I promise you - so this for 60 seconds and you’ll enunciate better.

People ask me all the time, "How can I sound more clear when I speak?" And here is the fastest fix I know, it's almost stupidly simple, which is why it works. It's called the Pendrel. So you grab a pen, clean it, and then put it between your teeth like this. Now grab a book, and then with the pen in place, you want to read the paragraph out loud. So you read the paragraph out loud, slowly, on purpose, over-pronounce everything. Do it for about 60 seconds. And then you take the pen out, you might want to clean it again, and keep reading. You will feel a difference immediately. Your mouth opens more, your words land cleaner. You stop mumbling without even trying. Now here's why this works. Clear speech signals calm authority, and calm authority is magnetic. You don't sound rushed, you don't sound unsure, you sound like someone who expects to be listened to. So do this once a day, one minute, it's a small habit that makes a disproportionate difference in how seriously people take you.
