public speaking

1. THE POWER OF PUBLIC SPEAKING

2. “Proper Planning and Preparation Prevents Poor Performance.”

3. “A speaker should approach his preparation not by what he wants to say, but by what he wants to learn.”

4. “If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time.”

5. “It's much easier to be convincing if you care about your topic. Figure out what's important to you about your message and speak from the heart.”

6. “No audience ever complained about a presentation or speech being too short.”

7. “In presentations or speeches less really is more.”

8. “Great losses are great lessons.”

9. “One of the best ways to persuade others is with your ears, by listening to them.”

10. “Open your ears before you open your mouth; it may surprise your eyes!”

11. “The finest art of communication is not learning how to express your thoughts. It is learning how to draw out the thoughts of another.”

12. “If you're not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable – practice.”

13. “90% of how well the talk will go is determined before the speaker steps on the platform.”
