How do you plan an ad lib? You can just do it like that, stop, pause, look up for a minute. You know where you want to go. But you're just pausing a little, and it will make what you say sound spontaneous. The big problem so many speakers have is they're just going through facts going through data. Maybe they're reading right off of a PowerPoint deck, but maybe they are just speaking looking at people.

But it's all rushed. It all sounds like I'm now I'm going to tell you what I thought about saying five seconds ago and I'm going through this teleprompter in my brain.
