How rewarding and exciting would it be to share that moment with them?! Imagine if you could find the right words, were so clear on your message, and had such great delivery and structure that you knew whoever you were speaking with really GOT IT.

And we share our message in a linear way, not in a structure that ebbs and flows and builds momentum for our listener. If we’re still thinking our ideas through we come across as vague or unsure, leaving confidence on the table. We tend to ramble, losing our ideas in words. It’s always been fascinating to me that going along with the natural way of communicating is not necessarily the most effective method to get your point across. I imagine you’re wondering why you are limited to so few words, what parts of your work might be most interesting to me, and 100 words to share what exactly? What are your first instincts? What questions are running through your head? Imagine that you had to come up with a short ‘pitch’ right on the spot. Pretend I’m sitting in front of you right now and asked you this. “What would you say if you only had 100 words persuade me?”
