Warning: I’m about to spoil the entire book for you…
Here’s how the story starts:
Once upon a time, I was an awful public speaker – really, really bad. My mind was filled with fear, uncertainty, and self-doubt. My delivery was dominated by stumbles and mistakes.
Now, I’m a phenomenal communicator. (I’m also very humble, in case you can’t tell.)
But seriously:
I’ve won 27 awards as a debater (including a State Championship), I’ve coached hundreds of people in public speaking, I've delivered communication training to Fortune 500 companies, I’ve consulted on communication for billion-dollar organizations, and I’ve become a bestselling author.
This book is about how I made that move from very bad to very good – and how anyone else can make a similar improvement no matter their current skill level as a speaker.
HOW? Spoiler continued…
There are two ways to communicate:
#1: You can lean on your conscious mind.
#2: You can rely on your subconscious.
Most people choose option 1. My thesis is that option 2 is way better.
In fact, shifting from 1 to 2 is how I improved.
I know it sounds odd – let me explain:
There’s a lot of mystical, pseudo-spiritual content out there on the subconscious mind.
This is not that.
The subconscious is the sum of all your brain’s nonconscious information processing.It’s like a supercomputer. That’s it.
Science backs this up: Studies prove the subconscious mind processes vastly more information than the conscious, stores vastly more, sees vastly more, and operates much quicker.
SO WHAT? Spoiler isn’t done yet…
The subconscious is what allows a baseball player to hit a homerun off a 100-mile-per-hour pitch (he’s not calculating mass, force, and trajectory consciously).
It’s what allows a boxer to slip the blistering jab, roll the lethal hook, and respond with a perfect, precise, powerful knockout counterpunch (he’s not planning the combo consciously).
It’s what allows a speaker to respond to a hard question on the spot, in the moment, off the cuff – easily, effectively, eloquently.
If you’re leaning on your conscious mind, you struggle to find words and form arguments – you start to feel nervous… everything is harder than it needs to be.
If you’ve liberated your subconscious, precise and persuasive words come quick, you craft powerful and poignant arguments on the spot, and you feel confident. It’s easy.
In the conscious mode, you grind. In the subconscious mode, you glide.
WHAT? The last spoiler…
This book is about tapping into your subconscious and using it to speak fluently, confidently, and eloquently.
What do you do to make that happen?
You make 7 shifts.
Each one is like debugging a bad program in your psychological software.
You shift from:
Inhibition to freedom – (( this one is the most important ))
Force to flow
You to them
Many to one
Wind to sun – (( this one is based on an ancient fable ))
Confusion to command
Impossible to possible – (( this one is the quickest ))
I’m running out of space here, so unfortunately I can’t spoil anything else.
The book is about how to make those 7 shifts.
They’ve helped me be a more confident, compelling, and effective communicator. I really believe they will help you too.
Thank you for your time. If you do decide to pick up the book, my sincere hope is that it helps you aim higher, achieve more, and have more fun along the way.
Thanks again,
– Peter Daniel Andrei
