1
How do you speak clearly without overthinking every single word?
2
You know that moment when you're talking and halfway through your sentence?
3
You don't even know what point you're trying to make.
4
My name's Vin.
5
I've coached millions of people to improve their communication skills.
6
And the nine habits that I'm going to share with you in this video, it's going to help you become a clearer speaker.
7
I wish I learned these lessons much sooner.
8
And I'm going to break them down into three groups.
9
Delivery habits, vocal habits, and cognitive habits.
10
Habits, group one.
11
Do you wanna sound more confident?
12
Do you wanna sound more intelligent?
13
Do you wanna also sound more trustworthy?
14
Thank you.
15
If you do, the secret is...
16
Pause.
17
More
18
and this is easily one of the most overlooked tools in
19
communication That's why every single time I post the reel on
20
Instagram about the pause the damn thing goes viral every single time
21
Because people are always shocked at how this simple change can
22
create transformations our brains crave white space It's the same reason
23
why paragraphs exists in writing look at this paragraph on screen for example versus this paragraph and Which one looks more digestible?
24
Now that we've had a look at this visually with the paragraphs, I want to give you an example auditory wise.
25
Watch what happens if I just keep talking without pauses
26
and I create no spaces within what I'm saying and I just keep going.
27
Everything starts to just blend in together.
28
And do you notice how when there's no separation and there's no pauses, after a while everything I say just becomes mumbo jumbo and nothing really sticks?
29
Only when I do that example, in that exact way, you understand that without pauses, Your ideas blur together.
30
With them, though, They lent.
31
And here's the beautiful irony: people who pause more are perceived as being more confident, not less.
32
Now if you pair delivery habit 1 with this next delivery habit 2, you've got a powerful combo.
33
Slow down to highlight.
34
Often most people, they speak at one speed, one tempo, one rhythm.
35
And often the rhythm is fast.
36
This is one of the biggest problems growing up in the Vietnamese and Chinese culture.
37
My default speaking rate is extremely fast and old habits die hard.
38
So the moment I am nervous, just 10 % nervous, I am off to the races.
39
I thought that if I learned to speak really quickly, that means I can share lots of information per minute and that means that I'm Speaking like that.
40
reduces and dilutes impact instead.
41
When you speak really fast all the time, nothing stands out.
42
It all just blurs together.
43
It's like you're reading a book and then you're just highlighting the whole damn page.
44
Let me show you this example here.
45
You tell me which one hits harder.
46
I just want to remind you that your voice matters
47
and your communication skills is one of the most important skills that you'll develop in this life.
48
Your voice?
49
It matters.
50
communication, It's not just a skill.
51
It's a superpower.
52
Now you tell me, did you feel the difference?
53
Did you notice how when I combined slowing down my speech with the pause?
54
Oh, it's just beautiful.
55
And I'm not saying always speak like that.
56
I'm saying speak like that when you want the point to land when you want to be more impactful with your words.
57
Now as we move on to delivery habit three, most people ramble a lot.
58
And that's because they haven't learned how to use declarative statements.
59
And again here I want to remind you that these are all skills that you could learn.
60
You are not stuck with your communication skills.
61
These are just habits, and you can change habits.
62
And often when it comes to rambling, this happens when your mouth moves faster than your thoughts.
63
You're literally thinking while you're speaking.
64
That's rambling.
65
So when you learn how to make declarative statements, it helps you reduce the ramble.
66
have a full stop to them.
67
So I was thinking maybe we could, you know, potentially look at the other ideas that we had, you know, the ideas when like, we're going to like post on social media,
68
you know, like more often.
69
So yeah, I think it's, you know, it's kind of important to maybe consider the timing of the launch too,
70
because, you know, it could possibly affect our engagement level and how we make Oh,
71
I used to talk and it was a mess.
72
It was vague.
73
And the worst thing is, it makes you sound unsure, even when you are sure and you know your stuff.
74
Now I want you to contrast what you just heard with this next example where I'm going to use declarative statement.
75
Timing and consistency with our social media content will directly impact engagement.
76
Boom!
77
How much better was that?
78
I basically had the same message.
79
It just came across ten times more clear and coherent.
80
Great delivery isn't just about what you say.
81
It's how you control your delivery and energy when you say it.
82
The pause creates space for your ideas to land.
83
Slowing down acts like a verbal highlighter, signaling that something important is being communicated.
84
And declarative statements remove the guesswork.
85
It replaces hesitation with clarity and conviction.
86
Together, all these three delivery habits transforms your voice from being background noise into something that people want to hear.
87
Now let's get into group two: vocal habits.
88
When we're thinking about vocal habits, let me ask you a few things to kick things off.
89
Do you ever feel like your throat gets sore after you are speaking for an extended period of time?
90
Do you ever feel extremely fatigued after a presentation?
91
And do you ever lose your voice?
92
Or do you ever feel like your voice doesn't sound strong and your voice feels weak and you think to yourself, "What's happening with my voice?
93
Why is To relate to any of the things that I just said, you need to understand vocal habit number one.
94
Warm up your voice before you use it.
95
Your voice is a muscle system.
96
And just like any muscle, if you go straight from cold to full exertion, then you're going to strain it and it's going to underperform.
97
But here's the thing, vocal warm ups, they feel awkward and you sound weird while you're doing it.
98
And it takes a lot of effort.
99
it around you, you end up skipping it and you don't do it too.
100
Here's my go -to warm -up.
101
If there's only one thing I can do, this is what I'd do: lip trills.
102
The first thing is, for a full minute, on just one note, I'd do a lip trill.
103
So I'd do this: *Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Yeah, do that for a minute.
104
Now, if you struggle doing this, don't worry, your lips and your mouth, it's not broken.
105
All you got to do if you struggle to do this is take your two index fingers, push your cheeks in and then try.
106
Ha, it works.
107
You're not broken.
108
Some people can do it without, some people need a little bit of support.
109
It's okay.
110
You do that for a full minute.
111
And breathe, obviously, as often as you need to while you're doing this.
112
Then, second part of the exercise.
113
Now lip trill your favourite song.
114
So here, I'll do mine.
115
See if you can guess the song.
116
Wow Vin, that was a really long example.
117
Can you guess what song it is?
118
Only the best song to be written by the best boy band ever.
119
So then you lip trill your favorite song and then the last one, this is the last lip trill exercise for you to warm up.
120
"Do lip trills in short bursts." And do that for a minute.
121
So essentially what you're doing is you're going, *Burr
122
Burr Burr Burr Burr Burr *
123
*Burr
124
Burr Burr Burr Burr Burr *
125
*Burr
126
Burr Burr Burr Burr Burr *
127
*Burr
128
Burr Burr Burr Burr Burr *
129
*Burr
130
Burr Burr Burr Burr Burr *
131
*Burr
132
Burr Burr Burr Bur you have stronger projection, and most importantly, you have less vocal fatigue.
133
Let's move on to vocal habit number two.
134
Now, this is going to sound a little bit strange, but this habit is going to help protect your voice.
135
when you are not speaking, okay?
136
We have massive chunks of the day where we're just sitting by the computer and we're working on our own, and we don't talk to anybody.
137
How you breathe during those moments, can either be protecting your vocal instrument or damaging it.
138
A lot of people without realizing, while they're not using their voice, they're defaulting to mouth breathing,
139
which dries out your throat and your vocal cords.
140
It leads to shallow breathing, and you often feel more fatigued as a result of mouth breathing.
141
Whereas if you start to train and develop a new habit, and you always default to, Nose breathing.
142
The benefits are just crazy.
143
We take over 20 ,000 breaths a day.
144
So if you can just learn this one simple habit, replace mouth breathing with nose breathing, It's going to optimize how you feel.
145
It's going to optimize your health dramatically, and it compounds fast.
146
When you breathe with your nose, one, it humidifies the air.
147
Two, it keeps your throat and vocal cords hydrated and moist.
148
Three, it improves oxygen efficiency by 20%.
149
Four, it also activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which helps you relax and feel more calm.
150
It filters out all the bad stuff.
151
That's why we all have hair on the inside of our nose.
152
So you shouldn't wax it.
153
Don't wax it.
154
I've seen those waxing videos.
155
Why would you do it?
156
It looks so painful.
157
I bet this is something you've never thought about.
158
You just thought, oh, breathing is just breathing.
159
Whether I breathe through my mouth or my nose, it's the same thing.
160
So this is an important habit check.
161
Just check.
162
What's your default breathing method?
163
Is it through your mouth or through your more volume when you speak.
164
Now keep in mind, I'm not talking about shouting.
165
That's not what I'm talking about.
166
I'm talking about speaking with more presence, with more vitality, with volume that fills the space.
167
When you speak in a healthy volume, you're not just sharing information, you're transferring energy.
168
Every time you speak, your vocal cords, they vibrate.
169
And those vibrations, they travel through the air and they hit other people's ears.
170
And it tells them Do you know what they say?
171
They say, "I'm alive, I care and I believe in what I'm saying." People don't just hear what you're saying, they feel it.
172
Volume isn't just about being heard, it's about being felt.
173
People subconsciously link vocal strength to personal strength.
174
When your voice is small, they assume your ideas are small too.
175
But when your voice carries, So does your conviction.
176
A lot of people tend to think that speaking louder is being too much.
177
When what's actually too common is playing too small.
178
If you don't speak up, people can't connect.
179
They can't connect with your voice, they can't connect with your energy, they can't connect with you.
180
Alright, let's move on to group number three: cognitive habits.
181
Cognitive habit number one: if you want to sound more clear, if you want to sound smarter, and you want to sound more confident, finish one thought at a time.
182
When you don't finish a thought before starting the next one, your listener has to mentally chase you, and most of the time they actually won't chase you,
183
they'll just zone out.
184
Imagine I did this.
185
So I think we should run the marketing campaign next week.
186
Oh, oh, and and
187
and I also thought um Did you see what the team said about the conversion rates on the landing page
188
and and and oh, sorry?
189
The other thing is did you also watch the football game last night?
190
It was a crazy game.
191
What a wild night and and actually sorry let's let's um stay on topic
192
and talk about oh the football game at lunch because that's where we should talk about football.
193
Not in the middle of a team meeting.
194
Oh, by the way, did you want to head out for lunch today?
195
Do you want to eat in?
196
Because I I think we also need to rethink the budget that we're spending on the marketing campaign as well.
197
Oh, far out.
198
Making this video just makes me feel bad because I used to do every single one of these things wrong.
199
And did you notice in that example of me just rambling there?
200
No structure, no clarity, your brain is multitasking mid -sentence.
201
It's trying to say something while also thinking of the next thing, and that creates fragmented speech.
202
and it sounds unsure, scattered and messy, even if your ideas are brilliant.
203
And that's the painful part.
204
Master communicators do this instead.
205
They start a thought, they finish it, Then they pause and then they move on to the next idea.
206
Here's the example: Listen, Tim, we should launch the campaign next week.
207
Let's make sure the whole team is aligned on that as a goal.
208
Thank you.
209
Everyone also raised a good point about the landing page.
210
Let's put in a plan for conversion rate optimization.
211
And I also want to ask you all for a big favor.
212
We might have to do a working lunch today.
213
Is everyone cool with that?
214
Is everyone okay with that?
215
Those were the same ideas, but now that they're structured, it's digestible, it's more persuasive.
216
And let me ask you this: have you ever had a great idea, but halfway through explaining it, you could see people getting confused?
217
Look, we've all been there.
218
You're not the problem.
219
Your structure is.
220
And that's why I want to show you a simple three -step framework to make you a better communicator.
221
And that's cognitive habit number two.
222
Learn to use frameworks.
223
Let's use an example here together.
224
Let's say you were talking to your boss about releasing an online course with a tight timeline
225
for the business
226
and often without frameworks this is how we would do it
227
this is how you do it right you do it like this um hey boss i'm
228
so sorry about this but i was looking at where we are with this current project
229
and what has to be done by the editing team
230
and the marketing team agrees with me because i've talked to them about it
231
and i've also talked to the general manager and they said that if
232
if i don't tell you this i mean i need to
233
tell you this we're going to need more people on the project
234
because if we don't get extra support i don't think we're going to be hit the deadline.
235
And we will disappoint a lot of customers
236
because we sent out six promotional emails saying that it's going to be ready in four weeks.
237
And if it's not ready in four weeks, what's that going to do to our branding?
238
Oh man, I said it and it was hard to listen to.
239
And I was the one talking!
240
So here's a simple framework and it's called CCC.
241
And it stands for Context core, and connect.
242
And what this framework does is it allows you to turn complex ideas
243
and explain them in a way that actually makes sense and in a way that's simple.
244
Here's how it works.
245
Context.
246
Set the scene.
247
Give people the why before the what.
248
Most people rush towards the what, their content.
249
Don't.
250
Give them context first.
251
Then you move to the core.
252
Deliver the main idea.
253
Keep it clear, keep it simple.
254
And there should only be one main idea here and then connect, show them why it matters to them, the relevance.
255
So for example, if you bring that all together, here's how it works.
256
Hey boss!
257
As you know, we're about to release the new online course and the timing is tight.
258
Look, we're going to need extra editors if you want to meet the deadline.
259
This is going to allow us to finish on time and without burning the team out and at the same time, protect the brand.
260
That's the power of frameworks.
261
You stop over explaining, you stop losing people, and you go from rambling to resonating.
262
And beautiful communication is when you're able to be clear, concise, and coherent.
263
And look, if you're new around here and you want to learn more frameworks, because after learning CCC, you're like, "Wow, I love frameworks !" Then I teach three of the
264
most powerful frameworks in the world of communication inside a free two -hour masterclass that I've recorded for you.
265
And if you want access to that, just click the link below in the description or click the link in the pinned comment down below.
266
When you learn these frameworks in this free masterclass that I recorded for you, on the spot, in the moment, while under pressure.
267
You're going to love it.
268
Go check it out.
269
And now let's get on to the final cognitive habit.
270
If you learn how to use this final cognitive habit, you're going to better explain complex ideas with absolute ease.
271
I remember this one time my mum was trying to explain to my dad how compounding interest works.
272
Mum was the book smart one, dad wasn't.
273
And this is how mum explained it to dad.
274
Okay, okay, honey, you're ready to learn.
275
Okay, the compounding interest is the exponential Not only on the principal,
276
but also on the previously accumulated interest.
277
Huh?
278
You understand honey?
279
Ayyyaa, so stooppurd.
280
It's so ridiculous right, because while I was listening to my mum, I didn't understand it.
281
My dad didn't understand it, so do you know what my mum did?
282
She said the exact same thing.
283
She just said it slower.
284
Just by saying the exact same thing slower, she expected him to get it.
285
Yeah, my dad and I, we still didn't get it.
286
So the next time someone doesn't get what you're saying, instead of just explaining it slower or harder,
287
explain it differently with an analogy.
288
Analogies are shortcuts to understanding.
289
They take something complex and they tie it to something simple and familiar.
290
And that's what makes them powerful.
291
It connects the unknown to the known.
292
Now let's go back to the example of my mum trying to explain compounding interest to my dad.
293
Instead of using that overly complex definition, she should have just used the classic snowball analogy.
294
Compounding interest is like rolling a snowball downhill.
295
At first, it's really small.
296
But as it rolls, it picks up more snow.
297
And the bigger it gets, the faster it grows.
298
The earlier you start rolling investing, the bigger your snowball becomes.
299
And it's actually scary how big the snowball can get.
300
And if you start rolling investing early, soon the snowball rolls faster than you can run.
301
That's way easier to digest, right?
302
And because my mum was always the more educated one in the family, she would always educate my dad and me and her sisters.
303
And because of that, My dad was able to buy his dream car when I was young.
304
My dad, yes, he had a dream sports car.
305
He owned a Nissan 300Z.
306
Oh my god, it was one of the most sexiest cars I've ever seen in my life.
307
And yes, that right there you see is me trying to get in his sports car and take it for a spin.
308
Get back on point, Finn.
309
When you use analogies, you tap into visual memory, emotional resonance and real world logic all at once.
310
Analogies do
311
three things first they make your message stick
312
two they make complex ideas simple and three they make you relatable
313
and more memorable so if you want to be remembered stop explaining
314
and start connecting the complex and the unknown with the familiar and the known.
315
These nine habits have completely changed the way I communicate, and more importantly, how I connect with others.
316
The better you speak, the more of your true self the world gets to me.
317
And if you ever doubted the power of your voice, let me leave you with this beautiful quote by Maya Angelou who says, "People will forget what you've said.
318
People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel
319
so go practice go get better not to impress anyone
320
but rather to connect more deeply because
321
when you speak more clearly with more clarity with more confidence
322
and with more care guess what people start to listen and
323
if you're still craving more communication lessons if this has not quenched your thirst then keep going Dive deeper,
324
click this video here and see how deep this rabbit hole actually goes.
325
I warn you.
326
Once you dump down this next rabbit hole, You may never Get out.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
