An area in which I would like to improve. (dream)

DREAM

I am interpreting the results of computer programs for a more general audience. This is my job. And I start off being extremely diplomatic. I massage my answers into a yes or no format, which is the level of simplicity my audience wants, and I give programmers the benefit of the doubt with regard to their intentions for the program. 

But something within me snaps, and I become determined to give the full-bodied, complex, nuanced answer, even if my audience won't follow as easily. I voice my doubts about the programmers' intentions for the programs too.


INTERPRETATION

I think I had this dream because the job I want to work towards requires communicating very technical information clearly and concisely to a general audience. That is something I need to improve at if I want to be good at this career. 

What I've tended to do with technical information in the past is to say way too much that doesn't get to the point of why the person I'm talking to needs the information. I think I do this when I get nervous, or  haven't practiced enough, and also when I don't understand my topic well enough. 

I'm thankful for this dream for trying to put me on the right track! Maybe I can ask ChatGPT to help me rehearse.
