Actually, I’ve noticed that I’m comfortable now with the sound of my voice after having created several voice recordings of myself talking about philosophical ideas that I spend entertaining in my mind with my inner monologue. I figured: I already talk to myself in my mind, why not just talk aloud about it? And thus, I’ve indirectly accustomed myself to my own voice. That’s accidentally hitting two birds with one stone!

@jack jack Sliding in here; having the confidence to speak in public without fear is different from knowing they can speak in public without fear. I assume they haven't tested it yet, hence the former choice of words. As for OP knowing they can speak well, I assume they came to this conclusion through the 2-month compilation of videos they took of themselves per the instruction of the short. To elucidate further, they likely tweaked their outward self-presentation every day to the point they removed what they deem embarrassing tics. As for me, supposing OP meant his comment, congratulations from an internet stranger! I'm glad you now have the confidence for public speaking.

This video is so short but it can make a big improvement in your speaking skill. I know it because I attended to quite many public speaking courses. And most of them told me video-record myself speaking, take notes and improve. You guys should bookmark or somehow download this short to your phone and computer. Trust me. It's enough for you to get started and move ahead.
I've actually done that a few times today and I couldn't believe how fast I improved in just a few videos. Before I was timid, low use of body language and used "uhm" annoyingly much lol. Now i Freaking realised that I have a personality when I feel confident and enjoy the process of discovery of who I am by seeing how others precieve me in reality. Thank you so much dudebro 🌐🌟

If you live on your own, well you have the full freedom to do anything and everything so go for it and don't think too much. No matter your situation, listen to your inner needs in life and follow the path of your own choosing.

Just dance and sing even if you don't know how, it's just for fun and for yourself to let go of all the pressure in your body. Film yourself doing weird voices or pretend to be your favorite character, be as exegerated possible! This helps you be more comfortable doing normal stuff like carrying a conversation in a video. Then follow what the guy said in this short. Make a video of yourself speaking about random stuff or your favorite topics. Only listen to your voice and then only look at yourself in your video and see what you can improve. Then the next video talk about what you could improve more in your body language and speech patterns and directly practice that. Then make another video speaking about the same topic you picked, but this time you are able to do it better. Repeat speaking about that topic until you are satisfied and move on to the next topic you want to speak about. You can do it standing, sitting or just any weird position. The most important thing is not to think about it like a school lesson, but more like a super fun learning experience you've done for yourself. Your future self will thank you!

Once, I said not much to a friend for her annoying words, opinions, complaints, voice, speed and pitch. I just said truly from the heart, "Hey, have you ever tried to record your voice while talking about anything and hear it? If never, try. It's a therapy."
I had a speech impediment that was noticeable until grade 8 when I joined the debating team. Writing down and practicing speeches really helped. It's been several years, so I've slipped back into it. Just did the video because small amounts of practice do wonders.

Just started seeing your stuff. Opinion from a coach, youth coach, team building coach, and public speaker. Content is on point! Love it!
It's been a journey for me. After years of voice over I was able to overcome my speech impediment. I've had some bad voice overs and good ones, it's taken me awhile to figure out how I should sound. It's the audience that helps point out when I sound weird or not.
You know what’s funny? I saw this video months ago and I wrote this down as an exercise I need to do and I thought about how I was going to do it with some fancy shmancy video recording equipment and I still haven’t done it because I haven’t made the time to set it all up and go through the steps carefully in high quality and then I was watching this again just now and I realized he said “phone” was the recording device he had in mind…. Often times in life our biggest obstacle is ourselves.
My anxiety is really just this guy looping this speech in my head.
Oh my Lord so many must do this. I learn this though my acting and improvisation classes at The Second City back in Chicago, five years with Jo Forsberg, and I worked for her so I got additional information. I learned to play like children do, no judgement and in the moment, not act.
THIS IS BRILLIANT.
His voice is amazing!
The first time I saw this video it became clear that this is the best and most rapid route to transformation. I recorded a video on my notes app and it was painful to watch, I couldn’t take notes. Now, a few months after that experience I find your advice again. Probably it’s a sign 😅
These video recordings are powerful enough to make our voice and enhance our senses (listen, view and voice) to the best. I felt that I was speaking bad but later i realised I was not aware of how I was speaking everyday, that's the key. I was wrongly assumed I was speaking low or bad instead of no idea how I was speaking, sound look like, body language etc. Aware of how i am speaking to everyone is a main part in improving the ' how ' part of speaking better in everyday terms. These techniques can help. I am still trying. Let's see in future.
I've seen just 3-4 shorts of this guy and I'm impressed
I speak amazingly. I love listening to myself.
Thank you so much for this. Really helped a lot 🧘🏾♂️
I learned to speak by being a quality systems auditor, in a field where my words could close the factory that day. It is stressful for the company visited, so filler words will lose the customer, potentially enraging them. Also, body language can do the same.
You are really a gift from God
„It‘s how you look and sound“ has major Kramer vibes.

The razor’s edge of improving yourself or causing anxiety. I don’t like to think that the weak fail and only the strong succeed. Learn how to manipulate. That’s all it is.
