What is up friends it is the fifth of January Tuesday 2021 and today I want
to talk about why I watch my own talks and workshops and listen to my ownpodcasts and all that stuff so I know a lot of people who give talks and
say that like one of their least favorite things to do short of talking infront of people is listening to themselves talking front of people and I I
don't share that feeling.
I I don't dread listening to myself talk on like,Podcasts or wherever I but
I I it's not like I just do it as a what's the I can't remember the word so
many just loved myself whatever that word is but um, the reason I wasthinking about this was just because in my blog post that I was yesterday,
it was my review of 2020.I mentioned how like I think it's important to review your you know, how
things go and so I said that I watch almost every talk and video.Cast thatI produce and I use that as an opportunity to identify ways to improve and
I think that that's really important so if you're the type of person that
just like hates hearing yourself talk or whatever I think that I mean,that's that's fine but maybe get over it because how can you identify ways
to improve the way that you deliver a talk or the way that you created avideo or the podcast that you recorded whether you're the host or the guest
how can you identify ways to improve if you don't.
Review that material so this is just an invitation to you to find somecontent that you've created or whatever and give it a little review and try
to look at it from the eyes of somebody who doesn't know the subject matter
and see if or or yeah really just look at it through the eyes of yourintended audience and see if you deliver the material in the way that your
intended audience needs it to be delivered and maybe you can take notes.I don't really take notes.When I go through this stuff, but maybe you could
and see ways that you could improve that so anyway. I hope that's helpful
to you and I hope you have an awesome day and do check out this review of2020 on my blog KCD to IM / blog and then you'll find 2028 review okay,
that was fun happy day, we'll see you around bye.
