Are you seduced by hacks and shortcuts in life?

You wouldn’t be alone. I hear the question all the time … ‘What’s your number 1 tip to improve my public speaking?’

So is there a quick fix to instantly improve your presentations?

Honestly? Not really.

There’s no elevator. You have to take the stairs, one step at a time. You need feedback and practise. Practise and feedback.

But here’s the thing. There is one tip which is the closest you’ll get to a hack.

It’s simple. Insightful. Impactful.

It’s this.

Grab your smartphone.
Point it at yourself.
Hit record.

I know, I know. Videoing yourself practising a presentation might sound excruciatingly embarrassing. And weird.

But you can obviously do it in total privacy, and delete it immediately afterwards.

Record. Watch. Review. You’ll be amazed what you learn about your style, content and message.

The first time I watched myself I discovered a fun fact - I tug my jacket sleeves. A nervous habit I never knew I had. And it’s distracting for audiences.

One quick recording. One powerful improvement. All in just a few minutes.

Every time you record yourself, you grow. Doing it once is powerful. Do it often, and the progress is next level.

Like I said at the start, public speaking takes work - there’s no way around that.

But if there’s one high-impact habit? Hit record. Watch. Improve. Level up.
