People ask me all the time, TJ it seems like you hate teleprompters. What's your problem with teleprompters? I know hate teleprompters. I think teleprompters can be great. I use teleprompters from time to time. What bothers me though, is that so many people misuse teleprompters.

They think, oh, now it's going to be easy. I don't have to practice. I don't have to rehearse. I can just read this stuff in the end up with Hello, my name is Anand de ma. They look like robots. They look scared, nervous, uncomfortable.

And no one can pay attention to what they're saying because it's so awful and cringe worthy of how they're trying to talk and trying to read. So my problem with teleprompters is that people abuse them, and they think it's about them helping the speaker or the presenter come across more effectively, easily and having to do less work. It's not for the speaker. It's for the audience. You will Want to use the teleprompter, so you can come across as genuine to them. So if you're making your own videos from your home studio or office, and you're doing this to get everywhere, just stop it, actually look at your own stuff.

You'll be appalled at how it is. If you're giving a speech at a political convention, and there are TV reporters around capturing it, you got to look how's it going to come across to voters at home, you're not going to come across as a genuine, confident person. Unless you really take the time to rehearse. People want to use it as a shortcut. It's actually a long time. It takes more time to be good at it.

If you practice the way you should with a teleprompter. There's a whole section on teleprompter. In the course, I'm not going to go through it here. But that's the big picture.
