thoughts you should know

One powerful skill of great speakers is the ability to patiently wait. When soliciting questions from an audience, for example, the great ones realize it may take a few moments up before the first brave soul pops the first question. So-so speakers however get nervous, interrupting what seems to them like an interminable period of silence (5-10 seconds?) with a plea such as, "Isn't there SOMEONE out there who has a question?"

Instead, the great speakers know full well there ALWAYS is, so they hang in there patiently waiting. Lesson? Cultivate patience for when you next find yourself awaiting your audience's first question.
