How to articulate your thoughts effectively (like Steve Jobs)

[@ProfessorTanyaSpeaks]

As a college communications instructor, I thought this video was excellent. I appreciated the distinction you made about logos: what do I want people to know in order to accomplish ___.? We often forget about our END goal. Love it!!! This video was gold!! 👏🏼

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

Thanks for the stamp of approval Tanya! I completely agree, it's so easy to get caught in the moment and forget about where we want to go!

[@ProfessorTanyaSpeaks]

Vicky BEEAMP - Find Your Point of View I’m wondering if you missed your calling as a teacher or are you?

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

@@ProfessorTanyaSpeaks Awww this is such a beautiful compliment, thank you so much Tanya!!!

[@bobbyv3]

This sounds more like it’s geared towards selling something. If I’m trying to articulate my own thoughts, why would I care how the audience feels? When I start worrying about that, then they’re no longer my thoughts as I’m curating my words based on what I think you’ll want to hear.

[@rtc3363]

@@bobbyv3 you’re right, communicating an idea is akin to “selling” it to someone else in order for them to understand what you’re talking about. How to say it is equally if not more important than what to say.

[@vaishnavim2451]

1. What do I want people to do? (Once they've heard our idea) 2. What do I want people to know about me? (ethos-ethical appeal) 3. What do I want people to know about the topic?(Logos - logical appeal) 4. What do I want people to feel?(Pathos- emotional appeal)

[@hannahinman4271]

I got chills from the Steve Jobs speech. Such an excellent example of effective communication. The whole speech is excellent for anyone who hasn't seen it yet! :)

[@MonzonMedia]

This has always been a challenge for me, I could never say what was in my head exactly as I wanted to, I learned about writing your thoughts in order to articulate them better, however I'm always working on getting to the point where it's natural to me. Great tips that I can apply!

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

I had the same challenge! The days when I left so many people confused haha let me know if the 4 questions helped!

[@StephenMBauer]

From much experience, I can say that the act of writing down my thoughts/ideas leads to clarifying my thoughts. The more effort I put into writing them, the clearer my thoughts become.

[@alieudev]

This is a gold mine. I always thought that communicating is something we do and don't have (innate ability). After watching this video, I now realize it's a skill. And with any skill, it can be learned and improved. Thank you for giving me confidence in myself.

[@auag19]

Ever since I was graduating from my BA I've become more insecure about my speaking abilities, and even feel like I've become more stupid, and have lost a lot of my vocabulary. Now I'm about to graduate with an MA and my insecurity is at an all time high. This, while dreaming of starting my own podcast.... The irony.... I love thinking, talking, and listening to people talk about ideas. The only place in which I feel confident is in my own journal/diary, but I'm so eager to get out of that comfort zone! This video helped to soothe my anxieties quite a lot, thank you! New sub ^^

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

I'm so glad this video made you feel more at ease! I can totally relate to the irony of the more we study the more we feel more insecure. I love that you want to start your own podcast. If KZbin's taught me anything it's get started and strangers are surprisingly warm and supportive! Did you decide on the topic yet? Would love to check it out and send you some love when it's up!!

[@cassandraadeyemi]

i'm glued to this channel. Thank you Vicky for all the gems posted on your channel

[@NataliaTokar]

couldn't agree more. I write not be read, but to understand. When I have an idea (even a very bad one), I start writing about it, and it unfolds into something bigger. It's a wonderful tool that helps me understand my own thoughts, convictions, and emotions.

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

Writing not to be read as the power of writing is underrated!

[@kevinwilliams2254]

Greatly appreciated!

[@cinng2806]

Thought to just state the 4 questions here: Ethos (trust) - what do I what people to do (end goal), what do I want people to know about me Logos (logic) - what do i want people to know about the topic Pathos (emotion) - what do I want people to feel This is definitely something I’ve been struggling with for years and I always thought there’s something wrong with me 😅 from your video, I know learn that it’s about applying the right tool (framework) and to work on it until it’s like my second nature! I’m new (immediately subscribed!) to your channel and I really hope to see improvement in structuring my thoughts and speech. Can’t wait for that to happen.

It’s very interesting when you listen to the clap response from the audience while he’s revealing the iPhone and functions. When he revealed the mobile phone they were clapping very loudly and cheering. When he mentioned the internet the claps were a little more quiet. I think this is possibly because we didn’t have as much use for the internet back then as we do today. So we didn’t realize how much use we were really gunna get out of the internet. There weren’t as many websites and platforms that we have today, so maybe they weren’t too interested in the internet at the time because they had no idea how useful it would become.

[@fd4511]

A product trust that is built without communicating a clear benefit to society at large will not last long. A call to prestige is seasonal, like fashion. That deeper call to that which is our true aspiration, and which brings us all together, is what sets the iconic products apart from the quickly forgotten copycats. Understanding the basics of what motivates people in a particular cultural setting is essential for effective articulation of thoughts. It's impossible to copy Steve Jobs without paying PR companies and actors that will cheer and clap on clue during a major product launch.

For your Benefit: My notes 0) Write it down. Freeup mental bandwidth. U need a structure. 1) What do we want ppl to do, once they hear our idea? (Know how it impacts others, & what u want others to do?) 2) What do I want my audience to know about me? (The goal I want ppl to do is an action, What can they k abt me, in order to be more open & receptive to this idea?) (Eg. Ppl are interested in the "revolutionary", not we spent 50yrs in th...) 3) What do I WANT ppl to know? (logos) (Not what do I know, & regurgitate everyth u know, & it's a dribble of info that doesn't connect tgt) 4) What do I WANT ppl to feel? (pathos) (They might uds the facts & figures, but dk how to feel abt it, bcos they haven't made the connection between these facts, & what does that mean to me. Does this help me survive & thrive?)
