The single most important part of my preparation.

It’s actually much harder than giving a longer presentation.

The trick is displacement.

Presentations and speeches can sometimes go badly. Really badly.

You don’t have time to meditate, you barely have time for a toilet break.

If people don’t like you, they won’t listen to you.

Empty mug, empty head.

Preparation and delivery.

It’s a balance.

You can live without them.

But only if you absolutely have to.

One simple thing could’ve saved the day.

It does you no favours.

Nobody wants a drill. They want a hole.

Stand-up is public speaking on expert difficulty.

Ignore it and the elephant always wins.

Make it your new mantra.

Why ‘Just be confident’ is terrible advice.

The best way to gain rapport.

Start strong.
