Communication & Contracts
📋 What it is
Clear communication — and reading before you sign — prevents misunderstandings in agreements big and small.
🗣️ Coach says
Whether it’s a group project or a phone plan, two skills protect you: say clearly what you mean, and READ before you agree. A “contract” is just a promise written down — never sign or click “agree” to something you haven’t read.
🧠 Memory hook
Say it clearly. READ before you agree. A contract is a written promise.

A penny for your thoughts?
In this economy, I'll need at least a quarter.
😲 Whoa!
Those “I agree to the terms” boxes are real contracts — most people click without reading, which companies count on.
✅ Quick check: Why is it risky to click “I agree” or sign something without reading it?
Say your answer out loud first — then reveal.
Because you’re making a binding promise — you could be agreeing to fees, rules or losing rights you didn’t know about.
Read-before-you-agree is a life-long protective habit.

Find one “agreement” in your life (a rule, a sign-up) and name one thing worth reading carefully.
