"Speaking" Articles
 

  • Are Writing Exercises Effective? - It was reported that the great American author Sinclair Lewis was once asked to give a lecture on writing to a group of college students: "Looking out at this gathering," he said to the assembled students, "makes me want to know how many of you really and truly wish to become writers?" Every hand in the room went up.
  • The Difference Between Speech And Talk - Public speaking can best be described as knowing the difference between speech and talk. The first will be respected and revered, the second scorned and ridiculed. The man who can speak is a leader, the man who can talk a fool. A speech will be recalled and recited for a lifetime, talk will be forgotten five minutes after it is finished. When acquiring skills in public speaking it is vitally important to distinguish between speech and talk. An infant can talk, presenting slow, stuttering ideas that require the skilled listener to comprehend.
  • How to Improve Your Writing Skill and Be A Great Writer - Want to know how to improve your writing skill? It would ultimately depend on your motivation. There can be many reasons why you would want to learn how to improve your writing skill. Others do it for the love and others may do it for the money. The important thing here is that you should have the proper motivation to write and to write well in order to even gain some ground on what you set out to do. Having the wrong motivation as you set out on learning how to improve your writing skill would get you nowhere. Only the right motivation will send you on the right path.
  • Millionaire Mindset: How to Develop the Powerful Mindset of Millionaires - The millionaire mindset is what sets successful people apart. Putting the millionaire mindset to use can ensure that you are applying the tools that most successful people use in order to reach their dreams of becoming millionaires. The thought process of millionaires is different from those who never even thought about making it rich in their lifetime. It is something that you should be able to follow if you wish to create wealth for yourself in the future. Here are some thinking traits of millionaires that might help you out. One of the characteristics of most millionaires and successful people in the world is that they think that they are responsible for their fate.
  • Why Visual Aids Need to Be Less Visual - I was recently invited to a presentation by an accomplished speaker. Needless to say, his speech was well structured, his manner relaxed and confident, his eye contact and body language excellent, etc. He normally spoke without slides, but this time he felt they would reinforce and illuminate his message. They didn’t. In fact, they were more of a hindrance than a help. This is not an isolated case; it is typical. Over nearly 40 years as a communication consultant, I have seen countless essentially good speakers give a very good oral presentation, only to undermine it with slides that detract rather than add. Why does this happen? Too often speakers fail to recognize that slides are an integral part of the presentation, not an add-on.
  • How to Use Presentation Slides to Best Effect - How often have you attended a presentation where great attention apparently went into designing the slides - and apparently none into how they were used? Or the speaker played with the slides as if to entertain rather than edify?
  • Start Your Own 6-Figure Self-Publishing Empire - Many people want to write a book, or write several books or become a full-time author. And with this digital age of printing there's never been a better time or an easier way to become a self-published author.
  • Corporate Storytelling: Finding Story Resources - Looking for a tale to kick off a speech, enliven a meeting, or connect with a sales prospect? You can find stories in a variety of locations. Which type of story you pick depends on your personal style and what objective you're trying to achieve. Here are the major types of stories and some sources for each: 1. Myths and folktales These are usually better suited for a formal speech, where they can be used to establish a metaphor that you refer to repeatedly. Be sure you pick a tale that works for your telling style - for example, if you're uncomfortable doing character voices, don't pick a story that relies on that.
  • The Gospel of Writing According to Marilyn: Chapters 3 - Chapter 3: Expressing What's In Our Hearts and Minds is a Direct Way to Access Your God, No Matter What Name You Use to Describe Him/Her Writing is a deceptively difficult art. It takes time, perseverance, patience, desire, and did I say, perseverance. Only write if you truly want to. As a writer I know put it, there are easier ways to be miserable. However, the rewards are great. Writing brings a feeling of power and freedom. And if you do it regularly and with consistency, you will get better. Through writing, we access the inner landscape of our soul. Writing is about learning to pay attention, and then to communicate what you see in the environment around you and how you perceive what you observe. As a writer, it's your task to see people and things as they really are.
  • Multiple Streams of Writing Income Part 4: Vision Description and Leveraging Your Writing - The Inspiration Gap As you will see in the coming articles, your vision, with its purpose and mission, have to drive an enormous amount of energy from where you are to where you want to be.
  • Multiple Streams of Writing Income Part 5: Developing Strategies and Tasks - Developing Your Strategies and Tasks Now that you have a clear vision and you know what mediums you will use your writing in, you can start to develop strategies to drive your exposure and your revenue. Each person's vision is different. As a result, their strategies and tasks will vary as well. I am going to give you examples of my own strategy. You can embellish, change, remove, or adjust any of these suggestions to fit your vision.
  • Internet Authors Don't Need Prospectors - In Britain, we're having a big debate about the Health Service. People have finally realised that doctors aren't in the business of 'health' at all - they're in the illness business.
  • Multiple Streams of Writing Income Part 3: Values, Vision, Purpose, Mission Objectives - This is the third in a series of articles describing how to create a strategic plan to produce revenue and create higher visibility using your writing. For readers who want more information about creating and using Information Products (Knowledge Products). Your Values The first component is the core values on which you will be basing your vision. Values speak to your true essence and represent who you are and what you stand for.
  • Multiple Streams of Writing Income Part 2: Creating a Clear, Compelling Vision - The first question my clients frequently ask is, "Why do I need to define a vision for what I write? Why can't we just create a strategy?" There are two critical reasons for you to do the vision process. First, let me make this next reality perfectly clear: 10% of the success of a written piece is the actual writing; 90% is a result of your strategy for getting it to your audience, the marketplace. You have to start thinking about the total strategy if you want to have a successful book, series of articles, an e-book-whatever the final product is. That's why the dream, the vision, and the strategy are all extremely important.
  • The Gospel of Writing According to Marilyn: Chapters 1 - 2 - Chapter 1: Expect to Write, and Write, and Write Some More... The first advice I give my authors is the most simple, and quite often the most difficult. And that is, to expect to write. And I mean write. You can't just talk or read about it. The more you write, the freer you become. Nothing I say here or in my coaching, classes, and writing programs works unless you write. And write. And write.
  • Learn How To Write The Articles That Journalists Really Want... - Why do some people make it as writers while others find themselves consigned to obscurity? One of the easiest ways to achieve "expert status" is to appear in print - but first you must follow the five golden rules that guarantee to showcase you as a professional... The first golden rule is to understand that your story must be newsworthy and not merely a "puff piece". Copy that simply tries to promote an individual or organisation seldom makes it further than the dreaded journalist's spike! What constitutes a story? Anything that is unusual, noteworthy or simply interesting from a "human interest" perspective.
  • Internet Authors don't need needs - Okay, so you're an aspiring author or a wannabe writer and you're staring at the blank white page, wondering what to put on it. What would be the best thing to write about? What are publishers looking for? Hmm, tough question. I know, check out a few websites. Look at the home sites of well-known Traditional Publishers and see what they're putting out at the moment. That's easy. Here's a few romantic novels, some spy stories, and a quirky new translation from the Spanish.
  • Multiple Streams of Writing Income Part 1: Creating a Strategy for Your Writing - Creating a strategic plan for your writing is a creative process. As a result, the first thing I want you to do is keep in mind that nothing turns out as you expect it to in the creative process. Creating a strategic plan for your writing is just as important and uses the same creative energy as your actual writing. That's the fun and exciting part... if you let that process be free.
  • 7 Steps to Creating Info-Packed Teleseminars From Your Articles - Teleseminars, or workshops conducted over a teleconference line, are one of the easiest ways to grow a business and leverage your expertise online. However, when I speak to clients about using this marketing strategy, many believe that they don't have enough content to create a powerful 45-60 minute teleseminar. Do you share that same belief? If you've ever written an article, you've got enough information to create a teleseminar. I love to repurpose content, i.e., create something once and use it again and again for multiple purposes. I've found the articles I write weekly to be the easiest to repurpose.
