Now I want to share with you a really advanced tip and I say advanced, anybody can do it a five year old child could do this. And yet very few speakers ever do. Mount by now you should have on a single sheet of paper, ideally a half sheet, your notes for your entire speech, your five main ideas or fewer, a few facts number you need for each one and a word or two to remind you of the story. The example you want to tell. Cut it out so that it's not even using a full sheet of paper. It can now sit down on the table in front of you on the lectern if you want.

Now, here's the advanced technique. This probably cost you two cents for a piece of paper. Make two or three more copies. Now I want you to walk around the room where you're going to give the speech before anyone else shows up and Place your script strategically in different places. So, for example, some classrooms might have a long, narrow table 30 feet long in front of the teacher or the speaking place. Put one on one end one on another.

You could have some ad table and the whole back of the room where there's a TV, you could put one there, put these strategically around the room, guess what that lets you do. You can be looking at the script one minute telling you what to say. You're going to go into your store and now you can walk around the room you can walk 10 feet over the other part of the room. glance down and now you see your next place well, this is going to blow people away because they are used to seeing for the most part, only professional speakers moving around the room moving around the stage using the whole of the space area because my goodness, everybody out Just too nervous. They've got to stay right there where their script is and stay behind the lectern. Can't go away someone might hit me is kind of the attitude most speakers have.

That's what makes them seem timid, scared, nervous. But you're simply walking around. And when you're walking, people can see your hands. You're completely exposed. Now you're wearing clothes, but you're completely exposed to them. Therefore, you come across as supreme Li confident and relaxed.

There's a part of the audience thinking, wow, I could never do that. Here he is, or he or she is in front of hundreds, or even 12 people. And he's just walking around. She's just walking around and talking to us with confidence. Now, not everyone is thinking about it, the intellectual level that in those terms, but in their gut level, they're forming impressions of you, as someone who's surprisingly confident, who's just talking talking to them. Therefore, you're more believable.

You're the real expert. You know this, you're just talking to them. The reality is you have no idea. Maybe like I am, you have no, I have no idea what's next in my speech anytime. But I'm completely relaxed. Because I have my roadmap here.

There, there. And there. Now, I've demonstrated this 1000 times to audiences all over the world. And they're always, oh, my God, we're blown away, I had no idea you had various scripts, and because they didn't notice the scripts, it's not what they are expecting. And that's the beauty of this. When you walk around more, gives you time to reflect, pause, it slows down the speech too.

And when you walk a little, you can be glancing down and that's a good time to see what's next on the script. So this is a very, very special simple technique anyone could do it. Now, if you are giving a speech at a large convention, for example, and you on an elevated stage a platform, what you can do is write out your notes in large poster board. I've seen Joan Rivers, the deceased comedian do that. And when it's elevated, no one can see it. So it just looks like you're being reflective for a moment, looking down as you walk and your notes are on the floor.

I've done this before, too. It's quite effective. And again, you have all your notes in four or five different sections of the stage. Nobody will know it will be our little secret. So this technique when you combine what I did earlier, and if you've got your script, this is profoundly powerful. So now I got to start practicing.

And I'm going to show you how to do that in just a moment. But your task right now No, copy out. four copies of your script. You had one. Now I want four.
