Absolutely. Let me introduce the method. It really divides into M&M, my favorite candies. It's about mindset and messaging. The first four steps are all about mindset. When it comes to communication in general, but specifically spontaneous speaking, anxiety looms large. We started by talking about that. Most people are nervous. Most people are really nervous in spontaneous situations.

So step number one is learning to manage that anxiety. Once we've managed that anxiety, the next thing we have to do is we need to do exactly what we talked about, not get in that mindset of I have to be perfect. So we have to focus our efforts on just getting the idea across. It's about connection, not perfection. Third, we have to see these situations as opportunities, not threats.

Many of us see speaking in front of others as a threat, and we have to reframe that as an opportunity that can really help us to be successful. And then the final step of mindset has to do with listening. And many people are like, what? Listening is important? You're talking about speaking? No, you have to listen. You have to be able to focus on what is needed in the moment. It is critical.

So we start with anxiety. We move to how we focus on connection, not perfection. It's about opportunities, not threats. And then it's about listening. Then we transition to messaging. The final two steps are about messaging. When we communicate, we must leverage structure. Many of us just take the audience on our journey of our discovery of what we wanna say as we're saying it.

In other words, we ramble, we list, we itemize. It's very hard for others to remember lists of information. And then the final step is we have to be concise and clear. Many of us say much more than we need to say. My mother has this wonderful saying, tell the time, don't build the clock. Many of us when we speak say more than we need to. So the last two steps are about structure and being concise.
