Why is public speaking made such a great deal?

[@Anja1111]

@@boulevarda.aladetoyinbo4773 For many people that are in personal development like coaching/mentoring this is a big deal, because it's a way to reach much more people all at once. Yet many of us have a hard time because of stage fear, or don't know strategies, etc. Public speaking in a way you really communicate your message in a clear and entertaining way is an art. When you are listening to someone performing a speaking engagement you don't want to listen to someone that is nervous, boring, or not articulating things... Or not bounding with you as part of the listeners :) You probably know those "boring speakers", in fact they are not boring, there message isn't boring, but they haven't learned the art of public speaking. It's a profession.

I got asked to do a 4-hour seminar/workshop at my former college at the start of the year. I reluctantly said yes. In the weeks and days leading up to it I constantly had butterflies in my stomach. Two days before it I even contemplated cancelling. But I stuck it out and did it. Actually really enjoyed it. And afterwards had a feeling like I just won the lottery. Getting out of your comfort zone and challenging yourself is hugely rewarding. Embrace the fear!

[@Kelvincars_gh]

Thanks for your speech, it’s really great.

[@raunakbhujel2880]

An amazing talk. So, the first thing is to never tell the audience that you are nervous, gaze slowly not stare, breathe deeply because it is a sign that you are safe, and just look at his body language. Truly, a master speaker.

[@allandunn1431]

Incredible: talked for an hour and twenty without notes or PowerPoint slides. Effortless public speaking - a masterclass. If he had been talking for that long in a language I don't even understand, I could still have learned a lot about technique - and I talk to people for a living. Bravo!

[@namiirojose6824]

​@@EricEdmeadesHere I was thinking that the dressing was to prove to us that looks don't matter much😊

[@gentiluomodotdev]

I have decided to write down a kind of "OVERVIEW" of BOTH the first and second part. With overview I do not mean timestaps, rather I mean things he said (note however, that I write them down in the same order as he is telling them in his talk). All the things I am going to write are from him, some sentences word by word, some sentences changed a bit. I will divide my writing in Part 1 and Part 2, but I will not provide any timestaps. Further note, that Eric uses stories/examples to make things more clear/visual, which I do not provide in this overview. That said, I hope this will be helpful for some people. Edit: If anyone wants me to add something to the "list", please let me know :). Or just share your thoughts in the comments. If I find something particularly valuable, I will add it myself here (so that people do not have to read all the comments). ############################### PART 1 ############################### - stories make it possible for us to survive; our DNA loves stories; - speaking is one of the most powerful forces there is in our society; - being a speaker, being comfortable sharing your ideas, being influential in the way you communicate can triple or more your income; - speaking obliterates all other advantages (e. g. height, gender); it is the most powerful thing you can do for your professional life; - we were NOT born to be afraid of public speaking/communicating; - the minute you start producing cortisol and adrenaline, you step back in time in your brain; you go to the more primitive parts of your brain; the more scared you are, the more primitive you go; we become more pessimistic and we lose touch with our proper brain; - children are the toughest audience ever; - Fear of missing out (FOMO) can absolutely get in your way of creating an incredible financial future; - Today, if you want to influence people, you have to start to think about them, talk to them; - Always have really clear, strategic objectives before communication (e. g. have fun); - Never let the audience notice that you are nervous (otherwise you will not believe people; their prais & warm words are platitudes & lies); - never go overtime; - your breathing has everything to do with how safe you feel; - when we are only operating on instinct everything will look scarier than it really is, because it is safer that way; - when you breathe really full, you communicate to your DNA that your environment is safe; - Excitement is nervousness about something cool and nervousness is just excitement about something scary; _______________________________________________ - Things to make you feel better going on stage: *breathing deeply *using your eyes in a soft, gazing way *we see the presentation coming out beautifully *we never let the audience see us nervous *be predictable in that first bit of your talk; know exactly what you're going to say so that you can create a predictive response from the audience in the first 30 seconds _______________________________________________ ############################### PART 2 ############################### - The stage effect is the unfair advantage that you create for yourself by standing in front of an audience; - The quality of your presentation plus the size of the audience creates the level of attraction you create as a speaker (e. g. views on KZbin); - nothing will create a more lasting impression than face-to-face contact, but it is not very practical; - face-to-face contact, however, is even more powerful face-to-faces; - one of the greatest tools of the introvert is learning how to be great at storytelling and standing on stage because then you don't have to go meet people; the come and meet you; _______________________________________________ - Broad spectrum appeal: deliver with broad spectrum, i. e. in a way where the audience likes what is going on even if the topic is not a direct match for them *USE STORIES (stories are the operating system of the human mind) **stories can trigger emotion; no emotion -> no memory; emotion is the glue that causes memories to stick; **remember to deliver information in story format (you don't need to know a lot of stories); **one of the important type of stories to tell are metaphorical or allegorical, where you tell a story that the audience wants to hear but that's teaching them something else; **stories are broad spectrum automatically; *USE A RANGE OF VOCAL TECHNIQUES **deliver with passion; be who you are; put heart and soul into your talk; **you should know you story so well that you can tell them with imperfections; _______________________________________________ - Communication frequencies: *VISUAL: like to talk in picture; usually quickly and loudly; *AUDITORY: more steady tone; talk with a predictable cadence; in a way that is quite pleasant to listen to for a short period of time; use words like "listen to me", "I'd like to share"; *KINESTHETIC: talk really quietly; use long pauses; give you time to process the things they've said; use words like "feeling", "warmth" and "connection"; - The spread of those type of communication frequencies within the audience is more thermostatic than discrete (i. e. 30% of that type, 40% of that, etc.); - you need to speak to the audience in the language they want to hear; _______________________________________________ - Charisma Pattern: *Start with Kinesthetic people; building rapport with them; *as you start to warm up the auditory people start to notice (the kinesthetic people still think it is a good talk eventhough it's come up; it's called pacing and leading (a term from NLP)); *finally you build up to crescendo; visual people start to notice (the kinesthetic people still like your talk because you took them there); _______________________________________________ - when stories are being told and delivered well, you create Time Warp, you create illusion; _______________________________________________ -Remember: *BREATHE PROPERLY; push your stomach out as you breathe not your chest; do two or three of those and you will feel better; *USE YOUR EYES softly and gaze out at the world; you will create a feeling of being incredibly relaxed; *NERVOUSNESS AND EXCITEMENT are effectively the same thing; if you can learn to create better pictures in your head you will transition your nervousness into excitement; *START YOUR TALK with a really predictable beginning; _______________________________________________ - you can only dream and fantasize from the position you're in right now;

[@keepingitreel...8037]

I'm in my 60s now. But, back as a teen in High School, on the very first day of school, our History teacher, gave us an outline for the year with his expectations. One of the things I still remember over 40 years later, is when he said, each of you will pick a person of historical interest and do a minimum 5 page report on that person, and pass it in. (I was good, so far.) Then he added, after you pass it in, you will stand in front of the class and be the teacher on your subject. You will speak for 15 minutes, then answer questions from your fellow classmates. (Not so good now.) And then he added, and anyone who does not complete this assignment, will fail the class. I literally wasted the entire year in that classroom, knowing from day one, there's not a chance in hell I'm doing that! And I failed History. I remember my cousin did his on John F Kennedy and it was actually pretty good. And there was a point about the Bay of Pigs of which my History teacher argued with him about, and as it turned out, my cousin was correct! Lol Looking back, I wish I had been able to have done it back then, but I couldn't, and wouldn't. That's why I watched this presentation. I guess I'm still curious of how to do it. . . I have coached 3 different youth sports and had zero fear of speaking in front of people about that. So perhaps, at least one thing that helps, is Confidence in knowing your topic. . .

Yes this is my third comment. I am speaking. Well I’m at least typing my thoughts. When I would speak in church on the platform before KZbin came into my life, I would get the distinct feeling that this group of people thought of me as a waste of time. So it was difficult to grow in that environment. At 26 minutes into your video you said the most profound statement. I’m telling you all I do is talk. But for me it was cholerics in my life that didn’t want to converse. That just wanted me to work and not slow them down from working. My favorite book title is “The Conversation is the Relationship “. The book itself was good too! I love people who are really sharing from their hearts.

[@hahanicebroskie]

Starts with something relatable. Something that starts with vulnerability. A good story. Which gets your attention. Starting a talk is being prepared before walking on stage, and he just pumped up the audience by using an untrained audience to relate to this.

I love your presentation, and I thank you for your advice and your clear way of communicating it. I study energy work and recently created my youtube channel.

I had a presentation last week in front of my class I was so nervous I knew I really prepared for this I was gonna do a great job I also prepared some jokes too When it was my turn I was so nervous I felt like I would faint I wanted to vomit my voice trembled alot I felt like I was gonna cry I can't control my breathing I felt like I'm screwed I can't make it., deep down I was thinking like NO this is not how I want it to be delieved I want this to be the best presentation I've ever had omg I was able to calmed down immersed in my talk I don't even see the audience anymore I didn't know how that happened but I felt some damn confidence and made the best out of my last min I felt really proud of myself even though the beginning wasn't very promising but I knw the last min was good. When I finished I kept asking myself why am I feeling nervous in front of my classmates😂

Gift of relationship with food and gift of communication. Incredible way of putting across in a crystal clear way. The efforts I personally put to empower my kids for a notch better health n success are for the same reasons.

I love to speak publicly and I am trying to create to get into this field professionally but I dont know how :(

[@Jrodgersmin]

Yes I’m afraid of public speaking, I’m writing a self help book and i also read tarot cards and some how have to convince people I’m not crazy and my ideas have value. I know they have value I know my ideation is sound but public speaking is kicking my ass

[@downwithosama1]

Have you spoke publicly yet?

[@swaguilar_]

I didn't know who Eric was before watching this but, I really enjoyed his talk. I will watch pt. 2 but hopefully this opens more doors for me. In general I'm pretty quiet but, with friends I'm more open to people. I wish I could be like that with everyone. This talk is helping me with my public speaking especially at church. Thanks.

[@victoriaoluwafemi1516]

I don’t regret watching it.I really enjoyed and grateful for the message

[@lebawityoseph4982]

Wow... I had jogging clothes and seriously planned to run! I literally watched the whole video (1 hour 18 minutes and 56 seconds!!! ) I REALLY MEAN IT!!! Awesome speech and great content!

[@LoveKayee]

yoo keyss to my anxiety right now. from bedroom cave hobbit to needed to speak more in public. My anxiety kicks in heavily and we are still 2 weeks away from the event. This is truly a blessing💛

[@jipangetz8672]

I'm just so happy he mentioned 'Mount Kilimanjaro', my country's mountain😁. Like here,if you love Mount Kilimanjaro.😊

[@justinamusyoka4986]

....And "pole pole", slowly ,caught me ears.I Can see Mt Kilimanjaro from my part in Kenya.salaam.

[@BulamuHomeDoctors]

Very wonderful talk... I'm encouraged to speak in public 😅

[@PaulStephenson003]

Great video. "Never Split The Difference" by Chris Voss also talks about the power of no (~40min mark). It's very powerful. It's interesting how ubiquitous many of these ideas are in certain circles, but they are Only ubiquitous under the surface. How do you go below the surface - continuous learning and experimentation - like watching videos like this, reading books these enlightened souls wrote, and following their interests so you can learn how they learned.

[@AntonyReed]

BAM! Love it! This is exactly what I do to help others through hypnosis and NLP. Amazing talk, by Eric. Thank you!

[@Ms.AmalHaidar]

58 minutes in, I got some valuable information about the topic and a huge dose of how great and special you are. I just can't take more of this self-glorification. Have to opt out!

[@brandyharding7692]

Yeah.. you kind of missed the entire point of telling folks about all of that....

[@rejoicepoyyail6999]

Wow awesome excellent Eric

[@iamthestormthatisapproaching69]

He taught the students how to public speak while public speaking

[@ramanansui629]

He didn't teach anything.

[@patoises]

great public speaker, like a stand-up, but taught nothing

[@realsaratu]

So much for a topic. I loved that points are embedded subtly and I love the real flow of your presentation. Thank you for this very interesting and informative video.

[@michaelgee683]

I totally agree

[@sahadevankm2893]

Very nice video speech Sir, Congratulation

[@hugegains-makegreatsales5736]

That's so amazing. But, to beat the fear of public speaking is actually doing it.
