Stop using these words in your communication

In environments where your confidence and competency are being constantly evaluated, every word you say matters.

Avoid these words.

“Just” - for example, I 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 want to point out.
Adding a “just” undermines others’ impression of your confidence.

“I am sorry” - for example, 𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆, I have a question.
Adding a “I am sorry” shows that you don’t think you should ask the question.

“Correct me if I’m wrong”
They will, you don’t need to tell them.
You are giving them hint that you are wrong.

All of these phrases and words diminish your “executive presence” as people often refer to.
