Micro-habits to get started
Small actions of a few minutes to start this habit:
Sum it up in one sentence
Write in under fifteen words the one thing your audience should remember.
If you can't sum it up, your audience won't be able to either.
5 minSplit it into three blocks
Arrange the content in three blocks with one idea, one argument and one example each.
Three is what working memory holds effortlessly.
15 minRehearse aloud with a timer
Say it standing, start to finish, measuring the real running time.
Memorize word for word only your first and last sentence.
