The Best Way to Talk to Me

Mostly writing this to iterate it to myself, but I think it's important, and if you'll be coming to me for advice, this is MUCH MORE significant than you'd probably assume.

If you have something you want to talk to me about that you'd consider valuable information or important, the best way to talk to me about these things is via EMAIL, or less-preferably, text messaging.

Why? Simply, you'll get much more valuable information.

I'm not the clearest person to talk to on the fly. Sometimes I get my point across well, but more often than not, I don't speak clearly. The power of words is phenomenal. The correct words can be quite literally a map to your goal, while the wrong words can sometimes set you farther from your goal.

Since our definitions of words vary slightly, it's important to have the time to choose the right words when talking. Typically, this only takes a 5-10 second pause, but can sometimes take a while and occasionally will lead to exploring dictionary.com.

As an extrovert, I'll never take time to choose the correct words this while talking (okay, I do plan on encorporating this into my personality in the future, but you get what I mean.) Instead, I'll fumble around until I get to my point. Email me, and you'll get more valuable information.
