Stop talking - a try
Man can fly to the moon and explore the universe. Only permanent speakers can talk constantly and no one defends themselves and no one invents a device, with which they automatically fly to the moon after 15 minutes.
Signal: There are advice and books on this topic. I often miss the MUT to do that. An example: in a discussion someone starts at the Stone Age. To the point? Problems in school? Of course it takes a long time. You should carefully lift your arm and flick a bit with your fingers. Set signal. Then say: "Thank you! This is unfortunately not a storytelling course. Our topic is ...? There are permanent speakers who do not itch. They keep talking. Then you should do that again with the signal. Please, who can do that?
Polite stopping: Sometimes it really is time to stop talking. Because otherwise valuable time is gone, in a seminar that costs money. There is the polite form. Raise your hand, address the permanent speaker by name, and: "It's okay if I summarize your statement. So you mean that ...?
Alarm clock on the table! You can also set an alarm clock right at the beginning of a round of talks:? Please do not tell any novels. For every minute over 3 minutes speaking time there is a penalty point. Anyone who does not have a penalty point will receive a gift !? That works wonders. The gift can only be a delicious creamy sweet, but the joy is great.
In personal conversation is the persistent talk quite uncomfortable. A conversation is an exchange. I listen and think. Then I tell and the other listens with interest. That's great. But often I just say one cue - immediately the other talks about his experiences. I feel ignored. Since I have tried a tip. As soon as the other person begins to tell his novel, I say aloud? Apropos? The other one looks tall, says? and during this intermission, I say, "Could it be that you have no interest in my experiences ?? First off is a big one, no, of course not !? I answer: "That's nice? and then I tell my story to an end.
Cell-time Speaker: Maybe it's like this: permanent speakers have problems. You have to talk. If I am sitting on the train and someone behind me is talking on the mobile phone, from Cologne to Nuremberg without a dot and a comma, then I believe that there is no interlocutor sitting at the end of the line. They talk in the void. Simply, because that's super cool. And all of you all are allowed to listen!
