I firmly say to every one of my students, every story has a point and every point has a story.

Yeah.

People think because they can just talk.

Now, here's a funny thing.

I give speeches all over the world.

My formula applies to speech giving as well.

Because before I'm ready to go, I know what the speech is, I know what I want to be talking about, we agreed on the topic, but here's a phenomenon.

Who am I talking to?

When I walk into an arena, and I usually show up the night before, I want to know, is it men or women or young or old or successful or not?

All of those indicators, I'm going to go back and reframe my entire speech based on what I think that audience wants to hear.

Yeah.

Not always what I want to talk about.

Isn't it funny how pitching now also became storytelling and speech giving?

But I think it's the same thing.

I think when you learn this formula, I think life gets more fun.

You're not guessing as much.

Okay, so it goes back to the whole bragging thing.

Give me a sponsor, a name of a sponsor, kind of a sponsor.

Shopify, Indeed, LinkedIn.

Okay, so Shopify.
