I got a lot of comments about the two videos I posted last week suggesting that I have nailed the art of public speaking.
I don’t know about that, I am my harshest critic.
But I do believe that writing regularly makes it so much easier to speak publicly in unscripted situations.
Writing forces you to work out your views and articulate them clearly and concisely.
Then when you are asked a question related to those views, you have already worked out the answer.
It is in the brain, waiting there to come out crisply and concisely.
I’ve been writing daily for going on fourteen years so that is a huge body of work, opinion, thought, and insight to be able to pull from.
My views have evolved over the years and so not all of that content is relevant at this point, but most of it is.
So if you have to speak publicly a lot, particularly in unscripted situations, I would suggest you write publicly regularly as well.
They work incredibly well together.
