If you don’t believe in yourself and your message, the audience won’t either. Let them know exactly why they should listen to you and what qualifies you to discuss this topic.

The last in our four part series on persuasive speaking is all about how you close the sale.

11-year-old Caine Smith was choked, beaten, harassed, and was called a long list of names simply because he had two moms and long hair. Instead of staying locked away and hiding, he stood up and did something about it.

If you share this, you'll be helping make sure The Bully Project is seen in schools across the country. Caine would appreciate it.

A double masectomy... to beat cancer. 

And yes, she had implants put in. And yes, she had the money and foresight and gumption to be able to get pre-screened for the BRCA-1 mutation . And yes, she was able to get the best possible medical care. And... yes Brad Pitt was by her side every moment.

All that notwithstanding... she is decreasing stigma and increasing hope that we can challenge this breast (and ovarian) cancer tragedy. Her risk for breast cancer dropped from 87% to less than 5%. 

Well done Angelina. Thank you for your bravery in sharing this publicly http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/14/opinion/my-medical-choice.html . That's some true guts... screw Lara Croft.

Please please please teach your children kindness. 

As a sibling of a child with cerebral palsy it was my lot in gradeschool life to hear words like "retard" and "there's the sister of the monster". Kids can be cruel because they're not taught any better. Teach compassion. Please. 

This is so very sad. This young man had Autism and was shamed and ridiculed incessantly... then this happened... handed a bomb shaped like a golf ball specifically meant for him. Premeditated and cruel.

The best speakers take their audience on a journey... you CAN get them there quickly with these simple Gingery tips. 

2013-05-14 13:06:09 (4 comments, 2 reshares, 14 +1s)

Here's an observation and tip that may lead to better moments that lead to better days and a better life:

-- Life is filled with creeps.  Don't play with them, don't respond to them, and if one of them got into your house, remain calm, get the creep out as quickly as possible, and then carry on.  

-- If you're a creep, consider change. *

You're welcome.

* If you spend, say, more than 10% of your thoughts and communications on calling others things like asshole, moron, idiot, 'tard, and the like, then you're probably a creep.  The "Takes one to know one rule" does apply in life, you know.  Consider change. 

PS:  Irony is a communication device that is used for effect. It's not a lifestyle choice.  Creeps who routinely opt for irony (or, more likely, sarcasm) are really saying, I wish not to be hurtagain,... more »
