The '10x Rule' will 10x Your Speech
Read time: 60 seconds
Want one quick strategy to become 10 times more confident when you present?
It’s called my ‘10x Speech’ Rule.
Here’s how it works:
One of the attendees of a recent talk I gave had an upcoming speech at their daughter’s wedding!
They were obviously nervous about it.
This is what they messaged me after:
The rule is so simple, so intuitive, yet most of us never use it.
This is my 10x Speech Rule: Aim to say the speech out loud 10 times start to finish before you deliver it on stage when it really counts.
That’s it.
Just get the words out.
This doesn’t mean reading your notes or your slides in your head.
This means saying the words with your mouth and hearing yourself speak.
Why does this work so well?
1- You internalize the words and know how they sound. This builds familiarity with the material.
2- Helps you eliminate words that are hard to pronounce and sentences that don’t quite ‘flow’ correctly.
3- Makes you a LOT more confident because you now have PROOF that you can deliver the material in rehearsal, so you’ll be a lot more comfortable delivering it on stage.
P.S: Whenever you’re ready,
