If there's one thing that makes me squirm, it's an awkward public speaker.
Maybe the person is clicking his pen the whole time, or has a verbal tick (like saying, "OK?" at the end of each sentence).
Maybe the person is visibly nervous.
Maybe the person is arranging his papers and -- as if trying to kill his rapport with the audience -- apologizes to his listeners.
There are so many ways you can wind up looking like a boob.
But don't worry.
I have a 25-year career of public speaking under my belt, and plenty of folks say I'm pretty good at it.
I sat down earlier this year and recorded my tips on public speaking. For the most part I break with the conventional wisdom -- "always start with a joke" is a stupid rule, for example, and courses that urge you to gesture this way or that should be shunned and ridiculed.
I offered it as a bonus a couple of times this year, but it was otherwise unavailable.
Well, I'm offering this along with half a dozen more of the juiciest bonuses I created in 2019 in a single blowout special as the year draws to an end and I begin to retire these bonuses.
Just one of them is my 45-minute mini-course on public speaking.
The others are just as good.
