Stop choking the hose.

This is why you're not able to speak like you think

and understanding this concept is going to change the way that you communicate for the rest of your life.

Let me give you the 10 second version of this video for all of you attention junkies.

Here it is in one sentence.

When you reopen the childlike channel of flow, breath, body and mind, your ideas come out alive and brilliant.

You become like a mad scientist, fully unchained.

Now, I want to develop this idea of the hose and the mad scientist over the course of this video, of becoming more like a mad scientist when you speak.

You ever see this mad scientist types who just go crazy talking about things, and there's almost this passion and excitement for what they say.

The hair's all wild, they haven't shaved in three months, and they've been rotting in the closet for two months, and hopefully have produced some cure for cancer in the process.

there's something happening there that most people never experience.

There's a beauty in someone who is so unbelievably unconcerned about what others think

that their message matters more than how they appear.

And I don't mean physical appearance.

I also mean verbal appearance, the package of how they say things and how they show up.

And there's a connection made here between the mind and the mouth that cancels out awareness.

It cancels out care for appearance.

And that's a very pure state of communication.

And that's something that most people just never experience.

Or there are a select few topics in life that they talk about in which they encounter this.

But if you follow what is in this video and what we're about to learn, you're going to be able to access this state more.

And this is a secret, by the way, to be able to say brilliant things

or speak articulately or have profound insights for you create lightning in a bottle.

And this is a secret

that many of the top people in the world know to be able to access parts of their mind

that remain unavailable to most people.

And it starts by relearning how to think like a child.

I'm dead serious on this.

I love explaining this to people.

When you were a child, you're relatively stupid in the way that you communicated and thought.

not stupid as being an idiot, stupid in the sense that you didn't know and you didn't care that you didn't know about certain things.

When you were excited, you were sharing something like it was the only thing in the world that mattered.

And there's a healthy amount of innocence and purity in this way of thinking

that was something that we began to limit within ourselves as we grew older.

As we grew older, we became more aware.

And that circle that used to be about our idea

and what we wanted to share expanded to included other things other people our awareness bubble became wider

and we began to take in and process much more in our environment

and this relationship is something

that changed over time we began to make decisions based on

the external other people what our senses tell us what our

eyes see what our nose smells our ears here versus the

internal what we feel we want to share what the content is inside of our mind

so a common example is let's say a child decides to kick a ball

and then he becomes aware of someone who's watching him do

that with a frown their arms are crossed now

that child stops they stop kicking the ball and they don't

or they don't put in as much effort

because now their awareness expanded to include what the other person

is thinking about them judgment has now entered the chat

and this happens all the time in what we share especially

in high pressure scenarios where there's a very extreme external variable

which could be maybe someone who intimidates us it could be the stuffiness in the room

or something in our environment and it limits the effort

that we put into our ideas

because we're now taking into an account these external factors inside of the bubble instead of the childlike internal one

and this is one of the main kinks in our communications hose

and this is one of the three kinks

that we're going to iron out in this video we're going

to return back to this pure flow of information this is

the end state the effortless stream of what's in our mind getting

that into words and staying in that flow this is how you achieve brilliant insights

because here's the truth

that i've discovered with working with hundreds of people over the

last year brilliance is your default they're already brilliant like you

can already say clever things you have enough you have good

ideas in your mind you simply don't know how to access the flow between mind

and mouth there are too many bends in the hose

that we have to unkink and fix

and they're probably environments in your life where you might not

have a problem doing this like we talked about earlier there are things

that are of interest to you topics that you can discuss

that mean something and typically for most people these are their hobbies

or their faith or their belief system or their principles that they build on and live off of.

And this brings us back more to our natural state when we talk about these things.

And so when we talk about the bends and the hose

and straightening them out and getting more to that natural creative state that you had many decades ago.

If you're an entrepreneur, business owner or high performer

and you like the concept in this video and you want it to be something that you do effortlessly under pressure, click the link below to apply for Elite Speak.

Elite Speak is my signature program where you work with me directly to identify

and overcome the three communication bottlenecks that are limiting your influence, authority, and room control.

I'll see you on the call.

So the first problem that's happening to you is that emotion expression cannot exist in a hyper-analytical state.

So a common exercise that I give people is to try to become 50% happy.

Become 50% happy.

What happens? you can't become 50 happy

when you begin to analyze emotion you take yourself out of the emotion out of the feeling

and you enter into what we call head speak it's very structured it's very analytical conscientious thinking

and this is why when we train speakers the number one thing

that we focus on is getting out of your own head because overthinking is the deadliest of speech cancers

brilliant insights they come from when a person has a playful relationship with ideas

and playfulness is an emotional state

that you have to let it almost overtake you in a way

and this is what you had as a child

and we have to return to this state

and the first major characteristic of this child

or this playfulness is a relaxed nervous system what has happened over time is

that your body your nerves have developed to present

and perform in a certain way and this has caused you to not make relaxation

100

and calmness the norm for you it's almost like

101

your nervous system has become calcified your playfulness has become calcified

102

and when we talk about relaxing the nervous system we're talking about allowing yourself to relax

103

and train that as your default

104

and this takes time it's the analogy i often give is

105

like going in for a massage you might feel better temporarily

106

but you have to keep stretching

107

and engage in the the physical therapy in order to maintain that state of relaxation and flexibility.

108

And then 10 weeks later, you can touch your toes effortlessly.

109

So how do we do this?

110

What are we talking about here practically?

111

Well, you can't retrain your nervous system in a day.

112

What you do have control over is your breath and your body.

113

And so one piece of advice

114

that I would offer up is to become more aware of your breath and how it influences your speech.

115

So when we watch back the interviews and meetings that our clients send us, the first thing I listen to is their breathing pattern.

116

Specifically, where is their breath coming from?

117

How loudly are they comfortable breathing?

118

What is the rhythm of their breath?

119

Is the breath coming from their stomach?

120

Is it coming from like their lower ribs?

121

Or is it coming from their chest or their throat?

122

Where are they breathing?

123

Are they breathing at the beginning of their sentence or mid-sentence?

124

A lot of these things aren't conscious things we're aware of, but they reveal the full display of our nervous system.

125

And when we understand this, we realize that we can actually influence nervous system in the moment with our breath

126

and we can influence the way that we feel

127

and how calm we are

128

and how grounded we are by bringing attention to where we breathe how loudly we're breathing

129

or where we're breathing in the sentence

130

or how many words we're saying per breath and

131

so one of the exercises

132

that i want to give you i'm going to link the very best tutorial

133

that i found on how to do this below this video is learning to breathe with your stomach

134

or from your stomach

135

learning to breathe from your your diaphragm filling your your belly with air

136

and talking from that because that gives you more of a grounded quality and i'm not talking about

137

increasing the influence in your speech or making it more impactful

138

or authoritative like certainly that is a secondary outcome

139

but this is more so that you feel better

140

when you speak this is not about the external impact this is about how you feel internally

141

and it's the most satisfying feeling in the world

142

when you learn how to breathe properly this is what elite communicators know how to do

143

and it just feels so right once you get

144

that right the second thing

145

that i'm going to encourage you to do is to increase the overall words per breath

146

that you are comfortable with so what this looks like is reading through a paragraph

147

and there's a document that has a series of parables

148

that you can read through for our clients i'll link it below this video read through

149

that hit record

150

and see how long it takes you to get through with

151

one breath most of you're probably not going to be able

152

to go through four to five sentences without running out of air what you're going to find is

153

that you're now aware of how much breath

154

that you put on each word see what a lot of

155

people do is they'll fill their lungs with oxygen they'll fill their stomach with air

156

and they'll then lose 50 of that air and the first few words because they don't have good breath control.

157

And so this is one of the reasons why run on sentences tend to happen or a person might

158

get to the point where they're at the end of their sentence

159

and they're just exhausted and exasperated because they've depleted a lot of the oxygen

160

because they don't have good breath control because their words per breath are not as high as they could be.

161

So this is something to train.

162

This is something to measure and become aware of and just practice increasing that.

163

If your words per breath are 50, maybe get it to 55.

164

And there's a routine for this that I'll link below this video.

165

So what this is helping us do is really develop a calm nervous system by learning how to breathe properly, by focusing on our words per breath.

166

Or another way of thinking about this is practicing a soft, unashamed inhale.

167

So you have to do something to either affect the exhale, which is the words per breath.

168

How many words are you focusing on per breath?

169

And this is something you do in a dedicated training practice, by the way.

170

You set aside time, five minutes a day, and you just drill this.

171

This is what we call a verbal workout.

172

This is what we give our clients.

173

This is not something that you need to be doing or should be focusing on when you're speaking.

174

Do not be doing that.

175

You don't want to overanalyze the playground while you're on the playground.

176

But focusing on either the exhale with the breath, the words per breath, or the soft,

177

unashamed inhale, which is just developing the ability to fill your lungs with oxygen and be comfortable with that.

178

It's not supposed to be a statement.

179

It's just something that you are doing for your own internal comfort.

180

And this last way is the slow breath before a sentence.

181

So this is focused on exhale, which is before you begin to speak, exhale slightly, let your breath out,

182

and then begin to trace that exhale with your words.

183

And what this allows you to do is create momentum and allows your first few words to be very smooth.

184

And if you focus on these three exercises and just maybe spend one minute on each of these, what you'll notice is that your nervous system will be significantly calmer.

185

you'll like the way that you sound

186

and you'll have a very calm grounded playful quality to the way

187

that you start speaking

188

if you need more detail on these just ask me in the comment section

189

and I'm happy to develop these further

190

so what we're going to focus on next is how to get your body more comfortable

191

and what I mean by that is be comfortable in the way

192

that you express yourself physically so if we think back to

193

that analogy of the child as a child we're relatively unafraid to like put our hands in the air or look silly.

194

You never really thought about that as a child.

195

When you put your hands in the air, how silly that is.

196

There is a very silly part of us that many of us are afraid to show.

197

And I'm not suggesting you put your hands in the air as you talk to your board of directors

198

or deliver the Gettysburg Address.

199

But what I want you to do next time that you speak is focus on incorporating what we call a personality break.

200

So what a personality break is, it's little human leak into your communication.

201

It's a little part of you that reveals your quirks early on.

202

So you stop spending mental energy trying to hide part of who you are.

203

So I'll give you an example.

204

I trained a sales coach a little

205

while ago to reduce overthinking in his videos by starting his

206

videos by the simple action of drinking a glass of water on camera.

207

Then he would do this right after he hit record.

208

Then he would drink the water.

209

And that action was unprofessional, but it's something he would do all the time and cut out.

210

And that gave him the ability to now embrace his unprofessional self that didn't create a huge expectation to perform.

211

And he was on full display exactly how he wanted to.

212

Another example is the famous comedian and storyteller Rory Sutherland.

213

If you watch his videos and his interviews, he always crosses his arms on his stomach, not for any special analytical strategic reason,

214

but because that's just what is most comfortable to him.

215

It's not professional, but that's his personality on full display.

216

A common example that I often give, too, is someone who might have a bracelet or prayer beads.

217

This is the illustration here.

218

As you're speaking, you're doing something that's a little bit unconventional.

219

You might be thumbing through beads or fiddling around with something that you have, a tassel, a trinket.

220

It might be the way that you hold a pen.

221

this is the idea of creating like a power object something

222

that you know you you're not fidgeting with but it's natural to you

223

that allows you to be very forward with a fundamental part of who you are

224

and it's part of the way that you communicate

225

and it allows you to bring more of you effortlessly into the way

226

that you present it's bringing the physical realm into your presentations more so So what this is really helping with fundamentally is,

227

this is kind of a call back to what we talked about earlier, the internal and the external.

228

You're bringing the circle more back onto yourself, not in a selfish or egocentric way, but you're choosing to focus more on the impact

229

that happens inside of the circle in your space and not so much on what's happening in the audience or the external.

230

Because what happens, and the truth is with most people, is we're so easily influenced by what happens in the external.

231

We might see a disapproving facial reaction, or someone says something negative, and now the mind kicks in.

232

And so what this is really helping with fundamentally is this is kind of a callback to the internal

233

and the external bubbles that we talked about earlier, where you're bringing more of the focus back onto yourself, not in a selfish or egocentric way, But you're choosing to focus more on the impact

234

that happens inside of this circle and not as much on what's happening in the external circle.

235

Because what happens is people are very easily influenced by what happens in this external circle.

236

They might see a disapproving facial reaction or someone says something negative

237

or swears at them and the mind kicks in and now they're overthinking everything that they're saying.

238

And what you have to do is overpower that.

239

And you can do that with that personality break, that little human leak, that part of you that's making itself front and center in what you do.

240

For example, this coffee cup that I decided to include in this video because, well, I'm always drinking coffee in the morning and it's a very unprofessional thing to do in a video.

241

I'm not doing this strategically.

242

I'm just doing this because it makes me feel comfortable and it makes this environment feel more natural to me.

243

So that's one way that you can do this.

244

The other way to do this is to just get very comfortable with punching up the next five words.

245

So what this looks like is over-egging your tone a little bit.

246

And when you feel those little lethal thoughts, those external influencing marks entering into your mind, you feel yourself stepping into the external,

247

and maybe you're not comfortable yet with the personality break, one way to bring it back to yourself and your messaging is to just punch up the next five words.

248

Just raise your volume by 10 to 20%.

249

You don't have to shout, but what you're doing is you're doubling the distance of what you're speaking to.

250

It's a very simple way of thinking about it.

251

So if you normally speak to someone five feet away, think about speaking to someone 10 feet away.

252

And that's just causing you to be a little bit more aware of yourself, your expression, and what you're putting out there into the world.

253

That's focusing on the internal.

254

There's a spore that's happening for most communicators, especially the overthinkers, where they're stepping in and out between the internal and the external all the time during their speaking.

255

They're evaluating what they say and how it's reflected in their environment, and then what they're trying to say.

256

And this is happening multiple times within the span of a single sentence.

257

And it's extremely exhausting.

258

And this really surfaces the next challenge that I want to talk about, which is winning this battle of the mind.

259

And this is a concept that we teach called developing good cognitive security

260

so what good cognitive security is is it's the ability to defend your mental territory

261

and defend your thoughts like there's a version of that child

262

that we talked about earlier on the playground where before he even stepped onto the playground thinks about the spiders

263

that are in there or the ant piles

264

or the other bullies on the playground

265

and never begin to even want to have fun and

266

so what we have to be very protective of is the peace

267

and the calmness that we bring to our conversational territory

268

because there's a version of us that overthinks every potential threat and danger and becomes incredibly guarded

269

and you can really get a sense for someone who is

270

that way when they speak there tends to be a lot of buffering

271

or hesitation or the inability to just go all in

272

and talk about what is of most interest to them

273

so the biggest exercise that i can give you the highest leverage one

274

that i've seen most helpful is what we talked about earlier

275

which is getting comfortable punching up the next five words

276

and whenever you have one of those thoughts which can be something as simple as

277

how is my idea coming across or i'm stupid for thinking about this or any of those self-sabotaging

278

incredibly destructive thinking patterns whenever you find yourself engaging in those

279

just force up the next five words

280

and it's almost a way of turning up the volume on

281

the radio to drown out the noises of the crowd it's

282

a very practical way of helping yourself not give attention to what is going on in the external

283

or what's going on upstairs in the mind that's preventing you from stepping on the playground in the first place

284

and what this is going to help you develop is just good cognitive security

285

and being very protective of the mental real estate that you have

286

and your involvement in your thought in the moment your idea

287

and not allowing that to be muddied by anything

288

that might distract you from developing and pursuing the mission

289

that you're on with your words and

290

so that's really the third kink in this hose

291

that we've straightened out and

292

when you find this the hose fully straightened out you're not bounded by your breath your body

293

or your mind you have control over those

294

and you have the ability to set yourself up for success

295

and what you find is it's an incredible unlock for your speech

296

because it becomes boundless and you end up playing brilliantly with your ideas

297

and that's what i want to encourage each of you to

298

do is put this into practice play with your words and speak well hope this helps

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.
