Mistake 1
The first one is to convert the powerpoint in
our main verbal speech, putting all the text
there and just reading out loud.
• (and no, bullet points help)
That is not a presentation: that is a public
reading session, and it leads to boredom.
Mistake 2
• Our sales have increased 100%
• That means we are 100% reacher!
• Market expectactions are so good
• A destiny of health and luxury await us
(Quotations from Wonderland
two different speeches of the same
lingüistic nature; it leads to confusion.

A natural storyboard
Smoothly follow yourvoice
Las escaleras se suben de frente, pues hacia atrás o de costado resultan
particularmente incómodas.
La actitud natural consiste en mantenerse de pie, los brazos colgando
sin esfuerzo, la cabeza erguida aunque no tanto que los ojos dejen de
ver los peldaños inmediatamente superiores al que se pisa, y respirando
lenta y regularmente.
Para subir una escalera se comienza por levantar esa parte del cuerpo
situada a la derecha abajo, envuelta casi siempre en cuero o gamuza, y
que salvo excepciones cabe exactamente en el escalón.
