Show Notes: 7 Tips to Become a Better Speaker #2 - Capture Your Ideas In Tip #1 on how to become a better speaker, I challenged you to do all you can to learn, grow, and develop as a Thought Leader on your topic.
But...if you don't capture the ideas you discover, Tip #1 is useless.
Years ago, someone gave me advice that was so simple, yet it has become one of the most important habits I practice as a speaker.
Here's the advice: When You Think It, Ink It.
Whenever I find something that fits my topic, I write it down immediately.
But I don't just write it down. I make sure to save it in a place where I can find it later.
For some people, that place is a journal or notebook.
For me, it's Evernote. I have a speaking folder in Evernote where I capture all the ideas about my speaking topic that pop into my brain. (BTW, the main reason I like Evernote is it's much easier to search for what I've recorded than it is in a journal or notebook.)
But no matter what system you use, never forget... When You Think It, Ink It.
