Many people break the cardinal rule of "without break" when speaking, eating, or drinking. While there are exceptions to every rule, avoiding these common mistakes will help you speak faster, eat better, and drink more responsibly.

Breaking "without break" can have a few different results. The most common is that you will speak too fast and not be able to keep up with the conversation. This can make it difficult to understand the speaker and lose focus on the conversation. Another common result is eating too fast and not taking the time to savor your food. This can cause you to overeat and gain weight.
