>snoring</strong> and says:</p>
<p>&#8220;The diagnosis is communicationitis; the prescription is working with <strong>Dale Klein</strong>.&#8221;</p>

<p><em>Simon says</em>: Please <strong>stand.</strong></p>
<p><em>Simon says</em>: Cross your arms in <strong>front</strong> of your chest.</p>
<p><em>Simon says</em>: Recross your arms placing the <strong>opposite</strong> arm on top.</p>
<p>What you&#8217;ve just experienced is stepping <strong>outside</strong> your comfort zone by changing a <strong>longstanding</strong> habit.</p>
<p>Much of our communication reflects longstanding <strong>habits.</strong> Problem is those longstanding habits lead to complacency, which leads to <strong>mediocrity</strong>.</p>
<p>Mediocre communication <strong>doesn&#8217;t</strong> increase your business.</p>
<p>As your <strong>speech coach</strong>, I help you step <strong>outside</strong> your comfort zone by <strong>modifying</strong> your longstanding communication habits.</p>
<p>The result promises to be a <strong>sound investment</strong>.</p>
