FEWER WORDS, POWERFUL MESSAGE
|| This summary written on 7th November 2023
I really don’t know how long a speaker is going to be talking to me for. I’ve come to understand that they know how long my publications are and how long their message should be. I also know that they take into account my personal energy levels, or in other words, how long I can sustain the power for the transcription.
The sessions I transcribe when at Lanzarote are free of any time restrictions on my part. At home I tend to have other things to do and have limited time to devote to the writing.
The following session is surprisingly short, considering I had no time pressures. That said, the words are so well composed. This speaker is someone that knows what they’re talking about. Someone that is used to delivering words, and understands that less is often more.
Cards on the table - some of the scientific facts that the speaker today quotes, I already knew. But although that may be so, there are several other quotes that I weren’t aware of, especially the powerful opening statement. What a way to start a talk with us.
Additional Thoughts
Honesty in our work is always important. Although I admitted above that I was aware of some of these facts, I’m able to appreciate how the speaker has used them from my memory bank and added more details to support them. This is an important aspect of the work that I’ve only recently realised happens.
