Lass das Telefon klingeln, Carsten, geh nicht hin! Du hast ja ab heute Urlaub. Übermorgen kommt Christine aus Berlin. Dann fahrt ihr gemeinsam weg und genießt zehn Tage lang den Frühling und eure junge Liebe. Nein, nicht ans Telefon gehen! Glaub mir, das ist kein guter Fall für dich. Interessiert dich etwa das scharfe S? Na, siehst du. Und Besserwisser kannst du doch auch nicht leiden, oder? Also bitte, lass es! Hör mal, wenn du jetzt ans Telefon gehst, dann passiert was Schlimmes! Carsten? "Ja hallo? Hier ist Carsten Tsara."

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.
