..and so does powerpoint..

...keynote..

...nuclear waste..

..and everything else that is
brighter than the speaker

All through history, people sought
for tools..

..to help them to be
heard above the crowd.

But when time passed..

… people also invented tools
to hide behind.

The bad thing about tools
is...

... they are all dead.

If you have something important
to say...

…and you want to be
heard…

…your presentation should be
alive.

So stop using dead tools.
;)

…and begin using a human
being’s most fundamental tools:

Your MIND...

…your BODY...

…and your VOICE.

Remember next time you
present...

…it is not about the
tools you use… ;)

…but about how badly you
want your ideas to be alive.
