Better to overcommunicate than be weird and avoid saying what’s meant. 🫩

What I have found is that wording things too in depth results in it being hard to follow along and keep track of the important bits (non important being context which I find important but whatever), and when I shorten it, I would struggle to actually convey what I mean.

The problem is I over communicate by saying exactly what I mean and I’m still told to communicate less 😔

They can go find less, then. Don’t lessen yourself for those who refuse to broaden themselves.

The issue is being concise which is a skill I’m still trying to work on. Cutting out the noise while still having the message be clear. Practice typing out something you want to say, and if it’s long, see if you can shorten sentences or take some out. Go over it a few times. Another thing is if there are multiple points to something. Make note of them separately, and say or send one at a time so the other person can process. You can specify “I do have more to say but don’t want to overload you.”

These are what have been helping me lately. Communication has gotten a bit better and I think the only reason I even discovered the issue and how to fix it is because I had someone that could clearly explain, and that also sometimes sent essays lol. (I give all this advice on how to not over explain while I ran out of space to type twice hah)
