1
Not being able to speak coherently on YouTube is the number one problem that people come to me for help with
2
because it is the number one skill on YouTube that makes a difference.
3
They might be saying, Thomas, what are you talking about?
4
I could just use a script and a teleprompter and then my speaking problems go away.
5
Yeah, that's true.
6
It's true.
7
But a lot of us don't want to do that, myself included.
8
I really hate reading from a teleprompter.
9
It makes me feel super robotic, inauthentic, and thousands of my followers agree with me.
10
It's also a matter of fact that AI right now is flooding our feeds with professional, polished, scripted looking videos.
11
So making yourself as distinguishable from that as possible is great.
12
And YouTube is trending right now with raw, authentic and natural content.
13
So by leaning into this trend, we can become more human.
14
We can speak with more freedom.
15
We can get more engagement and get better retention as well.
16
And it's all about learning the skill of speaking coherently.
17
So in this video, I want to show you exactly how to do that.
18
And not only just do that for yourself to speak better and feel better whilst making content, but also make videos that get hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube, like these ones I'm putting on screen.
19
They will follow the exact method that I'm about to show you.
20
So let's crack into it.
21
The first thing you're going to want to do is ditch the script and make a plan.
22
And the perfect plan isn't a very complicated plan.
23
In fact, it should look something like this.
24
A three-year-old could make it.
25
That's the idea.
26
To clarify your thoughts, first up, you might want to do some writing.
27
Writing is great for clarifying thoughts.
28
So you can go away, you can get some books, you can collect stories from your inexperience, all of the knowledge that you need to synthesize in your brain.
29
Writing out your thoughts on a topic can be an amazing thing to do.
30
but only to clarify your own thinking.
31
You don't actually want to then use what you've written as a script
32
or as a plan for a video because you're going to be jumbling over your own words.
33
Once you've written everything out you're going to want to say it exactly how you've written it
34
and then you may as well just buy a teleprompter at that point.
35
So instead what you want to do is
36
if you have written something you then want to transfer
37
that into a video plan like this and you want to have only one
38
or two words written for each point and one
39
or two words written for each sub bullet point
40
which is going to trigger your memory to then know
41
that all right I'm going to talk about that exact thing right now.
42
Now one of you guys asked me the question very recently
43
how do I keep myself reined in whilst speaking through bullet points and this is exactly how you do that.
44
Most people
45
when they go unscripted they think right I'm going to just
46
like jot out three points you're going to have like three main tips
47
or steps in this video I'm going to jot out those points
48
and then I'm just going to speak off the cuff around those things.
49
And then they go down a thousand rabbit holes and the whole thing starts taking a lot longer than they thought.
50
And the video is not very engaging.
51
This is where these three sub bullet points comes in.
52
And under each each sub-bullet point you're going to want to write something very specific.
53
Underneath the first bullet point we're going to write pull, and then a couple of words.
54
So like this, pull.
55
Under the next one we're going to write paint, and then a couple of other words that I'll fill in in just a second.
56
And then under the fourth one the third one sorry we're
57
going to write point we've got pull paint point now what
58
each of these things refer to is a specific psychological storytelling
59
or communication device that we are using within our points
60
that are going to hook our viewers
61
and allow all of our videos to make people understand things in a way
62
that they haven't heard before make your information feel new compelling
63
and engaging this is the secret source behind making unscripted videos that actually perform well.
64
It's using the same psychological principles that people put in scripted videos
65
that are trying to hook viewers with every sentence that they're saying.
66
And instead, just taking the gas off that a little bit, but making sure that you have them throughout your video, right?
67
So before each point, you wanna simply explain in the pull section why this point matters to your viewer.
68
And so you put a couple of views.
69
Let's say this point was about building muscle in the gym.
70
And we're gonna call this point overload, right?
71
You can see that.
72
that's all I'm literally going to write for this point.
73
Overload.
74
That's the name of the point.
75
Now that might not mean much to you, but it means something to me.
76
And that is the important thing because you're not showing your view as your plan.
77
You're just triggering thoughts and bite-sized nuggets of information from within your own brain.
78
So in the pool, I might say, right, overload.
79
Why is progressive overload in the gym important?
80
And that means, by the way, getting stronger every time you work out.
81
And so the pool is something like, if you don't follow this, you won't make any progress, right?
82
You'd just be spinning your wheels.
83
So let's say spinning wheels.
84
You won't be able to read this, but you get the idea.
85
That's literally what I've written for that sub bullet point.
86
In the next one, we've got paint, right?
87
What's an analogy, story, metaphor, or example I can use in this point?
88
Maybe I could tell a story about person A versus person B, right?
89
I'm just going to write that.
90
A versus B.
91
So I could say something like, oh, Brian goes to the gym and he works out and he chases a pump.
92
He feels good.
93
He likes to get that feeling of blood in his muscles and he does that for a year.
94
He doesn't make too much progress versus Jason who goes in
95
and tracks his lifts and adds a tiny little plate to each lift every time that he works out.
96
By the end of it, he's lifting way more weight and he gets great results, right?
97
So that's just triggered an analogy in my mind to illustrate how this might work.
98
And that's why I call it paint.
99
Just to explain the I'm getting ahead of myself here.
100
The pull is pulling your audience in, right?
101
That first sub-bullet point.
102
How can I pull you in?
103
The second one is paint because you're illustrating, you're splashing paint on the canvas with a story analogy or metaphor.
104
And then the point.
105
So what is the actual point?
106
Well, the actual point here is going to be something along the lines of progressive overload, right?
107
So notice that in the pool and the paint, I haven't actually yet explained what I'm talking about.
108
I'm just saying this is really important because if you don't do it, you're going to spin your wheels.
109
And then I'm saying, here's an example of two people doing two different things.
110
And then you drop the point.
111
And the point would be something like add weight, right?
112
That's all I'm going to add here.
113
So this is the actual instructions.
114
This is the actual action steps.
115
Add a little bit of weight every time you work out.
116
That's it.
117
That's how I'd structure my point.
118
And so this, using this structure and this formula, is exactly how I can speak off the cuff, sometimes just in one take with no edits,
119
sometimes with just a few cuts throughout my video, and sometimes more cuts.
120
And it doesn't matter.
121
I'm still speaking off the cuff.
122
I'm just starting and stopping fairly regularly.
123
This is how I do that and make videos that get hundreds of thousands of views because I use this formula.
124
It keeps everything feeling new and engaging for the audience.
125
It boosts retention because people want to watch till the end
126
and it makes it easy for me to remember the most important thing.
127
I'm not following a script and trying to look at something I've already pre-written out
128
and then say it in my own words again.
129
I'm just using little points here to trigger my memory as each of these one
130
or two words just trigger something in my brain where I know cool now I'm going to talk about spinning wheels.
131
Cool now I'm going to talk about A versus B.
132
Cool, now I'm going to talk about adding weight in the actual action step.
133
If you have three points in your video, just copy that structure for each one of your points, and that's how you stay on track when you speak.
134
Okay, that's all great, but we have a problem now, which is, all right, Thomas, this structure sounds great.
135
I've got my one-page plan.
136
This is all good in theory, but I still can't really say these points coherently.
137
My sentences are full of filler words.
138
I feel a bit unconfident.
139
I don't know how to just keep my train of thought whilst looking at the camera.
140
I'm going to tell you a secret to overcome all of that and help you massively with it in just a sec.
141
But first, if you actually want help planning out these points in your videos, I've got a custom GPT called Pull Paint Point, and it's going to help you with all of this.
142
All you need to do is grab your phone.
143
Let's pretend this glasses case is my phone.
144
And you just press the button, which says dictate into ChatGPT, into this custom GPT.
145
And you say, right, I've got this point idea about this, this, this, this, this.
146
I kind of think I want to talk about this and this is kind of like an example idea I had.
147
Be super lazy, take like a couple of minutes, give it a lot of detail but be lazy with it, don't structure it.
148
Press enter and the GPT will spit you out a pull paint point structure
149
that will light your brain on fire and you'll be like, you'll select from a few different options and it will just craft your point for you.
150
The key here to using this custom GPT is give it a lot of information.
151
The more information you give your AI helper, the more it's going to help you craft your own voice
152
and retain your tone of voice and your image
153
and your sound rather than starting to sound like something that you wouldn't actually say.
154
Okay, cool.
155
So how do we actually solve this coherence problem?
156
What we want to do is point practice reps.
157
And what that means is for every point,
158
let's say point one, what you're going to do is set a two minute timer on your phone and record yourself.
159
This is before you record your actual YouTube video and do a practice rep.
160
So this is gonna look like setting up your phone beside you, press on record, and you have your points in front of you.
161
And all you're gonna do is memorize the order of the points.
162
See if you can memorize this with me.
163
This is what you're gonna be doing.
164
Pull, spinning your wheels.
165
Paint, A versus B.
166
Pull, progressive overload.
167
And then you're gonna talk for two minutes.
168
And I'm not very fresh on this, So I'm going to be practicing as well.
169
So let's pretend you're the phone.
170
So pull spinning wheels.
171
This first point is the difference between spinning your wheels in the gym
172
and not actually making any progress and building any muscle versus being completely unrecognizable in one year.
173
And it's something that almost 99% of people don't do, which is only why the top 1% of people actually get results.
174
So imagine this, we've got Brian over here and Jason over here.
175
Brian goes to the gym and he chases a pump.
176
He goes around doing bicep curls because they feel good, picking a random weight each time.
177
He also does some overhead press because it feels good in his shoulders.
178
And he just sort of swings the weights around and just starts like chasing a pump.
179
And in the mirror, he looks great because he's got that little pump.
180
But over a year, he takes an after photo of himself compared to the before and he doesn't look any different.
181
Jason, on the other hand, goes to the gym and he writes down every single weight
182
that he's lifted for the amount of reps that he's lifted that as well.
183
The first set, he does eight reps with 30 kilograms on bench press.
184
Yeah, not very strong starting out.
185
Then the next week he comes back and he realizes he can do nine and he writes that down.
186
Then the next week he thinks, right, I'm going to go to 35 kilos.
187
He goes back to seven reps, but he's writing down every time.
188
By the end of the year, he's now benching 80 kilograms rather than 30 and his body looks completely unrecognizable.
189
Now I've lost my train of thought, which is fine because it's a practice rep.
190
So what did Jason do that Rob didn't?
191
Well, Jason used a concept called progressive overload, meaning that every single day he tracked his weight and he got stronger every single time.
192
You see adding strength is the number one predictor of actually transforming your body.
193
If you get stronger it's almost impossible for your body not to start looking different.
194
So when you go to the gym make sure that you write down your lifts.
195
Cool stop recording the phone that was a practice point rep.
196
I got one rep in I'm not talking about fitness anymore.
197
I got one rep in of practicing that point.
198
Great.
199
I'm already ahead of most people.
200
Most people never practice their points.
201
They just press record and start rambling.
202
What if I did that two more times?
203
It's not that much effort and it literally takes one or two minutes every time you do it.
204
But if I did that two more times, you'd bet by the time I actually recorded that YouTube video, I'd be speaking pretty damn coherently.
205
This concept of speaking reps is built into the 30-day talking to camera challenge.
206
We've got thousands of members on the inside, practicing their speaking every single day, transforming themselves from feeling awkward to speaking confidently on camera.

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.
