Speech patterns are old, old habits we have engraved in our biological and psychological systems. o change
these patterns requires effort and dedication and skill. However the greatest factor influencing this change, is an
inner motivation from the individual to really make it happen.
Without this motivation, a trainer can give a million techniques, but they will not work. he individual is
responsible for WANING his/her speech to improve, only then will the attention and effort follow, leading to
mastery of the skill.
