When someone needs to tell me a long background story to drive at a point or to answer a question I just gave them, It’s either they’re selling me some bullshit or they don’t really understand the subject we’re talking about.
Understanding something well, allows you to be able to explain your thoughts about it clearly and with as few words as possible.
Skip the story and just answer the question!
