Connecting Goes Beyond Words

If you want to be successful in connecting with people, you need to make sure your communication goes beyond words, by connecting on four levels.

  • Visually: You have seven seconds to make the right first impression.
  • Intellectually: To connect with people intellectually you must know two things: your subject and yourself.
  • Emotionally: People may hear your words but they feel your attitude.
  • Verbally: Words are the currency of ideas and have the power to change the world.

Keeping Your Communication Simple

Keeping Your Communication Simple

Constantly strive to simplify the complicated concepts and processes so you can make them accessible for the audience.

Don't try to impress the people in the room but to transfer information and to help make things understandable.

Humor, Heart, Hope, Help

  • Humor is something that will make the audience laugh and put them in a receptive mood.
  • Heart will captivate people’s emotions and get them engaged with your message.
  • Hope will inspire the audience and move them toward an objective.
  • Help is something that will assist the listener in some practical way as they listen and envision applying what you are sharing.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

samz905

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
