Does Anyone Find The Following Statement True??
"If You Want To Catch Someone's Attention -> whisper"

I don't ... Can you imagine whispering... fire or
help ... expecting to have a rush of people clamoring
to your aid?? LOL!!! Umm, I don't think so!

I used to work with people with Alzheimers. It was a common behaviour management trick to calm someone who was agitated or upset. Using a loud tone makes agitated, confused people feel defensive and act out but whispering feels non-threatening and they usually automatically focused and calmed down, and quite oftem whispered back.
I've tried it on my 5 year old and it has worked a few times, tskes the cranky down a few notches wine

I can see how it would work in some situations, especially when people would normally expect you to speak up.

But by the same token, any contrary behavior would work when the opposite was expected.

That phrase is deceptively simplistic. Sometimes, its a whisper that can have more power than any amount of shouting. Most business usually start with a whisper behind closed doors..
