I recorded only the spoken part of my presentation the other day. Not for posterity. Like most people, I don't care for the way my recorded voice sounds. After all, I'm more accustomed to hearing my voice through the thick layer of my skull. photo credit: rayced But my recorded voice? Ergo, Not for posting online. Not for anyone to listen to... ...except

Do you listen and watch your recorded speeches? It can be a real challenge to do this, in part because all your assets and flaws are revealed in a recording. A colleague and I recently started an online radio show. Yet, I was eager to hear the recorded show, and I did that soon after the air time. Of course, with any new technology there will be technical glitches that need to be smoothed out. Our first show aired in late December, and did have some glitches.

Fortunately, Keynote allows you to do this, by recording your presentation with the appropriately named option in the “Play” menu.  Unfortunately, Keynote will only take one recording.  You can’t piece multiple recordings together.  Sometimes, we may find ourselves in a situation where we want to make our presentation (at least the audio part) and slides available for viewing at a later date.  If you’re like me and you feel more comfortable in front of an audience than recording your talk, this can be a problem. 

One of the smartest things you can do is to be ready to write down or audio tape things the audience yells out to you when you are having fun with them. These lines can be used by you in future speeches. One of my stories is about a riches to rags story that I lived.

My professional comeback as a writer piggybacked on Dominick Dunne's.  0160; After falling from grace like myself, Dunne followed Tina Brown's advice and applied his Hollywood mindset to covering courtroom drama .  0160; That visual, gossipy, and value-laden approach changed not only legal journalism but also how attorneys, judges, plaintiffs and defendants comported themselves during trials. 

You’ll find, perhaps unexpectedly, that there were indeed lessons in there that you later applied to your own work or personal life. (10) Go for long walks alone (with ability to record your observations) . As you walk, if an idea snaps into your head or you notice something that stimulates your imagination, use the voice recorder in your phone (or other device) to record the idea.
