Hey there, YouTube. Myron golden here. I want to talk to you about this subject. Articulate to elevate. One of my favorite people to watch on YouTube is Jordan Peterson, and he had a video called how to Be More Articulate. He said something, and I never even thought about it before, but I'm like, that is so true. He said, if you want to be a better communicator. He said, no, 10 times more about your topic than you have time to talk about. I was like, oh, my goodness, that's so good. My brother Jeff always says, you can't draw water from an empty well. And I believe one of the biggest problems we have in the influencer space, in the guru space, in the coach space, is there are too many people out there tending to know stuff that they don't know. And what they'll do is they'll. They'll repeat something they heard somebody else say, and then they'll run out of material because they didn't really have any depth anyway. Like, literally, go dig your wells deep. Grow your roots deep. Learn more than you have time to teach. It'll take your life to another level. Know more about your subject than you have time to articulate. You will articulate to elevate.
