A 44mins video without him using filler words, he slows down while talking, engages his audience,seeks feedback from them, uses silence strategically and speaks mindfully He is really GOATED for public speaking.
This is God sent. I blush and perspire and it has really destroyed my life. I am 38 years old now and still faces this issue. Somehow as a younger person I thought, that it would go away as I grow older, but it never did. I just came home after having dinner at a friends place and while socializing my anxiety kicked in and I blushed and started perspiring again. Went home dejected, fired up my P.C and decided, my time's better spent learning Japanese then wallowing in self pity, but for some reason the app won't open. So opened RUclips and this was in my recommendation. I will use this knowledge and better myself from this day onward. Thank You
You’ve got a twinnie here. Am 31 years old now and have always thought my public speaking anxiety will dissipate as I age. Boy was I wrong, and now the journey of redemption has begun.
Excellent video. The best tips for better speech I have ever heard include 1. Be knowledgeable on many topics and be a subject matter expert in your area. 2. Prepare your speech. Think about what you are going to say. There is no shame in writing your speech out. 3. Read out loud every day. Just as a singer will not improve with mouthing the words silently an orator needs to practice saying words. 4. Speak slow. 5. Smile and look very comfortable. 6. Concentrate fully on your speech to get in the zone. Don't get distracted and don't lose focus. 7. Role model a great speaking. Watch videos from Obama, Jay Leno, Josh Hawley and other great speakers. Watch their head, hands and other body movement. 8. Practice giving speeches preferrable out loud or at very least in your mind. 9. If you are given a tough question, answer it in frameworks rather than being potentially wrong with the answer. 10. Ask clarifying questions before you give your answer.
It's funny because your advices may work but are very rigid and prepared in advance. But the video was about improvisation, being in the present, truly listening to your audience 😅
@@Phileas_40 except for my #2 all of the guidance I gave prepares you advance for when you have improvise . Other guidance gave like smiling and focusing helps you during your speech.

Matt Abrahams’ talk on "Think Faster, Talk Smarter" really opened my eyes to some practical ways to handle on-the-spot speaking. One of the biggest takeaways was his focus on clarity over perfection,something I’ve always struggled with. Instead of getting hung up on sounding "just right," his approach is all about focusing on your main point and letting go of overthinking. It’s a talk that goes beyond the usual "just be confident" advice and offers real, actionable tips for anyone wanting to communicate better in high-pressure moments.
Oh my god. I’ve been seeking something like forever. 😮. It’s like this man has taken all my insecurities and has put it into language I understand and has given me perfect tips to work on this.
1. Manage anxiety 2. Turn down the volume on mental observation and evaluation 3. See conversation as a spontaneous opportunities. Four mindset tools : not yet ( it don’t well but just “not yet”, yes and (look for commonalities even if you disagree) , next play (move on to the next), missed takes ( reflect what went well and what didn’t.). Think of mistakes as “missed takes” learn and do it again. 4. Listening: a. Listen until u sweat- what’s the crux what are they saying - remember pace( slow down to listen) , space (move to a quieter place), grace ( listen to their intuition and observe them). Ask clarifying questions. Pause. Paraphrase. 5. Structure- package up information ( what, so what, now what) ❤6- kiss - be focused and keep it simple (relevance, (know feel do ) 7. Pitching ( what if you could , so that , for example, and that’s not all)
i've been listening to matt abrahams' podcast for the better part of a year... and honestly, i genuinely thought he was in his 30s or 40s just by going off his voice! i guess having a deep (and practiced) knowledge of your craft goes a long way towards how your communications are perceived and interpreted? appreciate all the nuggets of insight!
I've never felt 100% confident when put on the spot to speak like in a huge meeting or in front of a crowd. It's ironic because I am an ER nurse and I talk to a gazillion people daily. 1:1 conversation or with patients and their families I am ok with but in front of an audience or a group of people? I get really anxious. I am learning to embrace my weakness and I want to improve and gain more confidence and be a good speaker. I am an introvert and I tend to freaking rehearse what I would say before even the words come out of my mouth. I probably feel that I am not the only one who have this issue. I want to overcome this and turn this insecurity/weakness into my strength and be comfortable talking in front of many people. Thank you so much for this video. I am learning and will definitely apply what I learned here. I am in pursuit of pivoting my career and become a successful healthcare leader and becoming a confident speaker witha lot of sense is vital.
Outstanding lecture! I wish Matt had been my professor in college. Very engaging to the very end and extremely useful. There are clear applications across my life communicating with my family, in my roles in business development and in podcasting. Thanks, Matt!
I found you in RUclips by amazing accident, and I have been watching three videos on a road, I'm going to give a class for medical interpreters in Montana, and all your videos that I watched help me to feel more confident and get more ideas for my next class in March 2024. God bless your knowledge 🙏
This hits home! As someone who struggles with impromptu speaking, I'm excited to learn strategies for handling those spontaneous moments with more confidence. Looking forward to improving these essential skills. Thanks for sharing your expertise, Professor Abrahams!

This is the first time I have watched the video that I engaged from the beginning to the end and also want to comment immediately in the box here although I have listened to a large amount of video in the past. I felt it so fascinating because it is such a informative source that I can apply in reality. All of these things come up from my mind and I am so grateful for RUclips as it recommended me hearing your sharing. Thank you 🎉🎉
1)What? So what? Now what?. 2)Tell me the time, don’t make me a clock. 3) Structure/focus. pitching: what if you could, so that, for example, and that’s not all
Assume that everyone else has anxiety just as bad or worse as yourself.. then you realize there is nothing to be afraid of. Don't overthink it and worry about how you sound or what you're going to say. Jump into the moment until you're comfortable then the language takes care of itself.
Exactly, i did that and it helped me a lot, i payed attention how others seem nervous too and how they mess up sometimes and how its very common. it didnt make me completely anxiety free but it always helps me calm down the overthinking part and remember its not the end of the world:)
This was also a wonderful video to learn from. I get real tense when attempting to "say the right things"; so thank you for uploading this content for others to evolve from
"Great insights! Effective communication truly hinges on managing anxiety and adapting to the moment. Excited to learn how to make my words concise yet impactful. 👏🔥"
Thank you Matt. I hope to one day come back and repeat, reflect and seek feedback, from others and myself. Anyone else what like to share there feedback?
I have come across your vdo by accident and I am so glad I found this. Thank you for sharing this valuable knowledge and I feel much confidence to deliver my messages.
When i was teaching HS Drama 1, i was not teaching acting... i was teaching "how to speak publicly" and "make friends". Sure, we did it through games and scene work, but i think it helped.
Grace, space, and pace was Jaguar Cars advertising slogan from the 1950s. It was used in print ads through at least the mid 60s and even inspired recent model names like the I-Pace. 😊
this video is amazing! I always find it difficult to give talks or presentations, or just use my second language to talk with others. This helps me a lot❤
I have heard many talks on this talk and this is the best so far, it makes the sense straight away. I have already watched it multiple times and will listen to it again and again. Thanks a lot for such a life changing coaching on communication skills
The line that got me was, "Collins teaches critical and crucial conversations here at the business school." I am about to finish my business degree, and have looked at the course load for an MBA. None of the courses at my university sound anything close to as helpful and specific as that course.
It’s dificult to gasp the fact that we as a society need a “ how to have a conversation” course. It’s like teaching droids how to behave. Makes me sad. I appreciate the content nonetheles
I was thing this??? Why is it a class to talk. Everyone is different and every situation is subtly different… I feeel like he’s teaching how to be deceptive!!!
@kadutho because being able to communicate under high stress situation is a important skill set that should have been taught when we were kids but unfortunately was not. It’s not about “how to have a conversation “ but how to effectively bring across what’s in my mind to someone different from me and be able to connect with him through words

When i was teaching HS Drama 1, i was not teaching acting... i was teaching "how to speak publicly" and "make friends". Sure, we did it through games and scene work, but i think it helped.
thank you Steve Martin!

The line that got me was, "Collins teaches critical and crucial conversations here at the business school." I am about to finish my business degree, and have looked at the course load for an MBA. None of the courses at my university sound anything close to as helpful and specific as that course.
It’s dificult to gasp the fact that we as a society need a “ how to have a conversation” course. It’s like teaching droids how to behave. Makes me sad. I appreciate the content nonetheles
I was thing this??? Why is it a class to talk. Everyone is different and every situation is subtly different… I feeel like he’s teaching how to be deceptive!!!
@kadutho because being able to communicate under high stress situation is a important skill set that should have been taught when we were kids but unfortunately was not. It’s not about “how to have a conversation “ but how to effectively bring across what’s in my mind to someone different from me and be able to connect with him through words
Great tips on pricing! Really helpful.❤
I have been listening to your podcast on spotify for 2 years...now i get to see you :) thank you for the show...and love your voice and pace!
The framework is more than just about communication❤
