Making Merry Memorable Numbers

I was merrily wiggly-waving my fingers and thumb here.

Mid-video call celebrating the achievement of a certain number.

It reminded me how few people use gestures like this to better engage their fellow participants.

A while back, I could run a pair of 45-minuters covering a variety of plentiful techniques like this.

Attendees duly invigorated. Released into the bountiful zone of quality, authentic, humanising movements.

Put simply, people remember.

The rivers of categories ripe for such illumination teem richly.

Not solely the domain of (ahem) digits, finger alphabets or emoji style hand comms.

Nor do you need to stray into iffy jazz-hands territory. In the mode of a comedy mime troupe. Like a children's party entertainer.

Less is most definitely more.

For that key meaning, make a movement for it. And make it stick.

Your competition will be left ever farther in your wake.

A final note too on the (someone else's) Teams call screenshot above. If you use Teams for videoing you are not serious about videoing. There.
