Yes, the downside of analogies is not everyone will understand them. Fair point, indeed! Whenever I use an analogy, my hope is many know the reference but that everyone gets the point, i.e. getting the point isn’t contingent on getting the analogy. I promise to keep the Star Wars references to a minimum, Rhonda. Thanks for the input!

But may I comment – that having an analogy of Yoda and Luke Skywalker only appeals to a certain niche… (Was that Star Wars…. or Star Trek?) so the message is somewhat lost. I think it’s really easy for communicators to get so caught up in our message that we forget the basics of communication, which is making it easily digestible and relatable to everyone that reads it 🙂 Love your blogs, keep ’em coming! 🙂
