Rehearse until it looks effortless from "summary" of The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs: How to Be Insanely Great in Front of Any Audience by Carmine Gallo
Steve Jobs was a master presenter. His key to success was preparation. Jobs spent hours, days, and sometimes weeks rehearsing his presentations. He would go over every detail until he was satisfied that every slide, every word, every movement was perfect. Jobs understood that the key to making a presentation look effortless was to put in the effort beforehand. He knew that by rehearsing repeatedly, he could internalize the material and deliver it naturally. Jobs also realized that by rehearsing, he could anticipate potential problems and have solutions ready. When Jobs took the stage, he appeared calm and collected. He moved with purpose and confidence, engaging his audience with every word. His movements were deliberate, his gestures were precise. Jobs had rehearsed so many times that he could focus on connecting with his audience, rather than worrying about what to say next. Rehearsing until a presentation looks effortless is not about memorizing a script. It's about internalizing the material so that you can speak about it conversationally. It's about being so familiar with the content that you can adapt to any situation. By putting in the time to rehearse, you can deliver a presentation that captivates your audience. You can appear confident and in control, even if you're feeling nervous inside. Rehearsal is the key to making a presentation look effortless, and Steve Jobs proved time and time again that it's worth the effort.
