Nothing Happens By Accident

I like public speaking. It's one of my passions. When I started, I made tons of mistakes. I said many "ums," made lots of grammatical errors. My stage posture was anything but correct. I had no vocal variety and sometimes lacked projection. In other words, I wasn’t loud enough. That was two years ago. What did I do to improve? Well, the first thing was not to give up. Then I started watching speeches on YouTube by renowned speakers, observing how they did it. I used these "notes" when I went on stage. After two years, my oratory skills have become fantastic. I mean, I’m not the best in the world, for sure, but I feel so at ease that everything flows when I’m speaking. Have you listened to the episode "My Story"? There, you can hear my story. If it weren’t for my story, my journey, my battles, I would never have created this podcast or become a better person. One thing certain, nothing comes by accident

Lessons From Madeira Island: Nothing Happens by Accident

Last Monday, at the end of the day, I was watching a news program that I have loved for a long time: 60 Minutes. It’s a program that is essentially a storyteller. And what fantastic stories it has! In that episode, they talked about a medical scientist, a neurosurgeon who, through a non-invasive technique, “cured,” or rather, stopped the progression of Parkinson's disease. All this through the use of high-frequency ultrasounds that “straighten the person.” Also in that episode, they talked about a case where the doctor managed to make a drug-addicted person become “cured.” They even spoke with this person, asking if he had relapsed or if he was truly clean. I was simply amazed. At the point that science has reached. Since I am a dreamer, I immediately began to imagine scenarios where we could use this to cure many of the world's problems. This could revolutionize the world. The way we can live our daily lives. would be living in a better world?

From the US & Them Here It is The Secret of Success

Have you ever noticed that the wealthiest people in the world are excellent communicators? In the Netflix documentary about Donald Trump, it was said that many of his clients came in with a preconceived idea, and after talking with Trump, they ended up buying what he wanted them to buy. Okay, you can say he's manipulative. Let me give you another example. Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group. In 1985, Sir Richard Branson began running marketing campaigns that were totally different from what was being done at that time, just to put the Virgin name in every corner of the world. I'm not saying I have to ride in a hot air balloon at 250 mph between Japan and the Canadian Arctic, breaking the time record just to get my message across. No! Much simpler and less exhausting than that. Just like Shakespeare conveys in his sonnet "The memory of his beloved's love is so powerful that it makes him feel as though he possesses..". So, I just have to use my strengths

If They Only Knew: Confessions of an Anger Person

Jesus said: Give to everyone who asks you, and if they take what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others what you want them to do to you.” How is this possible? Well, this was put into practice by Diane Foley. And who is Diane Foley? She is the mother of James Foley. James Foley was killed by ISIS in 2014, decapitated, with the video filmed and posted on YouTube. The terrorist who killed, or was involved in the murder of James Foley, was known within the terrorist group as “The Beatle,” because he was English, but his name is Alexander. Diane went to meet him to get to know him and talk to him. She reconciled with the man Alexander Kotey. How is this possible? Could I do it? Could you, my listener, do it?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
