ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: How to Speak Articulately (Full Course)

By the end of this video, you are going to learn how to be an articulate speaker, how to speak better than 99 % of the human population.

So lock in, give me a few minutes and I will guide you through it.

What is the purpose of communication?

This is the most important place to start

because then you will know what techniques you really need and what techniques you can leave and save yourself some time.

The purpose of communication is to change behavior.

To change behavior.

And yes, I do spell it with a U because I had British education.

Change behavior.

Okay?

Now, some people might say, well, what about beliefs?

Yes, you also change people's beliefs.

But if you change people's beliefs, guess what happens?

You change their behavior.

So I want you to remember this.

Effective communication is about changing behavior.

This will make more sense as we get into the details of this.

If you are a CEO, for example, okay, what is your job?

Your job is to paint a strategy that people follow.

Your job is to convince people to work for your company to get the best talents.

Your job is to sell the product to your customers.

All of this involves changing behavior.

This is what a CEO or a leader does.

Whether you are an employee or a leader,

you in some way want to affect people on the other side of your communication to change their behavior.

But now, I'm going to say something a little controversial, okay?

Let's say you're someone and you speak with the best vocabulary.

You have the best words in the world.

Every time you open your mouth, people think, wow, where did you find this word?

That is amazing.

Let's say that you have the most organized, well -structured presentation.

Let's say you don't say a single um or uh.

Let's say you have an amazing use of gestures and body language.

And let's say that when you speak, you are very high energy.

You're not boring, okay?

Go with me here.

Let's say you have all of these things that people associate with a good communicator.

So let me ask you this.

What if someone had great vocabulary, a well -structured presentation, no ums and ahs,

high energy, but their presentation doesn't change behavior.

Is it an effective presentation?

Is it an effective way of speaking?

So we must have some sort of scale, some sort of way to judge what makes some communication more effective than other pieces of communication.

Why am I pointing this out?

Because so often, myself included, we think, if I can just learn how to speak better, how to have better words,

how to improve the sound of my voice, all of a sudden, I'm going to become a better speaker.

And yes, the sound of your voice might improve.

The vocabulary might improve.

But if no one's buying the product, if no one wants to work for your company,

if no one wants to act on the message of your speech, have you changed behavior?

The answer to that is no. So in my books, you can have amazing vocabulary and you can still be a bad speaker.

You can have the best structured presentation.

You can have the best gestures,

no ums and uhs, and you can still be an ineffective speaker because the purpose of communication is to change behavior.

Are you following me?

By the way, if you don't know who I am.

My name is Yasser Khan.

I've coached more than 50 ,000 leaders around the world on how to speak like a CEO with confidence, clarity, and credibility.

Now that you know this, we know whatever we learn in terms of communication skills,

it must have the ability to get people to feel a certain way, get them to think differently or do something differently.

If that doesn't happen, we're not effective.

So the only techniques that we're going to learn today are the ones

that change behavior and this will help you relax a bit more

because so often I hear people saying oh you said um

or this wasn't grammatically correct yes but can you do that

and still change people's behavior

if the answer is yes then we're focusing on the wrong

thing what do we do to speak in a way where we can change people's behavior this is a framework

that I've developed.

is called hub h u b think of it like the

hub of all of your communication has to go through this format i i'll explain what

that means hub let's talk about the h first before you

worry about vocal variation before you very worry about storytelling

when you speak the most basic thing that you need to do when you open your mouth, people must be able to hear you.

This might sound obvious, but I will tell you.

When a lot of people speak, other people, they don't hear what the speaker wants them to hear.

They don't hear because they might be not loud enough.

Maybe they're talking too quietly.

So first, get people to hear you before you get into the other parts of your presentation

or other parts of your speech.

Two quick things we can break this down into.

One is your words or spoken word.

Two is your body.

People, they will look at you and they'll get a message.

They're hearing.

They're paying attention to you.

So you might be saying certain words, But if your body is saying something else, what people are hearing is also going to be different.

Let's start with the words, okay?

So what you actually say.

What determines when the people can actually hear you?

Number one is volume.

Do you speak loud enough for a person, this is an ear, to hear what you're saying?

with experience I will tell you I had a client

and I have many clients who go to the same exact issue they will speak like this

and you know very quiet and you can't understand what they're saying

and I have to ask them can you speak a little bit louder a little bit louder

and whenever I ask them can you speak louder they almost

always say I am speaking louder I feel like I'm screaming

something to know this is an issue for you we have a terrible gauge of how loud we talk.

100

The way you speak is accustomed to how you spoke in your entire life.

101

If you mumble your whole life, that is your normal.

102

That is what you think is normal.

103

For other people, that might not be their normal.

104

So if I ask you or someone says speak louder, you're going to feel uncomfortable in your mind because you think you're screaming or you're talking way too loud.

105

When on the outside, it'll sound completely normal.

106

I can't tell you how often I see this in my classes where someone says, Yasser, I feel like I'm screaming.

107

And I will ask everyone else in the group, do you think like he's screaming?

108

Do you think like she's talking too loud?

109

99 % of the time, no, it sounds completely normal.

110

So if you are someone who struggles with the volume of your voice, speak loud enough that in your mind, it feels uncomfortable.

111

In your mind, it feels uncomfortable because if you speak the way you always do, your brain has no reason to resist it.

112

We're just going to continue doing what we always did.

113

But if all of a sudden you do something new that your mind doesn't associate with your previous personality,

114

it's trying to hold you back into your existing identity.

115

So let's say this is you, and you work as an accountant, you are 27 years old,

116

you're introverted, you bombed a presentation, whatever.

117

All of these you have done, you've spoken a certain way, you have learned from your parents or the people around you,

118

you've spoken a certain way your entire life for 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, 40 years,

119

and eventually you say, this is just who I am.

120

This is how I speak.

121

This is my identity.

122

Well, you weren't born speaking like that.

123

You learned to do it somewhere, right?

124

So a lot of people say, this is who I am, this is my identity, and they lock themselves in there.

125

So when they try speaking louder, what happens is their old identity, remember, the brain doesn't want to change.

126

The brain wants to stay the same.

127

It takes less resources for the brain to, if it doesn't want to change, it doesn't use any resources.

128

But if it has to change, there's a lot of discomfort, a lot of resources the brain has to use.

129

So every time you try something like pausing longer

130

or talking a bit loud your old identity will start saying

131

things like this sounds fake this is too much this is robotic this is inauthentic

132

if this is what you feel quite counterintuitive to understand this,

133

if this is what you feel, you're doing it correctly.

134

you're doing it correctly because your old identity is being threatened

135

if you speak the way you normally do

136

if you're not really pushing the volume pushing the way you communicate then your body is going to be comfortable

137

and there's going to be no change

138

so the way you know you're making progress is you will start to feel uncomfortable

139

that inner identity the voice will start yapping hey what are

140

we doing this is not who we are why are you talking loudly all of a sudden, let's talk the way we always talk.

141

So you want to look for discomfort.

142

So with volume, most of my students struggle with volume because they hear this inner voice.

143

I'm too loud.

144

This is too much.

145

It's not how I talk.

146

It's not who I am.

147

And then they stop.

148

You want to feel like you're talking way too loud.

149

So volume, what can you do about sounding clear so people actually hear you.

150

Enunciate.

151

This is my favorite.

152

Enunciate.

153

Enunciate means, and you will observe this as I am talking, when you say the words, when the words come out of your mouth,

154

can people hear the sounds of each of the individual syllables in the words?

155

So for example, if I was going to talk like this and I was going to say, hey, if you want to get people to listen to you, you got to make sure that they can hear you and your volume is really high.

156

All of the words are combined together.

157

You cannot hear the sounds of the individual syllables in the words.

158

But, and I want you to pay attention to what I'm saying now,

159

as I am talking, you will notice that you can hear just about every single syllable clearly.

160

I am overly pronouncing it.

161

In my mind, I feel like, Yasser, this is ridiculous.

162

You're doing it too much.

163

But on the outside, to you I'm sure, it just sounds like I speak clearly because I enunciate the sounds.

164

What does it mean to enunciate?

165

It means to sound it out. To sound it out.

166

So for example, if I wanted to say extremely excited, or I can say I am extremely excited,

167

what I'm not going to do is say I'm extremely excited.

168

I'm extremely excited.

169

Just mix them together.

170

I am extremely excited.

171

I'm extremely excited.

172

I am extremely excited.

173

Can you hear the difference in the clarity there?

174

Remember, first, they must be able to hear you.

175

If they can't hear what you're saying clearly, the message will not come through.

176

So enunciate your words, meaning move your mouth.

177

A lot of people when they talk, their mouth barely moves and they talk a little bit like this

178

and there's barely any air coming out of their mouth

179

and then they kind of mumble and then they just don't pause and they keep going on and on.

180

Instead notice how my mouth is opening, allowing me to take in air,

181

speak clearly and also project my voice. So enunciate.

182

This is one of those powerhouse skills.

183

If you can learn to enunciate, all other aspects of your speech will improve.

184

You've learned about volume.

185

You've learned about enunciation.

186

Let's talk about pauses.

187

When you speak, let's say you have a sentence

188

and it goes on and on and on and on

189

and you don't stop and you keep talking and you keep talking and you keep talking.

190

Eventually, the audience gets overwhelmed because they have no time to process what you're saying.

191

Connection is made in the space between your words.

192

If you talk and talk and talk, the audience will listen before they have time to really process what you've said.

193

If you give them more information and more information, their brain is constantly playing catch up,

194

constantly playing catch up that they can't process it.

195

And eventually the brain will get tired and they will stop following you

196

so you can say the same thing but what we're looking for here is we're looking to add breaks

197

you want to make sure when you get to the end of a phrase

198

or you get to the end of a sentence

199

there's a slight pause you can hear me do it right

200

now i'm not pausing for two seconds three seconds just a

201

hint of a pause i'll say something let it land say

202

the next thing let it land think about in your mind

203

whenever you have a full stop period comma wherever you have this naturally

204

stop talking for one second allow the person to process and then continue so for example in my TEDx talk,

205

the phrase that resonated with my audience the most is, it's not what you say.

206

it's what they remember.

207

It's not what you say, it's what they remember.

208

But if I identify and say, it's not what you say, it's what they remember.

209

Doesn't land, right?

210

I can talk a certain way and then all of a sudden I can slow down and say, if there's one thing you remember, it's this.

211

It's not what you say, it's what they remember.

212

As opposed to, if there's one thing you remember it's not what you say it's what they remember just doesn't lie

213

so you have to have pauses if you overload people they can't hear you

214

because it's too much information for the brain to process

215

so you have volume you have enunciation you have pauses if you just do these three things

216

people are much more likely to listen to you but let me toss one more in there okay And that is variation.

217

Variation.

218

If I spoke like this from start to finish and you just knew exactly how I was going to speak, eventually you would tune out because your brain can predict what I'm about to do and the brain likes novelty.

219

Can you see how bored you are already?

220

The brain wants novelty.

221

It needs a reason to continuously pay attention.

222

Your brain is a prediction machine.

223

If the moment you can tell, I know what's going to happen, your brain tunes out and does something else.

224

So you need to get the listener unpredictability.

225

They don't know what's going to happen.

226

The way you do that with variation is you vary up your pace and you vary up your volume.

227

You vary up your emphasis.

228

So for example, my name is Yasser.

229

I am really excited to be here.

230

I'm talking loudly right but if I just talk like this the entire time

231

and a lot of motivational speakers do this They just talk loud loud loud the entire time you get bored of it.

232

It's a bit too much But if I talk like this, and I said my name is Yasir Khan.

233

I'm here to teach you public speaking again

234

There's not a lot of variety and if I talk like this actually

235

if I don't know you can't follow me because it's good if I Talk like this Then then it's too slow.

236

So fast is not good, slow is not good, loud and quiet is not good.

237

Variation is what we're looking for.

238

So for example, if I'm talking like this and all of a sudden

239

I can slow down and I can make a point

240

and then I'm going to tell you about how excited I am by going high up in volume

241

and when I really want you to listen, I can go down and I can start whispering

242

but notice how your brain doesn't really know what i'm about

243

to do this is variation now you don't need to do

244

it to the levels i was doing it depends on

245

if you're on stage if you're in a corporate meeting please in the meeting

246

if someone says hey what's the update on this project don't say well the update of this project is

247

that i got an email from the client

248

and they said we are not don't talk like this

249

so please context dependent you can have less variation

250

but still a variation why is this important you can say the best thing

251

but if people don't like the way you sound

252

if it is boring if their brain can predict where you're going how you're going to talk they will tune out

253

so have some variation and also so you sound like a more charismatic person

254

so sound like you have some some juice to you I see

255

so many speakers they try

256

so hard to be articulate they want to select the right words

257

and they just sound robotic they sound like an AI put

258

a you put a speaker in front of an AI has all the perfect words

259

but there's no personality that personality comes from variation

260

so the hub framework we talked about how people can hear

261

what you're saying let's talk about the body briefly I don't want to go too deep into this

262

but if you have all of these things you're doing

263

when you're speaking but your body is getting in the way

264

that will not help i have a matrix

265

that i teach my clients this is the only thing you need to understand about body language

266

and what to do with your body this is a matrix called the movement matrix.

267

On one side, you have control and uncontrolled.

268

On the other side, you have expressive and suppressive.

269

What do I mean?

270

All body language can be put into these four boxes.

271

So let's go A, B, C, D.

272

All right.

273

Control meaning, is my movement, does it look like I'm in control?

274

When people are nervous, what do they do?

275

Hey everyone, really excited to be here.

276

My presentation today is about, do I look like I'm in control?

277

No. But when you look at leaders, you will notice their movement is deliberate.

278

They're in control.

279

You don't have to move your hands just for the sake of moving your hands.

280

You can be here and that's totally fine too.

281

You don't have to make big gestures as long as you look like you're in control.

282

That's how leaders speak.

283

When you're in control, you're composed, you're comfortable.

284

Expressive or suppressive.

285

When you are speaking, notice with my hands.

286

I'm an expressive person now because I've practiced it for a very long time.

287

When I speak, my hands open up.

288

I'm describing things.

289

Move from here to there.

290

I don't have a vocabulary of gestures.

291

Do this when you say this word.

292

Do that when you do that word.

293

I don't have that.

294

But I think, okay, I'm talking about this thing.

295

How do I describe it?

296

That's how my mind works.

297

So I'm expressing myself with my body.

298

What is the opposite?

299

The body is suppressing.

300

You become smaller.

301

You start hiding.

302

People who are afraid of public speaking, the way they'll suppress themselves is they'll make their body smaller.

303

They'll hide their hands.

304

Hey, everyone, really excited.

305

And then their voice will also suppress because your body and your mouth, they're synchronized.

306

If you make your body small, it's very difficult to sound very excited.

307

But if you make your body big, is very easy to sound excited.

308

So are you expressing yourself or are you suppressing yourself?

309

A, B, C, D.

310

You want to be somewhere on this side because if you are uncontrolled and expressive, like, hey, everyone, I'm really excited to be here.

311

Today I'm going to talk about, you know, the purpose of communication.

312

I'm expressing a lot, but it's uncontrolled and it looks frantic.

313

frantic all over the place you communicate tension and anxiety to the other person

314

then if I am uncontrolled and suppressive uncontrolled

315

and suppressive it's just I can't I can't control myself just

316

completely frozen hey everyone really excited to be here today completely helpless

317

so this is frozen like Elsa

318

so this is where you want to be there's a purpose for each of them now controlled

319

and suppressive you might be wondering well why do I want to be suppressive

320

if you are in a business meeting

321

and you want to have a serious conversation it helps you to tone down So if someone says, hey, we want this to be 90 % cheaper.

322

Unfortunately, this is the final price.

323

I'm not expressing myself highly in control because that's what the situation requires.

324

If you're speaking seriously today, you are about to receive some bad news.

325

Controlled.

326

I don't need a high level of expressiveness here.

327

So if you want to display authority or assertiveness,

328

you can have a high degree of control and you can suppress your movement.

329

Lastly, and this is where I find myself 90 % of the time, this is controlled and expressive.

330

So you're both in control of your gestures, but you're also expressing yourself.

331

You're comfortable.

332

You don't feel like you have to just hold yourself down.

333

This one makes for the best public speakers in most cases, not all the time.

334

You can be highly controlled and you can have emotional stories that move people.

335

If you look at Steve Jobs' Stanford speech, he delivered it like this.

336

Completely controlled, read from a script, almost no tonal variation, and it's one of the best commencement speeches you will ever see.

337

So again, nothing is good

338

or bad remember it always comes back to purpose of communication maybe you were speaking frantically

339

and someone found you relatable and they bought your product you convinced them

340

and you changed their behavior that is effective communication so this is everything that you need to know

341

i call this ideal this is the most natural way of speaking the controlled

342

and suppressive version this can also become robotic and less relatable

343

when you're speaking very seriously and

344

when you don't have any tonal changes in the way you

345

speak people might think you're a bit reserved this one tends

346

to be more ideal this is what you can do with

347

your body to get people to hear what you're saying now

348

people have heard you they have paid attention to your body they can hear you

349

but what if it still doesn't change behavior what

350

if it still doesn't change behavior you can say all the right words the best vocabulary

351

but people don't buy your product they don't going to hire you.

352

The person you're asking out, they don't want to go out with you for whatever reason.

353

Has it worked?

354

No, it has not.

355

Something else that you, if you say all the words in a way that people can understand it,

356

that is a better determinant than you saying it for them to hear it.

357

So for example, if I'm describing a product to you and it's clear, my volume is very loud and I am speaking in a very enunciated way,

358

but you don't understand how the product works.

359

Am I effective at communicating?

360

No. So once you make sure they can hear you, the next step, the you in there, where did my black marker go?

361

Screw it.

362

The you is, oh, I'm holding it.

363

There we go.

364

The you is understand.

365

understand they hear you but now do they understand you they hear you

366

but now do they understand you we're getting deeper into our

367

communication i can't tell you how many founders i've worked with

368

they they're very charismatic speakers the moment they open their mouth

369

and they start describing the product to me i have no idea what they're talking about

370

and this is one of my it's my edge because

371

if I don't understand what they're saying neither does their audience

372

so we've talked about hearing let's move on to understanding can

373

the audience understand what you are saying can you simplify it

374

in a way for other people to understand it something I

375

don't like people say I want to dumb this down for the audience I want to dumb this down These people,

376

they don't understand it because they are not intelligent.

377

No, if they don't understand it, then you haven't done a good enough job of simplifying it.

378

So if you're, let's say you're someone who works in tech and you develop software,

379

you will explain that to another software engineer in a certain language.

380

You will explain it to your wife a certain way you'll explain it to your grandma a certain way

381

and you'll explain it to a 10 year old a certain way you have to have the ability to adapt

382

so how do you do this how do you simplify the first first concept concept of verbal

383

efficiency verbal efficiency what does this mean verbal efficiency means

384

and this is me explaining something

385

so you understand how can you say the same thing with

386

the fewest possible words how can you say the same thing

387

with the fewest possible words why is this important let's say this is the brain okay

388

if I am talking and you

389

and I have to give you I have to give you the update

390

that the timeline for the project has been pushed

391

if I say hey yeah

392

so I'm just touching base on the thing we talked about last time I know

393

that we had a certain deadline for the project

394

and I know you've been very excited about completing this on time

395

and you must have so much else going on in your day -to -day schedule

396

but unfortunately the vendor reached out to us and they said

397

that unfortunately they're not going to be able to do it

398

but it's okay you know I talked to them

399

and they said the deadline will be pushed to next Tuesday it shouldn't take any more than

400

that and they should be able to do it by then

401

and I'll let you know what they say after

402

that how many words did I take to communicate that

403

and look how much space in your brain I took to communicate

404

that message I'm not efficient with my communication I have to

405

say way too many words to get the point across

406

if I wanted to say the same thing I could have

407

said the client reached out to us the deadline has been pushed to the 12th

408

which is next Tuesday I'll keep up with them

409

or I'll check in with them to make sure it's delivered on time how much easier is

410

that to understand compared to blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

411

so remember this the more words you use to describe something

412

the more brain power it takes the other person to understand a lot of people think

413

if I want to be a good speaker I must say

414

more no you must say more with fewer words you must say more with fewer words

415

so I want you to audit your language when you speak

416

when you write an email start with the one sentence what

417

is my main point here what am I trying to do

418

so I was recently hiring a video editor and I asked them what is your expected salary?

419

Just give me a number.

420

Well, you know, there's a lot of things we can do together.

421

And typically in the past when I work, I'm done.

422

Just give me a number.

423

Well, you know, what does it tell me?

424

They're either afraid of saying it, or they don't know how to say something concisely.

425

The best editors that I've worked with, I'll say, what is your salary expectation?

426

I'm looking for something between this and this.

427

Direct answer doesn't take up all of this mental bandwidth.

428

So when you speak, be verbally efficient.

429

Number two, X is like Y.

430

X is like Y.

431

If you are explaining something that your audience might not understand,

432

let's say you're explaining how to learn public speaking.

433

If I said the first step in public speaking is to establish a baseline point.

434

Once we have a baseline point, we have to identify our 80 -20 opportunities.

435

Once we know our 80 -20 opportunities, we eliminate the 80 and we double down on the 20.

436

We're going to create a systematic lean focus plan for you to develop those skills, find your domino skills, and over time, make you a better speaker.

437

Did you understand anything I just said?

438

no idea right now you might think wow this yasup person

439

he he has all of these fancy words he must be smart

440

but you have no idea what i said am i going to change your behavior no

441

and worse i might even make you feel stupid because i'm using all this language that's going right over your head

442

let's get back into it X is like why take something

443

that the audience doesn't understand compare it to something they do understand X is like why

444

so in this example the public speaking example you had no idea what I just said

445

but if I said learning public speaking is a lot like learning to ride a bike first

446

when you try it it's intimidating

447

and you don't think you can ever do it you get on

448

and you keep falling off you get on

449

and you keep falling off you feel a shame you feel embarrassed you don't know what to do

450

but eventually when you know where to place your feet

451

when you know how to sit over time you start riding

452

the bike for five seconds for 10 seconds for 15 seconds

453

and eventually your body learns how to balance

454

and then you can learn to ride a bike

455

and a few weeks later you completely forgot about all the

456

things you were concerned about now you can just get on the bike without even thinking about it

457

and you can do it naturally.

458

Public speaking works the exact same way.

459

First it will be hard you think you can't do it

460

but over time your body is going to get used to all of these new techniques to your learning, and when you have enough repetition,

461

enough practice, you'll completely forget that this was something you struggled with.

462

X is like Y.

463

Did this help your understanding?

464

X is like Y.

465

Take something they do understand and connect it to something they don't understand.

466

Jeff Bezos had a TEDx talk where he compared the the internet boom to electricity.

467

I think the TEDx talk might even be titled the electricity metaphor.

468

He uses metaphors and analogies all the time.

469

It's one of my favorite ways to help people understand.

470

So be verbally efficient.

471

Don't use too many words to say the same thing.

472

X is like Y.

473

Number three, roadmap.

474

What do I mean by roadmap?

475

do you know where you're going when you speak because

476

if you don't know where you're going your audience certainly does not want know where you're going

477

so imagine if someone came to your your apartment

478

or you ordered a cab he got in the cab

479

and the cab driver and this has happened to me many times actually

480

when I visit a new city they're just spinning in circles you're you're going back in the same intersections over

481

and over again, eventually you'll start to get nervous.

482

Does this driver know where we're going?

483

Do they have any clue?

484

You won't understand their behavior pattern and you probably won't trust them.

485

So you must have a roadmap of where you're going.

486

Because if you start speaking and you're taking the audience on a journey and they have no idea where you're taking it, they're not going to feel comfortable giving you their time,

487

giving you their attention so do you have a roadmap

488

when you speak do you know where you're going when you speak so how do you do that

489

one one one this is an easy way first you start with your one main takeaway okay

490

so for example

491

if i asked yasser i want to grow i want to

492

grow my social media following what's the number one thing i

493

should do the one main thing you should do is post

494

consistently that's the one main idea now I know where I

495

am going now I know what I'm going to talk about

496

if I said oh yeah post consistently

497

and you know find the best editing software look at the you know the competitors

498

and yeah you know you just got to be in it

499

for the love of it now I'm going all over the

500

place you have no idea where I'm taking you of all

501

the things you can do the one thing I would recommend is consistency.

502

I would rather you make 30 bad videos, one video a day, than try to make one perfect video

503

because right now you don't know what that one perfect video even looks like because you've never done it before.

504

So pick up the phone every single day for 30 seconds, say something into your phone and upload it.

505

That is the detail that I'm providing.

506

First the takeaway, then the one piece of detail, and at the end, take away again.

507

Why?

508

Why would I repeat myself?

509

Shouldn't you not repeat yourself?

510

You're going in circles.

511

If your answer is short, then yes, you can stop here.

512

You can say, I would recommend you make videos consistently every single day.

513

Pick up your phone, record it for 30 seconds, and upload it.

514

That's all I want to do.

515

Concise communication.

516

But if I'm speaking for longer, if I've spoken for about a minute, people remember what they hear last.

517

People remember what they hear last.

518

If you've given them a lot of details, they might forget the main message.

519

So that's why at the end, you say the most important thing again.

520

So that's my main advice. Be consistent.

521

One, one, one.

522

When you give them an answer, they now know okay i know what the answer is i know where he

523

or she is taking me i'm along for the ride

524

and then they'll follow along with it to change people behavior they must hear you

525

and they must understand you three of the ways

526

that you can make people understand you one be verbally efficient

527

don't use too many words to explain the same exact thing x is like y compare

528

or something they understand to something they don't understand to bridge the gap

529

and number three a roadmap know where you are going before you open your mouth a lot of people they think

530

if i just talk eventually i will know what i'm talking

531

about maybe think about what you're about to say now we're

532

going to get into the third element we've learned to make

533

people hear what we're saying understand what we're saying there's one more important element and

534

that is this the B in hub is believe believe they hear you they understand you

535

but do they believe you they hear you they understand you

536

do they believe you can you see how unless we pass

537

our communication from this filter it doesn't it's not effective at

538

changing behavior you can learn the best words you can learn

539

the best analogies you can speak as concisely as possible but

540

if you still don't change the way people do things

541

or think about things have you been an effective communicator the answer is no

542

so all of our tips will always come back to this, changing behavior.

543

And in order for you to change behavior, you must get people to believe you.

544

Now, I'm going to share something that is a little controversial, but that's what I do and that's okay.

545

And that is, when you are too polished, I have made this mistake many times, like more times than I can count.

546

When you sound too polished, which means you don't have any ums and uhs,

547

all of your gestures are pre -choreographed,

548

every single word is memorized.

549

if i get on stage

550

and i say every single word perfectly as i memorized it

551

what's going to happen in the mind of the audience is

552

they will think i am performing they will think this is

553

not who i actually am i am trying to be a

554

different version of myself who i am not i'm trying to be this polished, perfect speaker.

555

because I'm insecure about being myself and

556

when you see someone who's appearing as someone other than who

557

they are what does it do immediately breaks trust immediately breaks trust

558

and I used to do this as a public speaking coach

559

I still see a lot of public speaking coaches do this where they they speak in overly poetic language

560

or they use vocabulary that they would never use in a day -to -day conversation

561

or they try to come up with ways to describe things that just sound

562

unnatural it doesn't sound like something a human being would ever say

563

or they chat gpt their script

564

and they read it on youtube immediately you know even

565

if this person is good at this thing

566

because they're reading off of a teleprompter

567

because they memorized every single gesture this is not who they are i don't think i can trust them

568

so you can have the best vocal variation you can have all of this stuff

569

that helps people understand but if your sixth sense kicks in

570

and says this person far too polished a little too perfect

571

i don't think they're real i will discard this information this is why instead of being perfect it's important to be

572

present if you are present in the moment with the audience

573

and you have flaws in your speech you can say um

574

or uh most leaders do it you can speak really fast for a

575

while you can speak really slowly for a while

576

if you sound like a human being

577

if you take time to think about what you're about to

578

say you sound real you don't sound ultra polished people will believe you

579

so in a very real way you can be a less a less polished speaker not the best public speaker

580

but you can be a better communicator because people believe you're real and they're more likely to change their behavior here.

581

Can you see the difference here?

582

Being a better speaker is not about sounding amazing all the time.

583

Using the best word is about getting people to do something, whether it's someone in a business meeting,

584

whether it's someone that you're trying to convince to drop a bad habit.

585

All communication comes down to this.

586

So instead of being perfect, be present.

587

Yes, rehearse your presentation, but don't memorize every single word.

588

Say the words out loud enough times where now you can say it like in a conversation

589

if you're saying your abcs you don't need the abcs in front of you right you've said it

590

so many times

591

and it just comes to you naturally that's how you rehearse

592

for your presentation that's number one believe number two proof proof i can say

593

that i'm the best public speaking coach in the world that i can help you transform in 10 days or less, which, by the way, is my specialty.

594

That is what we're the best in the world at doing.

595

But I can say it.

596

And if I don't have any proof, why will you believe me?

597

Why will you believe me?

598

So how do you communicate proof?

599

You do that through storytelling.

600

Storytelling.

601

So when I was hiring, I used to work as a recruiter in a past life, which means people would apply for a job.

602

I was the one looking at the resume.

603

I would go through all of the applications and submit it to the hiring manager.

604

If we had a software that we recommended people, if we wanted that software expertise in that software,

605

we would ask them, do you have any experience with blank software?

606

So for example, if we're using a video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro, if I ask, do you have experience working with Adobe Premiere Pro?

607

Some people might say, yes, I had the best experience with Adobe Premiere Pro.

608

Okay, the next person will say the same thing.

609

The next person will say the same thing because they're all trying to get the job.

610

So how do I know if not only you have experience, but you have the best experience?

611

This is where stories come in because you can give me proof from the past of it actually happening.

612

yes I remember

613

when I was working with this client all of their video files were stored on their Adobe Premiere Pro project

614

which is a software for video editing

615

so I went in there I did XYZ I made this

616

kind of video I brought in another team at an ABC

617

and now they're in this position you've told me a story you've given me real proof and now I believe you

618

Because you have proof.

619

So again, I can say all the right words, but if I don't have proof of it, I don't know if it's going to work.

620

So for example, whenever I am helping new students understand they can change,

621

they have a few existing beliefs in their mind that I need to change.

622

And that is, I'm stuck as who I am.

623

I'm stuck as who I am.

624

I'm an introvert.

625

and this will take too long okay I'm stuck as an introvert

626

and this will take too long if I say actually don't worry even

627

if you're an introvert you can make a lot of progress

628

and it's not gonna take too long in ten days

629

or less you can see a difference okay maybe it's helpful maybe

630

if I'm a person of authority

631

if I have a large following like I do you might believe me but what reason do you have?

632

Is there any proof?

633

But what if I say something like, I completely understand where you're coming from.

634

In fact, I felt like this my entire life.

635

I felt like I was an introvert.

636

I couldn't even talk to people because I was thinking, what do I do with my hands?

637

Where do I look?

638

What am I supposed to say?

639

I would get so in my head that I would just stop going out.

640

And it was this vicious cycle.

641

I would go out and I would feel embarrassed by my social performance

642

so I would just go home and I would go home and I'd be embarrassed that I had to leave.

643

And if I didn't go to the event, then I would regret not going.

644

And it was this vicious cycle of anxiety.

645

Do you feel the same way?

646

At this point, a lot of my students say, yeah, that's exactly what I'm going through.

647

So now there's relatability.

648

I've told you a little bit about myself.

649

Then I can say, you know what made the biggest change for me?

650

I used to believe.

651

Remember, I'm on their level.

652

I'm telling them I believe the same thing they believe.

653

Until I started practicing every single day using this technique.

654

And I was shocked that in just a week, I made this much progress.

655

In fact, I was in disbelief.

656

But then I won my first public speaking contest.

657

People started calling me up and saying, can you speak at this conference?

658

And now 10 years later, I'm the number one most followed CEO speech coach in the world.

659

So I understand if I was in your position, I wouldn't believe me either.

660

But now, not only through my journey, but having coached more than 50 ,000 leaders, I've seen it time and time again where I see people who think they're introverted,

661

but what they haven't done is just practice on a consistent basis.

662

Are you open to trying?

663

Can you see the difference of that as opposed to, actually, it'll work for you.

664

It won't take too long.

665

I'm giving you real proof, a short story to help you go from this belief to

666

that belief that will then change your behavior change your behavior number one

667

if you want them to believe you too polished don't be

668

too polished number two give them some proof number three this is a little counterintuitive three admit

669

limitations.

670

Admit limitations.

671

If you speak and you tell people that you are the best at what you do, we're the best, we've never had a bad client, every single speech I've ever done has been the best speech I've ever given,

672

I've always been the most confident person I've ever known, that's why you should listen to me.

673

It might sound great but you can't really relate to me in any way and it also sounds unbelievable.

674

How is that possible?

675

But when you admit to your limitation, this is telling people, calling out your flaws, people will relate to you more.

676

People will relate to you more.

677

So for example, in a lot of my talks, when I'm speaking to a corporation, I don't want them to feel like, who is this guy?

678

I've never seen him before.

679

Why should I listen to what he has to say and change the way I speak.

680

That's the default mindset they have when I walk into the room.

681

So I have to change that behavior.

682

And I'll walk in and I'll say, hey, I know this is a cybersecurity firm.

683

I'll be the first one to tell you I know nothing about cybersecurity.

684

I don't even remember my own password.

685

That'll get a chuckle.

686

And I will tell them, I know nothing about your industry.

687

But there's one thing I do know is that the way you speak determines how people treat you.

688

And I'll go into a story about that.

689

So because I have admitted limitations, I built more proof.

690

And then I doubled down on it.

691

I'll tell them later on, hey, I once delivered a presentation.

692

It was an hour -long presentation.

693

I made sure I had the best words so people could hear me.

694

I had all types of analogies.

695

And by the end, I got a round of applause.

696

But no one changed their behavior.

697

No one implemented any of the techniques that I talked about.

698

What's the problem?

699

It took me years to realize

700

that I had to also get them to believe what I was saying enough to implement it.

701

Because they have one belief, and I'm trying to get them to replace that belief with a new belief.

702

So you admit your limitations to build trust.

703

I'll give you one more example.

704

I was once at a shoe store.

705

Shoe shop, shoe store, shoe store.

706

I was going to buy a pair of shoes

707

and I normally go I just find whichever shoe has the thickest padding

708

and usually it's also the most expensive one they have so it was the Nike Adidas Boost

709

Nike Adidas Ultra Boost

710

and I was going to buy it the person at the store asked me what do you need this for

711

and I said oh I just needed to walk around the house he said I wouldn't recommend this.

712

This is a little too expensive for what you need.

713

It's overkill.

714

There's a shoe that's much more affordable, that's much better for what your needs.

715

And that shoe was half the price.

716

I ended up buying that one based on his recommendation because he had admitted limitations.

717

Even though I was going to pay more money, buy a more expensive product, I'm sure he would have gotten a bigger commission check because he told me,

718

hey, even though this is in my best interest, I don't think you should get this.

719

You should get this instead.

720

What does it do in my mind?

721

This person is honest.

722

They will admit to their limitations.

723

They will tell me when they're wrong.

724

I can't trust their recommendations in the future.

725

So if you are delivering a presentation, if you're speaking in a meeting, don't try to be an expert on everything.

726

Don't try to give advice on things you're not good at.

727

Don't try to be perfect.

728

Show your flaws.

729

People can relate to that.

730

Vulnerability is how we connect with each other.

731

That's one way that you can get people to believe you.

732

And lastly, synchronized.

733

What do I mean by synchronized?

734

We're getting back into speaking techniques here, but you can say all the right words,

735

but does your body and does do your words do this synchronize together

736

so I'll give you an example okay let's say

737

that I am the CEO of a company

738

and I'm trying to give you some updates on how the company is doing all right I showed up

739

and I said hey everyone welcome uh yeah

740

so you know the company is doing uh really well

741

and um yeah you know we're hoping for a lot of growth over the next few years uh

742

and yeah we've got a lot of, you know, exciting products that we're going to share soon.

743

So thank you for being here.

744

Do you believe what I'm saying?

745

I'm willing to bet you're a little suspicious.

746

Why?

747

Because my words and my behavior, my body, my spoken word, they did not synchronize, did it not match.

748

I didn't sound like someone who sounded confident.

749

I didn't sound like I believe what I was saying.

750

So if you don't believe what you're saying, the other person will not believe it.

751

Remember this, belief is contagious and it is contagious through emotion.

752

How do you speak about something?

753

If I say, hey, I'm really excited to be here.

754

Does it sound like I'm excited? but if I say, I'm really excited to be here,

755

same words, different emotion, you're going to believe me based on one of them and not the other one.

756

So when you're speaking, you can say the right words, but is it synchronized?

757

Does your body and your language and your spoken word, does it synchronize together?

758

That will show people they can trust you because a lot of people, They'll listen to you and something in their mind, their intuition will tell them, I don't know if I can believe this person.

759

Everyone in the world is not a body language expert, right?

760

But they've seen enough, subconsciously their brain has made a decision, I don't know what it is, but I don't trust this person.

761

I can't describe it, but I can't trust it.

762

Chances are something to do with lack of synchronization.

763

What you're saying

764

and what you're doing does not match as opposed to thank

765

you for being here we're really excited the company is doing

766

so well in the next year we're projecting 3x the revenue

767

and we have five exciting products that are about to launch

768

so I'm genuinely from the bottom of my heart excited

769

that you were here as opposed to thank you for being

770

here we're really excited about the next few years of our company

771

and all the exciting products that we're about to launch One of them you believe, the other one you don't.

772

Let's do a quick recap.

773
