Let’s face it divorce sucks. Anybody who has been through it knows and those who haven’t you are:1) smarter and made better choices than I did. Kudos to YOU! Or, 2) have yet to experience it: 1) I hope you don’t and 2) I hope it’s not as messy as mine was. So, there’s this phase where you are trying to move on.

I am going to tell you that I am going to tell you a story.

I just told you my short version of how to give a speech. Now I studied Speech in high school extensively and while some of you may think that speech refers to speaking and how to converse with others – what I studied was much more in depth.

Let’s recap. I told you what I’m going to tell you, then I’m going to tell you and then I’m going to tell you what I told you.

While that sounds funny it’s the basic truth of it all. The more you repeat a point, the more likely people are to remember.
