We are more influenced not just by what a person said but by how it is been said. We are more inclined whwn a persons voice is warm, kind and friendly than a voice cold or  harsh.

In developing a good and desirable voice quality is not altogether  a matter of voice mechanics. From the tone to voice, you can know the difference between arrogant, intolerant and harsh voice  from the humble, patient and loving voice even we do not understand the language.

Illness that damaged one's larynx or inherited structural defect can cause undersirable voice quality. Therefore, learning to use speech organs properly can result in improvement.

Your objective should not be to develop a voice that imitates another person. Rather it is important to appreciate that voice characteristics vary in individuals. 

What can help you cultivate the potential of your own voice? Consider the following

PROPER CONTROL OF BODY AIR SUPPLY

An adequate suppy of air is needed along with breath control. Lack of it, your voice may sound weak and your delivery may be choppy.
 Due to shoulder bones, we assumed that the largest part of the lungs is at the top of the chest which is not so. Instead, the lungs are widest just above the diaphragm. The diahragm  separates the chest from the abdominal cavity.

When you breath and fill only the top portion of your lungs,  you will soon be out of breath making your voice lack power and you tire easily. You need to sit or stand straight and hold your shoulders back in order to breath properly.
 When you inhale, fill the lower part of the lungs. At the same time the diaphragm will move down, displacing the stomach and intestines and you feel the pressure of your belt on your abdomen.
