Using a rich vocabulary is absolutely beneficial in today’s competitive environment.  Not only does a rich vocabulary express your ideas more efficiently, it makes other around you take notice that you are intelligent and articulate.
If you are an Executive, Public Servant or a Customer Service Rep, an important part of your job is communication.  Many of us fall into a groove of using words that we have grown accustomed to using over the years.  Our language patterns usually depend on our job, social contacts or hobbies we participate in. 

Here are some strategies for boosting your vocabulary:
•Read more, whether it is magazine, journals, or books it is important to read.  Try reading books from a variety of different authors and subjects.  This will enhance your exposure to how language is used
•Try learning few beneficial words each day.  Write down a word that you normally use daily and try to replace it with something a little different or more articulate.
•Have conversations with people outside your circle.  Many times we talk the way others around us talk.
•For people who really want to boost their vocabulary, there are programs available that have developed easy and effective ways to learning words and language patterns.

So don’t stick to the same words, boost your vocabulary and you’ll probably be admired by others.
