My public speaking career began in
1990 with my valedictory speech, in which I badgered the audience about why they should be glad to pay higher taxes for education.
Ugh.
The rest of my career has been better than that.
Since then I've spoken to packed university lecture halls and auditoriums all over the world, and to audiences of thousands. I've picked up a little something since then.
Here's my advice for what not to do.
No matter how nervous you may be, never tell the audience, "I'm sorry; I'm just nervous."
Never, ever tell them that.
The audience wants you to be in command. It's awkward for them when they realize you're not. You don't want their attitude toward you to be one of pity. Or even contempt.
I have much, much more public speaking advice like this in a special video I recorded as a bonus.
Another bonus I have for you: I give you a look under the hood of my entire business: everything I do, and how I do it. That's bound to switch on some lightbulbs for you.
These bonuses, containing my secrets, are being taken down tomorrow.
Grab before it's too late:
