Keeping things short and simple is not as easy at sounds. To be an effective communicator, one needs to understand how important it is to be clear and direct with the messaging. Only then can you get immediate and clear understanding (and ultimately, action) from your audience.

Keeping things short and concise is not easy. It requires deep thought and deep understanding of what you’re trying to achieve.
