1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,640
Are you struggling to keep your audience hooked?
2
00:00:01,641 --> 00:00:03,641
Well, you're probably missing the details
3
00:00:03,642 --> 00:00:05,381
that can make or break your presentation.
4
00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:06,840
And I'm about to show you what they are.
5
00:00:06,841 --> 00:00:09,161
I'm doing an 11 part video series on mastering storytelling
6
00:00:09,162 --> 00:00:10,841
to influence anyone, anywhere.
7
00:00:10,842 --> 00:00:12,101
And this is lesson number,
8
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,420
making your story memorable.
9
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,400
Unfortunately, too many stories are forgotten because they're vague
10
00:00:17,401 --> 00:00:20,001
or even overloaded with irrelevant information.
11
00:00:20,002 --> 00:00:22,801
The key is choosing the details that actually matter,
12
00:00:22,802 --> 00:00:23,841
which helps your message stick.
13
00:00:23,842 --> 00:00:26,441
We've talked a lot about emotionally connecting with people,
14
00:00:26,442 --> 00:00:28,081
but without the right details,
15
00:00:28,082 --> 00:00:29,881
your story won't stay with the audience
16
00:00:29,882 --> 00:00:32,401
or even let alone they won't know what to do with information.
17
00:00:32,402 --> 00:00:34,761
The details you choose can make or break your story.
18
00:00:34,762 --> 00:00:36,481
Too many and you lose people.
19
00:00:36,482 --> 00:00:38,961
Too few and the message just fades away.
20
00:00:38,962 --> 00:00:42,241
Strategic detail is that balance that brings your story to life.
21
00:00:42,242 --> 00:00:44,841
Go back and think of a movie or a book that you absolutely love.
22
00:00:44,842 --> 00:00:46,161
It's the vivid detail
23
00:00:46,162 --> 00:00:48,561
that make you feel like you were part of that story.
24
00:00:48,562 --> 00:00:50,341
There's power in that detail.
25
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:51,720
Do it right. And the reason for that
26
00:00:51,721 --> 00:00:55,041
is that details create the sensory experience for your audience.
27
00:00:55,042 --> 00:00:56,321
They can see, hear,
28
00:00:56,322 --> 00:00:59,801
and even feel the story. That's what makes it memorable.
29
00:00:59,802 --> 00:01:01,121
So here's today's tool.
30
00:01:01,122 --> 00:01:03,961
I want you to add one or two vivid details to your new story.
31
00:01:03,962 --> 00:01:04,841
So instead of just saying,
32
00:01:04,842 --> 00:01:06,521
we had a great time, say
33
00:01:06,522 --> 00:01:07,361
the sun was setting
34
00:01:07,362 --> 00:01:09,521
and We cast this beautiful orange glow across the lake,
35
00:01:09,522 --> 00:01:12,361
and we were laughing so hard that our sides were hurting.
36
00:01:12,362 --> 00:01:13,641
When you use that level of detail,
37
00:01:13,642 --> 00:01:15,321
your story becomes more than just words.
38
00:01:15,322 --> 00:01:18,841
It becomes a shared experience that your audience will engage in.
39
00:01:18,842 --> 00:01:20,001
And again, remember,
40
00:01:20,002 --> 00:01:21,841
in Lesson 8, we're gonna break down
41
00:01:21,842 --> 00:01:25,061
how to use tension and resolution in storytelling
42
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,220
to keep your audience on the edge of their seats.
