Recording yourself on video everyday is phenomenal advice. I tried it everyday for a week now and I can see a huge improvement not only in my speaking abilities but in my confidence when talking to people. I think this is the main reason why KZreadrs become so sociable and confident...its because they record themselves almost everyday and learn from their mistakes. Thanks for the video Conor.

12 years later, it's still a phenomenal advice
“Only by speaking, do you turn into a speaker.” This nails the gist of the secret to mastery. Thank you so much!

@@nithin6654 just like what in the video said, try random things, only then you will achieve excellence. People who do something more, even though they are just trying something stupid, will be better in the end than people who only do research--- reading books, looking at other's works---and only practice a little bit.
Great points Conor! I share with my students and in the leadership speeches I have given this idea that you're good at whatever you have done for 10,000 hours that I had learned from an MIT course I had taken! I love your style and depth, glad to subscribe to your channel! Very valuable!!!
I think the "pottery" example was so on point. Making the goal about weight vs quality, enabled the first group to work without the pressure of "perfection". That's such a great trick we can all benefit from.

I liked your comment. You have got a good point. I have to give your credit. "without pressure of perfection" words are right. If you want to be successful, you have to try again and again no matter how hard it is
I'm a Toastmasters member for the last 8 years and this is among the best advice I've ever come across about public speaking.
Away from presentation evaluation,you are such a great teacher sir. This was my first time watching one of your videos,sure, they are great and very useful. watching your videos makes a person not only have spoken but ,have taught conversation skills.
Sunday, 28.04.2024 I will stick to this advise and make a consistent practice until I become the greatest speaker I could be.

Welcome to the rhetorical journey 🙏
10,000 hours of practice can bring you every where.
The pottery class example is the best one I've ever heard about how to get the best results through a learning process. Thank you for sharing.
I'm not really a good speaker but I can say I'm progressing well when I record self video then I listen after, then I try as hard as I can to speak more by choosing a specific topic sometimes randomly especially after reading book(s) . Thank you Conor ❤ to share this wonderful video
That guy is amazing! I will listen to him all day and not get tired.
Thanks Neill for a such good trick to improve speaking.Its a great advice and idea to start with improve speaking.I watched so many video and tried different approaches to improve speaking. But it is one of the great video i have ever seen till now.
This man has class and depth.
A powerful talk that is applicable to more than just improving speaking skills.
i am talkative in the initially after watching this is.. i changed my way of speaking and talking with friends and office mates... thank you very much... we expect much from you...
conor neil sir this was a great advice for me that i found ever to start in front of a pc or a laptop cam as i dont have any cams i usually collect my friends to have fun and i slowly start my topic and by following your tips my friends pay a great attention to me which help to clear my seminar in a smooth way :)
Thanks Conor Neill for your valuable tips for developing personal skills.
man you are great. it's been 12 years since this video posted and you are still more relevant than most of the people out there. thanks for advice surly starting it today

Hey. I'm Joseph Renelle A. Mendoza from 12 - ABM JOBS of Eusebio HIghschool and I'd like to thank you for teaching me these lessons. I've learned from this that the best way to have improvised capabilities and in-depth quick-time analyzed speech is to just simply practice. By consistently submitting myself under the pressure of speech I am able to better myself of it, and become more fluent in the way that I present myself using my words. I've learned that with just experience, even through failure, I can better myself.
I agree! Recording your speaking and watching yourself is the best way to improve your presenting skills. I think it's because when you give yourself feedback, you've got to listen. That's why I have students bring to class their charged smartphones, so I can record them on their phones when they give their presentations. I know that they will go home, look through their apps and photos, and ask themselves, "Am I going to delete this, ignore it, or am I going to watch myself." Those who decide to watch it are headed on their way to becoming great speakers. What do you think?

Conor Neill I was an Anthony Robbins student for years ! I’m in the ministry and I work with addictions and adults with disabilities . I’m going into law enforcement next year . My background is neurolinguistic programming, hypnosis, psycholinguistics , and linguistics. You mentioned in one of my favorite videos you created on speaking about 10, 000 hours to really begin to master an area of any skill set. I truly appreciate your videos ! People have no idea how true that statement about mastery and 10,000 hours is dead on the money ! I’m over 40 years of age ! I’ve been studying these fields since I was 18. I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say - I rarely meet people that really really get into this field you and I love with 100% passion !!! The power of words and our ability to use them is both innate and ironically so new from a perspective of total understanding ! Language acquisition should be the first and last thing we study from out infancy to the highest levels of academic and personal competence ! I salute you for your passion ! Keep doing your thing , we need more teachers of knowledge like you !!! God bless
This video was life changing. I have tears of joy watching it again
Just happened upon Conor tonight. Amazing videos, cant wait to begin the challenge he spoke of.
This is just phenomenal, it's made a difference already. Bravo!
I started practicing after watching this video with my laptop webcam & finding the way to improve on speaking skills .Thanks sir
I've just realized, that i was subconsciously getting better at speaking, while learning, studying English. Yeah, in addition, I'm so passionately curious, and inquisitive to listen to people, to identify who they are, and etc( end of thinking capacity 😂). Passion is contagious. You just have to be doing things you compell!
PRACTICE... PRACTICE.. PRACTICE!! This is really wonderful advise you gave. This advise is so helpful and useful for us. Thank you so much for your entire speech it is great!! Regards Balaji - Sydney - Australia

Thank you so much. I am giving a speech this week and find you very enlightening and helpful.
Mr Conor, Thanks for sharing. I used your guidelines and I delivered an awesome speech...
That smile end of every sentence is awesome 👌
i take this as a sign for me to do it, and will get better every small steps! tysm for this video this is very helpful
Thank you so much Mr Conor. This is really helpful!
Thank you for the reminder to practice, practice and practice more. I will do just that. TY
Thanks Mr. Neil, in the beginning i wasn't sure that you have something to help me with ,in practing ,but i was totally wrong, you are a great speaker .I will apply your method and i hope improve my level. please forgive my written's faults. Thanks sir.
What he said applies to almost everything in life. You don't get muscular with 1 month of training, but if you just keep going and grinding, you'll eventually attain a noticeable change in your body. If you want to get good at a game such as chess, as you play more and more against different players, ultimately you are going to master it. Wise words from this guy. Today's lesson was that no matter how little or big, always put it into the work and take action with what you have learned instead of just watching and reading the same or similar stuff about the subject.
Just felt like letting you know that I've watch this video so many time. I think others have as well.
I'd like to thank you for your helpful contribution , i really appreciate it
I appreciate this video. It made me start talking to the camera every night. It taught me what practice means.
This is a really good advice. Applies to almost everything in life.
Thanks Mr.Neill Conor for this Excellent Video-Dr.B.S.Kovvali.
I find this video very much informative regarding to boost up the speaking skill
Thank you for sharing! Your presentation is spot on!
I'm inspired with this video presentation. I try doing the things to achieve my targets.

wow, i swear that this vid is the best/most helpful vid i have seen in long while Thanks great job man!!
The book that helped and helps me still very much, because of all the tips and tools is: Present Yourself with Power, dare to shine.
Indeed, when the practice becoming perfect, the perfection leads to success. Yes! hard work or smart work yields to profit.
Just did my very first 3min video 😋 Thanks Conor 🙏
Recording yourself and practicing on a daily basis are amazing ways to improve your English.
It is surely a valuable and great talk rich of wisdom.
No filler words in this speech 💯
Thank you for clarifying - that's it's more than just practise.
your videos are outstanding it really evokes feeling to continue working hard.
Thank you so much Conor for sharing your skills. I can't tell you how much your videos have inspired, motivated and helped me.
Glad to see that u actually reply to the comments.. Have just decided to do a 3 mins video a day. You;re my mentor from now on :)
Everyone can improve, but some people are born with the gift of gab.
so awesome a speech, l was held hostage for minutes listening to you Neill thanks
Thank you so freaking much. A brother really appreciates this insight!!
Neil.. I have my interview tomorow and your video has recharged me ... Thank you so so so much.. you are aan absoloutley GEM :) (sorry for misspelled )
I just love thr pottery class example. It's so real, so practical. We only improve by taking action
Thanks for giving me a focus to improve!
thank you very much for the video, i found it very usefull. cheers from Argentina
I have done it myself. Recording yourself on video everyday is phenomenal step. I have seen huge diff
Public speaking is all confidence along with a lot of facts or ideas!
Thanks Conor for such wonderful information...
Awsome conference! I really love the way that he approach the topic , only just do it! Don't thing about making it perfect.
I'm going to do it! thanks for your advice and video. watching you gives me the confidence I need that I can do anything I truly practice enough.
Thanks Mr. Neill! . love your channel
yr talking is so nice n crystal clear..
Your are Outstanding..Conor......You are one of the best i have ever seen...Thanks for your video..
thanks a lot sir, the video is very inspiring and helpful especially for the beginners.. keep uploading such great videos ..it was a pleasure watching u..the best i cud fetch from youtube :)
Mr. Cornor, I am very grateful to you as I found the missing link. I have been listening, reading, for more than nearly 3 years ( all famous motivational speakers Jim Rohn, Les Brown, Brian Tracey, Jack Canfiled, Bob Proctor, Tony Robbins, Ian Harvey, Zig Ziglar, Nepolean Hill etc. and their books ) and hardly attempted to follow this simple rule, you just mentioned in this video. Now I know what I need to do, going to apply this rule daily. I know I can do it. Prior listening to this video, I was randomly searching the motivational videos and was very indecisive. But your video gave me the direction. Big thanks to you, I am writing you name in my diary..as your video is the turning point of my life and would remember today's date 20th May 2016 23:50PM.

@@muhammadroshanmughees1586 Of course it worked if he stuck with it. if you put time into any skill in life you can learn it. no kid rode a bike on their first time, they practiced. same thing applies for this, writing, learning a new language whatever the case may be if you want to improve you need to invest the time into it, have critical thinking and improve where you lack.
This made me think learning everything skills in this perspective.
Very Inspiring Cornor, I would really love to get trained by you in speaking
You have 100 followers but your viewing so many people watched that and mean as people to know how correctly speaking in your life, listen this you will give many skills and experience that be a great in a conversation!
wow. the Teacher's voice is great and very easy to listen to these videos
Great......hats off to you.... you gave me spiritual power to heal the shyness. Thank you Sir
Thank you for your great sharing teacher.
Nice video on how to improve your speaking. Thanks Conor.
I follow you Conor from Aden South Yemen. You are a great man .. You’re speaking the truth and your advices are really inspiring. I hope you all the success in life. accept my best regards 🍀. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😇😇😇😇
i'm so blazed, I don't even know how I got to this video.. I watched the whole thing though, I even smoked another big fat bong right near the end & I gotta say, that ending was pretty superb, he put a good point into perspective well. I feel like I should start learning the guitar & playing it a little each day so after 20 years I'll be awesome at it. Lifting is the thing everyone should start doing & consistently though :p
THank you Sir Conor Neill
your videos are absolutely great sir...
Depends on setting, what you want from speech + intention
thank you Sir, I really apreciate your video
I M FROM INDIA Thank you very much Sir, you gave me some of the video and i do regularly practise
excellent tips,,i really need to improve my speaking skills.this will help.thanks
The point about putting in the time is really true, I observed it when I saw Usain Bolt interviewed about his training and it turns out just minor things that he doesnt do once lead to him not winning. Its not his insane gift but really the work he does to use it
