TJ WALKER - THE HABIT INFLUENCER - Personal Development | LIVE STREAM

So how do you master the art of impromptu speaking? For starters, just tell yourself to forget about this concept of impromptu speaking. Instead, you've got to really look at it from a different perspective. And that is, you're comfortable, confident, relaxed. And whether your best friend is sitting right next to you and you're having a beer, glass of wine, or your beverage of choice and you're chit chatting or you're standing talking to 10,000 people, you're going to be the same. You're going to think and talk in real time. That's really all there is to do with impromptu speaking. What gets people keyed up is they're thinking, oh, I'm out of my comfort zone. I'm used to speaking to five people sitting. Now I'm speaking to 10 people standing. Everyone's looking at me, oh my gosh, what do I do? What do I say? Let me think about what's on the bullet points in my brain. It's very hard to come across natural or relaxed that way. The key is just to act as though you're answering one person's question. Even if there's no one asking you questions, you can ask yourself the question. And to be conversational, the ultimate way of getting better at this is do it more. Anytime you can give a toast at a party, a wedding, do so. Anytime you can ask a question in a public forum, do it. These are all impromptu presentations of sorts. The more you're walking across the park, you see a TV camera walk up to the reporter and say, hey, what's the story for the day? Chances are they'll interview you. If you constantly look for different ways of speaking to larger audiences, you'll find them every day. And then your impromptu speaking will be like any other speaking, natural, easy, and fun.
