The Overused !

Exclamation Point I was going over value statement replies for one of my clients and noticed something very interesting. The majority of people (including my client) end many of their sentences with an exclamation point.

Now ! is fine if used in moderation. BUT it seems that moderation is thrown out the window in many cases.

Here's an example. My child loves your classes! Thanks !! Or the every popular, I can't tell you how happy we are now that we signed up!!!

I know we're all motivated and excited about life and good results, but please, limit your use of ! to one sentence per message. After all, how excited can everyone really be?

Thanks for sharing your ideas on the use of ! too. I appreciate it!
