As usual, i will record down what i have learned in my blog as all these are worth while to be remembered. I learned a new technique for public speaking presentation yesterday; i.e. presenting speech is like a roller coaster actually. Have you ever rode on a roller coaster? How does it feel like? Does it come in speedy way in all the way? Or does it have a slower motion or stop at intervals?
To be able enjoy the full excitement, roller coaster will have speedy and slower movement according to where it goes to. At certain time, it may stop and hang up at halfway to increase the excitement.
Similarly, when we do presentation, it is necessary for us to have 'pause' to make the audience think as well as to create suspense to the audience. Let the silence speak. When there is some seconds for audience to think, you actually have let the audience rewind back on your speech and drawing the story line of the speech in their memory. With this, it can help in engaging the audience more to the speech.
Hereby, i would also like to share part of the theory shared by Bryan Tracy "The first party to make a concession is the party who wants to deal the most. You must therefore avoid being the first one to make a concession, even a small concession. Instead, be friendly and interested, but remain SILENT."

Sometimes we just talk too fast, and the audiences just can't catch our points.
yes, agree! We might need to adjust the tempo of speaking depends on the type of speech we are presenting.
