My Secret Is Out In The Open…

That’s right… the book you are seeing (below) has been a secret project for the past two months. It has been excruitiating for me to keep it a secret since I had so much fun creating it. The wait has been an arduous but worthy one. And I’m thrilled to finally be able to introduce to you my secret project — “The FAQ Book on Public Speaking”.

So what inspired me to write this book?

It all started with an email sent by my current partner Andrew when he chanced upon an article about me on Straits Time. (Recall Straits Time Top 25 Alternate Achievers under 25 in Oct 2006) He wrote me a whooping 53 page proposal on how we can leverage on my speaking skills to impact more people. Part of the plan was to write a book and viola, after months of planning and conceptualizing, The FAQ Book on Public Speaking was birthed!

What triggered the creation of the FAQ book was the stunningly lack of quality books on public speaking. We have friends who read truckloads of public speaking books but they never attain the success they wanted! I believe you felt the same way too right?

It boils down to one simple reason. These books were simply - pardon my frankness - USELESS! They give you advice that are absolutely lame. For example in one of the “public speaking” books, we found this advice on overcoming stage fright – be yourself! And I was like “Huh? How exactly do you be yourself? Do you even know who you are in the first place??!!”

Some books even make you browse through 137 pages of crap before finding a paragraph that vaguely answers to your question…

Public speaking is already hard enough and we don’t have to make it any harder.

So Andrew and I set off to find an answer to this pressing problem. And it started with first asking one question:

“If you get to spend one hour with a world class speaker, for a one-on-one consultation on public speaking, what would you ask?”

I am sure you remember this question right? See entry: Tell Me, What Would You Ask?

Within a month, we have people from all around the world – as far as Ukraine – sending us their burning questions. Till date, we have about 267 questions and still counting. We even had to hire a temp staff to help us compile these questions.

Once the questions were compiled, the rest became easy.

The overwhelming response also proves one thing – there is a phenomenal number of distressed speakers who are looking for answers to help them overcome their fear of speaking and make them stars for their next presentation. The FAQ Book on Public Speaking is our solution to their problem.
