Have you ever asked someone a really simple question, and that person gave you a way-too complex answer? What this world needs is more pitches. Sometimes, we haven’t thought about a particular question, so we ramble until we come up with some semblance of an answer. Other times, though, it\u2019s good to give concise, straightforward answers. A professor for one of my classes assigned a paper that gave a very creative, open-ended approach to each student. He was emphatic about this paper being one page. I wrote my paper, and I had about 300 words too many. It was incredible how much I could cut out. I rambled for those full 300 words. Heck, this blog post may be a bit like a ramble, but there’s something to be said for being concise. A pitch helps a person think about the most essential points of an topic. It’s helpful and interesting to understand the complexities and intricacies of something, but it’s important to consolidate and synthesize that information. Of course, nobody is perfectly concise. Again, this blog post definitely isn’t. But, sometimes, we can be WAY too good at being verbose. Let’s strive to understand things with real depth, but then be able to turn around and communicate them to others in elegant and impactful ways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
