All my 3 siblings are like that. My older brother isn’t as educated as the other two but he can draw people in. I am the most educated (on paper) but I am boring.
Thanks for sharing this! As a student it is good to see what can be expected in the real world. You raise an interesting point about not limiting these skills to the conference room. How many times have we been cut off in normal day-to-day discussions when we weren't even done getting to the point? If you're like me, it happens often; it's frustrating and can actually lead to losing the train of thought all together. Connector phrases like, "and here's why..." are great place holders in the flow of conversation. It signals to the listener in a polite manner that you're not done speaking. I'll definitely be binge watching your videos today in between work and studies! Great video! Thanks again!
Best video ! I believe she is a great speaker. Very clear tone, right speed and clarity of ideas. I learnt a lot from this video. I use to speak too fast & now I speak slowly. I make sure I get proper attention & message reaches clearly to other person. My art of speaking became more articulate, instantly. Thanks Kara
Mam you are gem of a person. In one video you covered everything necessary. You must have researched and practiced a lot. I wish I had your contact or email.
Stop Worrying About What Others Think: Self-doubt and worry about others' opinions can hinder your ability to speak quickly and intelligently. This can trigger a fight-or-flight response, which diverts resources away from cognitive thinking and communication. Get Straight to the Point: Avoid confusing or boring your audience by circling around the topic. Identify your main point before you start speaking and get to it quickly. Handling Unexpected Questions: When asked a question you're not sure how to answer, pause, acknowledge the question, repeat it, and then share your honest thoughts and opinions. Use Intriguing Connectors: Connectors are phrases that link your main point to your explanation or elaboration. They keep your audience engaged and interested in what you're going to say next. Examples include "Here's why...", "I'll tell you what that would look like...", and "There are three reasons why I believe that...". Highlight the Number of Points: Clarify in your mind and for your audience the number of points you're going to discuss. This helps you talk faster and smarter on the spot and helps your listener to follow you better.
Hi, Kara, your tips were really useful. May I also suggest that a good way to prepare to think fast and talk smart is to do all your thinking IN ADVANCE and write your ideas down. For instance, if I'm attending a meeting on water conservation, I'll sit for 30 minutes and reflect on all I know about the subject and consider it from every angle. I'll jot everything down. Then I'll check one or two authoritative synopses. Finally, I'll devise several possible questions and practise answering them. It may take an hour to prepare myself to speak for two minutes. It works.
I'm speechless! I mean this is absolutely amazing your tips are helpful and the manner you move all the way through the whole video is full of energy and can't bore the viewer You're great kara!
This is the best video I’ve viewed so far! Thank you Kara for the useful tips in relation to think fast talk smart! I can’t wait to see what your future videos will be about! A suggestion from me would be “how to build your brand at work by showcasing your contribution to the team and business”. Personally, I contribute a lot but I tend to make my work look simple and easy to do yet hardly anyone at work been able to do what I did.
I am much inspired your flow and stressung patterns and pronunciation. Further I must say much about your rhythm which is accompanied by the speed. Thanks much .
hi Kara. All your videos have been so helpful. I relate so much especially to this video, and the part about holding back due to overthinking about what other people think. I struggle so much due to this, even during general conversations. Could you perhaps do a video on how to not worry about what other people think in midst of conversation? I tend to do it subconsciously
@syeella8135 Tell your mind every morning. I am liked by all and my points are heard by all very nicely. This exercise is to boost your confidence permanently. Put it as a daily morning ritual. Practice in front of mirror.
There’s a good TED talk about this. Basically, tell yourself you are excited, not scared. Then remind yourself that the anxiety is just your being excited. It’s calming and does seem to help.
Thanks Kara, I am currently preparing speech for Toastmasters and these tips will be hugely beneficial for my speech and answering table topics ( impromptu speech)
You are awesome, thanks !!. Also it's important to speak relax in a slow - medium pace, using fillers also like "mm you know, it's like, well, others " those give you time to think the next idea
Really helpful useful tips. Thank you! As an emerging leader who is an introvert at heart, I have to be intentional in trying to improve this about myself as it could possibly be a hindrance to me climbing the career ladder. Also the video you referenced at the end isn't at the top corner of the video.
I definitely agree with you, it was useful.However, we don't need to use this method in some situations and some people prefer to take time before talking so my philosophy it is not necessary but useful. In my opinion, writing can also affect our thinking to talk smart because you learn how to express ideas slowly ❤ .
Love the tips although very often it is the lack of ability to keep up with discussions in a meeting that gives me the most fear. I can be a good speaker but have big psychological trouble listening and understanding deep conversations.
You are not alone..... really, you aren't.......I'm not quite there, but I will be and so will YOU. It actually has nothing to do with the present. Go back to how you were raised or talked to when you were in school. When you find that ONE place, that ONE person that made you feel insecure then you have answered your question. Good luck, it took me a mere 30 years.......God bless you.
It does take a lot of concentration to do that. Asking questions for clarification or rephrasing what people say might help you jump into the conversation as you prepare your own thoughts.
Great video Kara! I would also recommend once you are poised with a challenging question is to 1. Clarify the question. What are they specifically asking you 2. Make assumptions in answering the question 3. Based on who your audience is answer the question that you wanted asked and not the question that was asked . 4. Use frameworks to answer question. If for example the question is your corporations profitability, state the general facts about either increasing revenue or lowering cost.
Madam, you are awesome. Each of your sentence has deep meaning and is thorough. You choose topics that affect us in our daily lives. You are simply fantastic. Thanks for doing these videos. All the best to you. Regards
I think talking fast is the best way to carry on your conversation smoothly, even if you hve something in mind which you could not articulate properly or something you are missing during conversation, you could carry on by restructuring in speedway, instead of muting completely...thts my experience
This is a really great great great video I have ever seen in my life. Thank you again for sharing those 4 tips so I can capable of speaking in public and overcome my fear.
You mixed the phrases sometimes i.e. "thinking smart and talking fast" rather than the other way round. The golden rule is not to talk fast. Take your time while talking, you own the moment, your brain will be untangled and you can think more clearly. You're not in a contest with Eminem.
@@Farooqummer She is talking fast and with confident about the topic. Though the context is not live but she give me the impression that she does talk fast in live as well!
Thank you for such great tips and for the awesome examples. To see actual examples is so crucial! And thank you for connecting them all so beautifully and showing how they all depend on each other. You presented them in a way where I didn’t have to rewatch, because you explained each tip perfectly and reminded me of them along the way. I love this video, and it’s so much better than videos that just name the tips. Thanks so much, and wish me luck talking! 🙈
It has been one of the best practical approaches that everyone should do while we face the different situations, trying to exhibit as intelligent as how the intellectual are revealing.we are thankful to her as she captivated our hearts, expecting to get more videos like this ❤❤
Fantastic video. Some people also argue that when you speak fast you don’t look confident or you are stressed. If you speak slowly does it mean that you can’t think fast or you are not smart?
Great question. Speaking slow doesn't mean you can't think fast. It means you're thoughtful about what you say. Many articulate speakers speak slower so they can choose the right words to express what they want. Just make sure it's not too slow.
There are individuals out there who have mastered the art of talking smart without actually knowing what they are talking about.
I’m one of them. You’d be amazed at what I can get away with.
Absolutely. And I envy them.
All my 3 siblings are like that. My older brother isn’t as educated as the other two but he can draw people in. I am the most educated (on paper) but I am boring.
Kara thank you ,you just touched my spot.I have an assessment 7:30 am on Wednesday.These tips have put me through.Thanks .
I also believe “nutrition” and “sleeping well” has a lot to do with being articulate and aware when communicating…

thank you very much, super helpful
Well this was so awesome Iwas suppose to here this in my 40s
Hi Kara! it is a really interesting topic.
A great video. I believe this tips will help me to become more smarter. Thank you. 🙏
Very much needed 👍
Hi Kara , i love all your videos, could you talk about how to tackle jealousy in workplace? I would appreciate it ! 😊
It's funny but this was a topic on my list of future videos! Thanks for the clarification that is a topic you want to learn about :)
I would suggest focusing on yourself and letting others do what they do.
P
It’s not a zero sum game at work ..the wave 🌊 will lift everyone when the team does better
I am in disbelief of how jealous some ppl are of me at work that they feel the need to put me down
I wish I had listened to this before a very stressful interview I just had
Well, it's still here for you to watch next time you need it!

True. Talking fast is a sign of NOT confident or comfortable. Talk slow u can own the audience.
@@Farooqummer She is talking fast and with confident about the topic. Though the context is not live but she give me the impression that she does talk fast in live as well!
@ymvtech Fair point, but the essence of what she's saying is responding quickly not the speed at which words are coming out.
I am sure you have noticed the video has been edited to cut the gaps between words.
~140 words per minute is a good talking speed and what I was taught by a voice coach.
Nice I love this your teaching is very good
