Motivational Speaker Training-2009
Like the earth of a hundred years ago, our mind still has its darkest Africa, its unmapped Borneos and Amazonian basins. – Aldous Huxley
There is perhaps no application of this quote more fitting than in the realm of public speaking. How much has speaking really changed and improved in the last one hundred years? Pause for a moment to consider the past 100 years: How much has technology changed? How much has health care changed? How much has transportation changed? How much has athletics changed? How about motivational speaking? Has speaking changed at all in the past century? We seem to be still hiding in the comfort of rules and traditions. But we have unmapped territories to explore. New communication horizons await each of us in our speaking careers. One key to braving this new world of motivational speaking is to get motivational speaker training.

Writing your Motivational Speaker Book
Writing your Motivational Speaker Book
In becoming a Motivational Speaker it is important to have a book authored by you. There are lots of ways to go about getting this accomplished but step one is a mental shift. Commit to the fact that you do indeed have a motivational speaker book to write. This is very important, as you will inevitably struggle through many obstacles. You must persevere in mining your own passion as the key to that.
Question number One: What book do you have inside you?
Commit to a place of writing. I wrote my first book in Big Sur, Ca. It took many trips, but because I conditioned myself to write there, creativity soared each time I arrived there. I have a friend in Atlanta who just finished his first book. He wrote it in his local library. He noticed that when he arrived at his table in the library, ideas began flowing.
Question number Two: What location will be your center for creative thought?
Walk, walk, walk. It refreshes the body, mind and soul. Sam
Horn, best-selling author, muses, “When we walk, angels whisper to us.”
Find the unique message in your book, and exploit it.
Question number Three: What message in your book is not available in print? (Hint: think personal experience) Avoid the trap of perfection. Too many writers get overwhelmed with the reality that the words of their book will live forever. Sometimes even paragraphs are worded and re- worded so many times it drains the writer, and quenches the creativity. Write what you believe…and keep writing. You can change things later in your book, or even share your new insights in a following book. Just write! Spend a lot of time on the title. Believe me – it makes a big difference. Include marketing in your book! I have a friend who, in his book, includes positive comments on products, as part of the story line. (The comfortable ride in the BMW, the perfect taste of the Miller Light beer,
etc. He then approaches those organizations to buy his book as a give-away that endorses their product.) I once mentioned a friend of mine was a great example of integrity. He was a real-estate agent. He bought a hundred copies to give to potential clients.
Question number Four: When will you start? Get Started Now! Everyone has a book inside them. Most are even planning to “write it all down”…one day. Very few ever do. In your motivational speaking Job think of your book as just a necessary part of the package of what you offer you clients. (Much more to come later – Good Luck!)
