00:00How to overcome common mistakes?
00:07In this section we will talk about how to overcome common mistakes.
00:13One of the most important aspects, which I have observed that many people,
00:20Or that many of us make mistakes with, is with body language.
00:25It is not enough to pronounce the words well, it is not enough to structure it, it is not enough to put the intention you have for the message.
00:37Body language is also very important.
00:41Your body speaks.
00:44First and foremost, you have to be careful with your posture.
00:48And remember that all these points must be aligned with the intention of your speech.
00:56Whether it's going to be a speech to inform, a speech to persuade, to inspire, or to entertain,
01:06These aspects will probably change.
01:09Your posture should generally be firm, but also relaxed.
01:15Don't look too tense, but don't look too relaxed either.
01:21If you start to look like this and you happen to be here, for example, in class,
01:26Although, well, again, these days almost everything is done via videoconference.
01:31But if you're in a class and presenting a topic, don't wander around.
01:37because that can simply distract the audience.
01:41If you look very stiff, you may also come across as a nervous person.
01:48So, try to put yourself here in one place.
01:52If you can express yourself, you can use your language,
01:55You can move, but only if you had planned to do so.
02:02If that movement dictates an intention, if that movement will add value to your speech,
02:11Don't move just for the sake of moving.
02:14Don't put your hands in the bag either; avoid doing this.
02:19It's a very common thing that I've observed.
02:22Your hands are very important and you have to use them.
02:27Another very common mistake with the hands is that they are in this position.
02:32So, I'm talking and I spend all my time like this.
02:35And it's a somewhat defensive stance, isn't it?
02:40It's like being like this.
02:43And it's natural, because who isn't afraid to be here?
02:47Who isn't nervous about being here?
02:50So, the bad thing is that by having this posture, those nerves are noticeable.
02:57And besides, it can be distracting, because suddenly I have my hands here
03:02And I start closing them, and I start as if I were washing them,
03:08And then, I either leave her here like she's a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
03:11So, what's the recommendation?
03:14The recommendation is to relax and leave your hands at your sides.
03:20To the sides until they are used by all of you.
03:25For example, when you want to say,
03:28Let's leave behind all the negativity and all the bad things from the past.
03:33And let's focus on these beautiful people who are listening to us.
03:39All of that must have an intention.
03:42But if you stop using your hands, or plan not to use them,
03:47If that's your decision, leave them relaxed at the sides.
03:52That's the recommendation.
03:55Another very important aspect that I also observe, which is a common mistake,
04:00It is not using appropriate gestures.
04:08We're very often like this, as if we're delivering a message,
04:12And we're all tense, and sometimes I move around, and I'm not conveying anything.
04:17And no, the ideal is to transmit.
04:20You can also convey your feelings,
04:23How are you feeling right now? What is your intention?
04:26And for that, we need to make an effort to consciously
04:31be making a gesture that allows you to communicate it,
04:38that allows it to be transmitted,
04:40that allows you to see if the person speaking is enthusiastic
04:46either bored, or she's really not interested in the topic.
04:50And so he's here because they put him on a topic.
04:54No, use your gestures.
04:57We know very well that having something to say is not the same thing,
05:01why do I have to say something?
05:03But we have to gesture in order to convey it in the best way.
05:08Another equally important aspect is what we call eye contact.
05:17That eye contact so they see we're connected,
05:23so they can see that we are involved,
05:26so that your audience engages with you.
05:28In this case, my eye contact is with the camera and with Miguel,
05:33who is helping me,
05:35But when there is a group of people
05:37which we hope will soon be possible in person,
05:42Then I'm going to focus my gaze
05:45with everyone present.
05:49If it's a small group, if it's a group of 10 to 20 people,
05:52I can talk to this person here for two or three seconds.
05:58And then I turn to look at this other person
06:01and then I'll continue with the person who's back there.
06:05Two or three seconds.
06:07It can't be constantly because then I'll look like a chick.
06:11Nor can it be so separate
06:14Because if I focus too much on one person,
06:16Well, I'm going to say, well, I already know what he's got with me, right?
06:19Because he keeps staring at me and nothing else.
06:21if there are many other people.
06:22The goal, once again, is to connect with the audience.
06:27When you do this,
06:29The audience will feel connected to you
06:32and at the same time,
06:34If you urgently need to return to the devices,
06:38to your tablet or whatever,
06:40He's not going to do it because, well,
06:41Hey, what if he sees me and maybe scolds me?
06:44So this is a very effective way
06:48to have people's attention.
06:52If it's an auditorium with 100 or more people,
06:57Then you won't be with each and every one of them either.
07:00The recommendation there is to do it in blocks.
07:05It might take a few seconds with the row in front.
07:08and then a few seconds with the back row
07:12and then a few more seconds with the row on this side
07:15or with the section on this side
07:17And that way everyone will feel identified with your speech.
07:22You also need to take care of vocal variety.
07:28Vocal variety is how you are handling aspects of your voice.
07:37So, what if I talk and talk and talk until I run out of breath?
07:46So, in the end I'll hardly be able to talk anymore
07:50And then it's going to be difficult for me.
07:52No, breathing is an important part of vocal variety
07:56And along with that come the pauses.
08:00You can plan pauses to make a better impact
08:05or to create suspense in your speech.
08:08And in those pauses you take the opportunity to breathe.
08:14For example, if I tell them
08:16the key to success will always be
08:21put your faith in God.
08:25I paused briefly
08:26so that everyone can say
08:28What will be the key to success?
08:31That's a small example.
08:33But there are many other occasions.
08:35Volume is also very important.
08:40How many of us haven't had a teacher?
08:43Can't we hear anything?
08:45Then he's talking and suddenly
08:48And worse still, eye contact is lost.
08:50and turns the blackboard over
08:52And then everyone is really doing their own thing.
08:56The volume has to be adequate
08:58and it has to be in keeping with the presentation.
09:02This volume and the tone of your speech
09:08We're going to improve them too.
09:11Or are we going to use them to add an impact?
09:14when we vary that tone, that volume.
09:21Because it's not the same
09:22if I raise the volume to emphasize
09:25in all these tips that I'm giving
09:29because it's not the same
09:33turn up the volume
09:35intensify my tone and volume
09:38to give greater emphasis
09:41to all these aspects
09:43or these tips I'm giving
09:44or lower the volume
09:47so that they too can
09:50pay more attention
09:52to those important aspects
09:56of my speech.
09:58During your speech
09:59Ideally, you should have both.
10:01You raise and lower the volume
10:05You raise and lower your pitch too
10:08so that it doesn't get boring.
10:10If your tone becomes a constant tone
10:13no matter how good your message is
10:16or how well structured it is
10:19It's inevitably going to get boring
10:24And in 10 minutes it might be tolerable
10:28but 20, 30 minutes
10:30an hour with the same tone
10:32Nobody's going to listen to you
10:34You're not going to achieve that impact
10:37that you were looking for
10:38That's why you should always remember.
10:40make that variation of tones
10:44up and down
10:46so that it then becomes
10:47Your message is more interesting.
10:50Speed is another aspect
10:52very important
10:53if you always have the same rhythm
10:56along with the tone
10:58where all your speech
10:59It's going to get boring
11:01Don't do it
11:02It's better to vary your speed
11:05There will be parts
11:06where you have to speak
11:07faster
11:08to capture everyone's attention
11:10and there will be parts
11:12where you'll be interested
11:14crumble
11:16and list
11:18each of the things
11:20But you're going to do it
11:22at a slower speed
11:25again
11:26fast, slow
11:28fast, slow
11:29That way we will achieve
11:31more interest
11:32in this hearing
11:33the quality of your voice
11:36again
11:37according to the intention
11:39from your message
11:40quality has to be
11:42in general
11:43a friendly tone
11:45a peaceful tone
11:47a tone where
11:49people
11:50can be identified
11:51with you
11:52if I take a tone
11:53dictatorial
11:54And I'm not talking to him.
11:56to an army
11:57then the people
11:59probably
12:00go to
12:01retract
12:02don't feel
12:03identified
12:04with your message
12:05So be very careful.
12:07with those aspects
12:08of the quality
12:09from your message
12:09another aspect
12:11important
12:11that's the topic
12:12of the hesitations
12:14That's a mistake
12:16very common
12:17that we all have
12:18so deeply rooted
12:20What are the hesitations?
12:22We also call it
12:23commonly
12:24muletinas
12:25So I'm talking
12:27and
12:28so
12:30What I want to say
12:32the thing is
12:33crutch words
12:35They are words
12:38that do not add
12:39value your speech
12:40that we use them
12:42unconsciously
12:43again and again
12:44for two reasons
12:46a
12:46or because you are
12:48very nervous
12:49It's a common one
12:50or other
12:52to treat
12:53to buy time
12:54and think
12:55what is
12:56what I'm going to say
12:58so
13:00he told her
13:00that
13:01That doesn't add anything.
13:03value your message
13:04That makes you
13:05look unsafe
13:06we have to be
13:08efficient
13:09trying to remove
13:11little by little
13:12those crutch words
13:13That's not going to happen.
13:16of the night
13:16in the morning
13:17Nor will it be achieved
13:18Because I tell you so.
13:20You have to do it
13:22you consciously
13:23every time
13:24try to improve
13:25and for that
13:26you have to
13:27learn to identify
13:29which are
13:30those hesitations
13:32which are your favorites
13:34Those are the ones that
13:35You have to learn
13:36to remove
13:37little by little
13:37in the next section
13:39that we're going to see
13:41how can you improve
13:43continuously
13:44these messages
13:46I'm going to give some advice
13:47how
13:48recognize
13:50all these aspects
13:51that I have
13:52erroneous
