So how do you remember what to say when you're giving a speech? Because you don't want to look like you're reading and staring at a PowerPoint? What do you do? Well, here's my solution for you don't remember anything, have a cheat sheet. Now, this is ethical cheating, my friends, but have a cheat sheet just for you. The beauty of this sheet is a single sheet of paper, large font.

This is what I use when I'm getting an hour long speech on how to speak to the media. And I have two or three of these around the room. I never have to pick them up. I never touch them because it's large font, I don't have to bend over to look at it or put on my glasses. I can just be walking by and glance at it that way. I don't have to remember anything other than the general stuff.

I say when I see that particular bullet point. And I can talk about it in a non word for word memorized way, I can just have a conversation about that point. So don't put pressure on yourself. To remember anything for a speech instead, just use notes but keep it to a single sheet. If it takes more than a single sheet of paper for you to put your notes that by definition proves you have not done a good enough job of narrowing down the number of points you're trying to convey in this speech.
