Chapters
How can you improve your public speaking by listening to this relatively new autobiography? Now, I'll tell you what this book is in a second, but when we listen to autobiographies, if we can, we have to listen to the author reading it, as many very successful people that write autobiographies are amazing speakers too. And Maya Angelou once said that people might not remember what you said, but they'll never forget the way you made them feel. Now, the book that I'm about to tell you about is very self deprecating and it's read by the best public speaker alive today. And so without further ado, my bipartisan recommended book of the month to listen to in order to improve your ability to speak. Gooder is and you'll definitely recognize his voice when I say this. Alexa, read me my audiobook.

People might not remember what you said, but they'll never forget the way he made them feel.
