## Transcript

- [0:05](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=5) - How do they say you get perfect best of them?
- [0:08](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=8) Practice.
- [0:09](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=9) But that's a lie.
- [0:10](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=10) And you know why it's a lie.
- [0:12](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=12) Because everyone says I'm an amazing speaker.
- [0:14](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=14) but we've all been speaking our whole lives.
- [0:16](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=16) Most of you have been speaking longer than me.
- [0:20](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=20) So why am I better? What's the difference? I watch myself. Feedback.
- [0:27](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=27) Study.
- [0:27](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=27) If you don't study,
- [0:29](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=29) You won't get better.
- [0:31](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=31) I'll give you an example.
- [0:32](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=32) I'm shit at chess. Compared to my dad.
- [0:34](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=34) I hover between 1600 ELO when I'm really mad, like an idiot, and 1800 ELO.
- [0:39](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=39) in blitz. I play three minute blitz games.
- [0:42](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=42) I've been between 1600 and 1800 ELO.
- [0:44](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=44) for about eight years, even though I play chess for about half an hour a day, I never get better.
- [0:49](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=49) Why? Because I never analyzed the games.
- [0:52](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=52) When my dad would train me, we'd sit down and do the boring analysis.
- [0:56](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=56) Why, what could you have done? It's the analyze, it's the feedback that makes you better.
- [1:00](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=60) Why as a fighter, if you just spar every day, will you never be good? Because you don't train.
- [1:06](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=66) It's feedback that makes you good at things, not practice. You have to practice, then feedback, always.
- [1:12](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=72) And communication is one of the most important things, 'cause it's something you do every single day, all of the time.
- [1:17](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=77) If you're going to get good at one thing, you may as well get good at the thing you do most often.
- [1:20](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=80) And you're all talking all the time.
- [1:23](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=83) So you may as well get good at it.
- [1:25](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=85) So you have to analyze yourself. That's the reason I said this "I'm an ah" thing, to make it difficult for you. I understand it's nervous. I understand you're up here and you're talking in front of people and it's nerve wracking.
- [1:34](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=94) But you should be going through your life in general, catching yourself doing it and not allowing yourself to do it.
- [1:40](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=100) Because that feedback, it won't take long. It'll take three months.
- [1:43](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=103) until you find a way to just stop saying it. And it's so unique
- [1:46](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=106) That you don't realize how many people you're speaking to who do it until you stop.
- [1:51](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=111) It's like saying, have you ever seen a red car, and you drop it on the road and every car is red?
- [1:55](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=115) When I sit and listen to somebody, I'm literally listening to them thinking, fuck, you know,
- [1:59](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=119) You've been speaking your whole life.
- [2:00](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=120) You're a dummy.
- [2:02](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=122) Right? Because I don't do it anymore.
- [2:05](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=125) So it's a pet peeve of mine almost. But you have to self-analyze yourself all of the time. Don't allow yourself to get away with it when you're not in this environment. It sounds like a small thing.
- [2:14](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=134) But I'm telling you, when you can compendiously, concisely explain your point of view, when you can do what I do, which is machine gun five points at once,
- [2:23](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=143) especially in a debate, it's very hard to argue against me. If you give me a minute, I've made five points and linked it into two older points, and I've hinted at a future point.
- [2:31](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=151) And now you have to counter that. And you're like, "You're a misogynist. You can't argue with me. That's why the BBC got wrecked."
- [2:39](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=159) So you have to be very good. If I was saying on my BBC interview, uh, uh,
- [2:43](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=163) It would have been over.
- [2:45](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=165) I could have said the same things with a couple ums and ahs. It would have been over. I'm the worst man in the world.
- [2:49](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=169) So it's battle, it's war.
- [2:51](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=171) So I want you to all become very, very good with your speech. Because it's an easy thing. It's not difficult. It's not fighting. You're not getting hit.
- [2:57](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=177) Stop saying um, stop saying ah.
- [2:59](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=179) How do you structure
- [3:01](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=181) You need a pause to think.
- [3:03](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=183) So what I will do is I will either literally take a pause,
- [3:07](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=187) and stop.
- [3:08](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=188) And a lot of that is body language to allow yourself to be given the time to do that.
- [3:12](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=192) Or the second thing I'll do if I make a mistake is I'll repeat myself.
- [3:15](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=195) So I'll say,
- [3:17](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=197) So I'll say something like, there's an example. So I'll say, so I'll say. That sounds better than going, so I'll say, um...
- [3:23](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=203) And I know English isn't always your first language. I know for some of you people I'm not as hard because English isn't your first language. I completely get that.
- [3:29](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=209) It's also the reason I refuse to speak another language because I speak English so well that I don't want to
- [3:33](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=213) If you want to speak to me, speak to me in my language. It's my battlefield.
- [3:37](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=217) But English is the language of the world, so you may as well get very, very good at it. And it will translate to all of your personal relationships,
- [3:43](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=223) Your arguments will become shorter.
- [3:45](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=225) You'll make more money, everything is from communication.
- [3:48](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=228) That's why I have a stick, and that's why I have a pet peeve for ums and ahs.
- [3:52](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=232) because it's the easiest way to just improve your overall status. Because you also come across extremely confident when you don't use um and ah.
- [3:58](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=238) You look like you know exactly what you're talking about when you don't use amana.
- [4:01](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=241) If I say what's two plus two and you go, um, four, you look dumb.
- [4:05](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=245) If I say what's 2 plus 2 and you go 4, you look smart. The "um" makes you look like an idiot. So it's a pet peeve of mine, I just said it's twice.
- [4:14](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=254) I just did it.
- [4:15](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=255) So I'm self-analyzing myself all the time to make sure I don't do that.
- [4:18](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=258) So that's why I've said it before this, to make it hard for all of you when you stand up here and you're nervous and you start going, um, um, um.
- [4:24](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=264) But in general life, try not to do it because you'll see your life improve. You'll see your interactions with people improve in real time. You'll notice.
- [4:32](https://www.wordtoclip.com/v/0df15359-2493-4b96-b334-2ab9995cbb33?t=272) .
