14 months into a narrative

EVERY TIME

Whatever time you have to present, split it in half.

Nor am I. Nor is anybody. That's why it takes 8 months to produce a 90 minute motion picture.

What people want to hear is not always what we want to say, and finding a balance between the two is hard.
In fact, just like every page of a novel, every second of the presentation should be SUPER INTERESTING.

Now you're wondering if I mean like as in just the big presentations? No. I mean every time you speak. We all have to be interesting in every thing we say.

Interesting doesn't mean funny or exciting. It just means the story is moving along.

When it's not, you should not be saying those parts.

Give it a try.

Check your “interesting” level.

And cut the crap that's making you boring.
