According to my Gallup poll, many people were also annoyed by someone who spoke too slowly. You may do this while you are thinking, thus ignoring the person you are speaking to. If you have a boring, monotonous voice, you might tend to exaggerate your vowels. In order to stop this, be mindful each time you speak. As you sip in air before you begin to speak, think of spending only one second on each vowel. This way, you speed up and talk at a rate at which people find it pleasurable to listen to you.
It is also important, especially if you are in a situation where you are expected to do some public speaking, to avoid saying the following words: “like,” “um,” and “uh.” So be mindful of your filler words. Silence is better than making someone listen to these motor-like sounds. Flowing your sounds together and coordinating your breathing with your talking (as mentioned earlier) can help.
Spending one second on each vowel, as well as consciously stopping yourself whenever you want to “um” and “uh,” can also help you to modify this negative behavior. Hearing silence is better than hearing your annoying sounds.
