[19:13] – The danger of doing “presentations”… and what you should do instead.
- In back of his latest book Vocal Leadership: 7 minutes to communication mastery there is a glossary
- The word presentation means to introduce formally, or to bring before the public.
- The word performance literally means to carry out, fulfill.
- We think we are making “a presentation”, when in fact every public event you are presenting at, in front of the people, communicating with them is a performance because someone is watching or listening.
- In vocal awareness, in order to own our power, you have to have a lot of confidence.
- To be audacious, we first have to believe in our own possibility.
- Set up your video camera at home and practice!
- You don’t have to memorize your presentation, but you have to embody it with conscious awareness.

- Don’t be the cork in your own bottle.
- Don’t let anybody deter you from what it is you feel you’re called to do.
- We are all here to make a difference, and by blocking it the world will not have it.
- You must do in order to fulfill what it is you want to achieve.
