2) The coffee tastes REALLY good!
Same words but by ‘exaggerating’ the “REALLY”, it makes everything sound so much more special and “alive”!
Try ‘exaggerating’ things a little in your conversations and they will sound SO MUCH BETTER!
Let’s talk more about this another time, as it makes such a big difference ...
