Do you know that there are a total of 418 articles written for The Public Speaking Blog since March 2006? Each article contains about an average of 10 insider strategies to help you become more confident and charismatic speakers. And if you were crazy enough to read EVERYTHING here, you would have gained access to over 4180 time-tested speaking tips and tactics that would have cost you a thousands of dollars to acquire. Yet, I realize that most of my revered readers (that includes YOU!) only manage to scrap the surface and read about 10% of what’s written for you. What a shame!

And then I thought about Pareto’s Principle - 80% of the results come from 20% of the efforts and time!

… which led me to wonder what are the 20% of articles here that will give you the most return?

And I thought about all the articles that were published before, for example:

So You Think You Can Make A Singaporean Laugh and Think Purple Cow! which was published in The Toastmaster magazine in June 2008 and May 2007 respectively.

Top 7 Presentation Bloopers To Avoid which was featured on GetEntrepreneurial.com

The Art of Schmoozing which was featured on the Recruit section of Straits Time (my national paper)

And of course 250 Things You Wish You Know That Will Guarantee Your Public Speaking Success which created quite a storm on the web, including a feature in Lifehacker and Digg.com

However, I feel that it is not authentic enough. These articles could have been featured because of the editor’s opinion, not yours.

And so the only way to find out is to ask you.

So here goes.

“Among all the public speaking articles you have read thus far here, which article has provided you with the most value?”

All you got to do is to give me the title and the url in the comments section. I would appreciate it if you can also let me know WHY is that article of most value to you.

As a thank you, I will be giving you the audio copy of the first two chapters of The FAQ Book on Public Speaking worth US$60 for f*ree! The two chapters are:

–> How to overcome your nervousness and stage fright once and for all
–> How to connect with your audience (and keep them excited, engaged and at the edge of their seats)

Do that within the next three days to qualify!

Talk soon,
