how to be a better communicator

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 07:53:15 GMT

there are only a few things that i feel matter here, and this is opinionated

before i say anything else, lemme say why you should listen to me. I've trained more than 5,000+ professionals, students & professors on various topics from tech to selfhelp. Which has got me awards from IIITs IIMs and many orgs. I've worked with clients accross India, Singapore, Germany, US, Autralia. So i guess i know a little.

HERE ARE SOME RULES THAT HELPED:

find and more importantly don't let go any oppurtunity to speak on small stages (doesn't mean you yap everywhere, or speak stupid things, but don't let go oppurtunities)
RULE2: Speak good or remain silent (because a lot of time we do more harm than good, when we speak mindlessly or speak for the sake of speaking)
trust me the only reason you'll speak is one stage is because you've spoken on a previous stage, and that will make you further speak on all possible stages, so you need a starting point
personally i don't feel you should consume more movies for the sake that your english will improve (because the thing that will improves is your ability to understand/interpet english [as your brain is constantly trying to figure out what happening in the movie scene]),
but shift all the content you consume in english

[eg: if you like to watch cooking videos, start subscribing to people who making that content BUT in english]

More importantly surround yourself with people who share similar interest in learning language. [this is gonna impact you the most, as the env is stronger than will power.]
i suggest you make a daily habit to spend a small portion of time (min 15-30mins a day) to learn something about communication from yt [trust me you're going to learn more by being more consistent and showing up to everyday.]

i think this is pretty much it, don't overcomplicate things, make a decision on when you're starting to implement this

Set an alarm right now when you want to start or better start now.

We're all dopamine addicts.

We're all dopamine addicts.

The question is what kind?

Fast dopamine is easy. Scrolling, bingeing, it's junk food for your brain. The high hits hard. The crash hits even harder. And five minutes later, you're back looking for more.

Slow dopamine is different. It’s the buzz you feel after finishing a long book. It's the pride in cooking a meal from scratch. It asks more of you up front, but the reward actually lasts.

The problem is that most of us are so hooked on fast dopamine that slow dopamine barely registers anymore.

Silence feels uncomfortable.

Boredom feels painful.

If something isn’t instantly stimulating, we bail.

So what do we do?

The solution isn’t to try and go cold turkey (trust me, I've tried).

It's to gradually shift where you’re sourcing your dopamine from.

This week, pick one fast dopamine habit and replace it with something from this list.

Just one swap.

Instead of scrolling before bed, read a chapter of a book.

Instead of popping in your headphones, try walking in silence.

Instead of ordering takeout, cook a meal at home.

Your brain will resist. It'll tell you this is boring, that you need your phone, that you should quit.

That's withdrawal.

Stay with it anyway.

Then next week, replace another one. And another.

You're not trying to be perfect. You're trying to retrain your system to recognize what satisfaction actually feels like.

The shift happens slowly. But it does happen.
