Week 9 - My E-Prime Day

Well, I've been trying to live a day of speaking (and thinking) in English Prime.

It's been a very thoughtful and slower than usual day because I am forced to think through all my dialogues before I open my mouth to utter words.

As people who've known me for a while, I tend to operate at a pretty fast clip. However today I'm probably running at a 1/2 speed if not 1/4 at times. I'm surprised though that I'm not frustrated as I thought I might become.

The biggest effect is that I am forced to rethink my usual thought patterns and also become more aware of others and not just about what I think/want during conversations.

All in all, that's not a bad thing to be aware of in this life.
