Don’t tell everything you know
We want to offer more context. We want to dive into complexity and nuance. Resist.
Make your point or answer the question simply, and if the other person longs for more information, s/he will jump in with a follow-up question based on the answer you provided.
Pro Tip: 90% of all questions are easily answered with no more than 4-6 sentences.
