➤➤Transcript (partial):
If you're gonna speak about something, you need to know a lot about it. You need to know three or four times as much as you're gonna speak about at minimum. So, first of all, you have to do your background research. You have to have multiple stories at hand that you can use to illustrate your point, and you have to have a point. You have to organize what you're talking about around a problem. So, before I go onstage to speak on my tour, I always sit for half an hour, some of which involves usually about five minutes of anxiety, and I think-okay, there's a problem I'm trying to address tonight, a central problem or a theme, what is it? Might be courage, it might be responsibility, it might be meaning. That serves as an organizing principle. So that would be the point. And then basically I organize, say, a dozen stories around that, and I-I can kind of arrange them as a journey, and it's a journey that circles the main point. And so I'm trying to explore it to say what I think about courage, let's say, but to take what I'm thinking farther than I've taken it already. And so then I can plot out, you know, little five-minute stories that I have that are associated with courage and then I can talk to the audience, and I would say talk about what you know. Use your personal experience because that's-that's something that you're actually a master of. You can bring in other material but it has to be tied to the real world, through your own experience, otherwise it's not real. It's also very good to speak directly to the audience, to the individuals in the audience, ‘cause I'm always looking at a single person, one after another, and focusing on them, and talking to them just like you'd have a conversation with someone, and that way I can see if they're following along and I'm always listening to the audience. What I really like to hear from the audience is no noise at all, silence, because if the audience, especially, you know, if it's a couple hundred or a couple of thousand people, if the audience is dead silent then I know that I'm on the right track. And the other thing I would say is you're telling stories, so every fact that you relate or every set of facts has to be tied to a story. There has to be a meaningful output, which is something like, why is it important to your life that you know this fact? How is it related to how you're going to conduct yourself moving forward or how you’re going to see the world? ‘Cause that's kind of the essence of meaning. How does this fact change the way you perceive the world or act in the world? That's the meaning of the fact and facts without meaning are dull. So you need to know that. You need to tell the truth. That's for sure. And-I mean, for me my talks are really-they're an attempt to explore a set of ideas in the most truthful way that I can manage, and that's also an adventure because letting yourself speak freely about a topic, you don't always know where it's gonna go. And so-but that also hooks in the audience because they're not-they’re along for the ride, right, and there's a risk. The risk is you might forget where you are, you might lose the thread, you might say something you regret, you might get confused. The talk should be a process of exploration like a journey that you're taking the audience along on. It's the same when you're reading a novel, like a great novel isn't exactly plotted out from beginning to end to begin with. The author is taking himself or herself and you on an intellectual adventure through the-through the character development...

I love intelligent people , don't ever stop talking Jordan .

One of the key facts is always _relatability_ - you have to make sure that you use the words and concepts your audience knows and likes!
Lol, unless it’s Dr. JP.. I’d be really impressed if his following could follow all the connections he makes pulling from famous people and different ideologies through history. I think his following likes not knowing it all and he inspires them to know more and to stretch their psyche
I love getting an information-dense morsel that I get to explore and find new favorite writers, thinkers, whole subjects of study
@@Sokofeather Butt 😊
Thank you so much for this! Much needed. Good luck to anyone preparing a talk!
Meeeeeeee!!!! 😊
It's great having you back professor Peterson, thank you for the effort you put on keeping up with the online material! I admire the work you do and have been following you for several years now. Cheers from Bolivia 🇧🇴
Mr. Peterson’s talks and lectures have helped to expand my introspection. Keep it up!
It has been a while since I listened to Jordan, you are truly a mystical figure in our modern time, It is wonderful when people of this level of intelligence get recognised and have many followers, keep it up🤗
I just love listening to this man talk!! Fellow Canadian too so that makes it even better!!
I wish speaking in front of people was a gift I was born with... I almost always find myself having to talk in front of people and i end up saying something I wish I didn't, and end up feeling so ashamed.
Great insight! Thank you.
He definitely is an interesting guy that’s for sure
Wow.... That just answered a whole load of questions I've had for years...
Really useful actually :)
I‘m reading 12 rules for life at the moment - Love his work!
4:10 indeed... Every time I prepare a speech, I fail. However, once I tried to speak freely with only a few ideas in mind and with known information that I can easily explain and it was indeed abig improvement. If you learn definitions by heart and you don't understand them and if you memorize a speech by heart, most probably may forget it and lose the thread...
I think there was a lot of important remarks on this video. Thank you!
Life is like a video game, if there are no challenges to meet, no mountains to climb, no rivers to cross, no enemies to fight, You are going in the wrong direction 🖖
Only If it's like a video game.
The key is to make choices to allow you to have fun challenges.
Thanks
Thank you
I’m going to a Jordan Peterson speech next month my sweet dad but him and I tickets I’m so excited and nervous lol
Brilliant!
Thank you so much for that content
As a pastor, this is mainly how I approach my messages

Please tell me how you speak to a crowd. Do you look at every person individually or is it okay to look over their heads? I need this information within the next 24 hrs if you could be kind enough to reply. Thanks.
@@Adrien_broner I look around the room, making eye contact for brief periods. When making a convicting or deep point, I seldom make eye contact, because that person tends to think I'm directing my comments strictly to them, which is not the case. Eye contact is a good way to keep everyone engaged in what you are saying, but don't "lock eyes" with any particular person. Keep your view point moving around the room as to connect with the entire audience
@@mpagels2784 Perfect timing. I’m giving my testimony of salvation tomorrow before I get baptized. This should help me. Thank you sir.
Jordan this is good,also understand that speaking publicaly and or on personnal basis implys that you know your subject inside out but knowing it is not enough you need to understand it inside out meaning that you are not reciting a subject but rather sharing your knowledge of it in such profound understanding that you don't need to follow a specific order unless their needs to be chronology in the understanding of what you are talking about otherwise you know your stuf so completely that you will allways find your way to come back to where you skided volonteraly. You must posess your subject so profoundly has to become and feel the subject you are talking about, now you can communicate the true essents of what you wish to convey and that will give you so much passion and intensity that your adience will understand from within and not just learn but UNDERSTAND the subject and you that beleive me gratification of a presentation well done and effective
Regards and keep up the great work.

You blew it dude 🤫
Lord help me. I like to be like this man.
Jesus Christ is Lord.🙏❤✝
In a world that corrupts truth and persecutes the innocent, we must always remember that He (God's truth, love, and mercy) is Lord. 🙏❤✝
You zombie cant
The world is not a better place since Jesus came 2000 years ago. The Lord is not out there. The Creator is within each of us and one day we will remember who we really are in this 3D world of contrast
What if you're just giving an informational presentation and not trying to solve a problem?
Know about the topic, have adequate knowledge, that is. Put it in order to aid good delivery. Make it original by spicing it up with your style. Control your audience. Ensure there is silence. There should be a meaningful output... facts without meaning are dull 👍
BAL is the secret
Ah, back when Jordan Peterson was a great learning resource and intellectual icon! I miss this man. He's gone off the religious deep end.
Today, attention span has shrunk to milliseconds, unfolding a truth with details and facts leading up to a climactic conclusion - not happening, unless you’re an audience member of JBP.
The manner he dissected his tips gave me an even more impressive knowledge than the tips. ahah
Only if a speaker tells an audience what the audience wants to hear, will the audience LOVE what the speaker says.

Wow, thank you Jordan you saved me so much agony. Which on surface explains why we wrestle with God. Overworked processor

@@DiverFerris lol ur the one who has to watch a video just to speak to an audience
@@QiratAintcring3 Bold words from someone trolling in the comments. Maybe you should watch it twice.
@@DiverFerris bold of u to assume i was even trolling
@@QiratAintcring3well said
How to talk to an audience: Take barbituates and then hypocritically tell your followers that they shouldn't do drugs to get by... IMO he's got a loooong way to go before ANYONE should be taking his advice again. He betrayed a lot of people by pretending he was sober for YEARS when in reality he was abusing a drug that made him FEARLESS in front of audiences. Y'all need to pay attention to who you are worshipping.
