The Power of Your Voice

Have you ever listened to famous speakers?

They all speak in a special way. All had developed over time some characteristics. Often they speak louder than necessary when you count in the technical tools they use. This is called POWER VOICE. Most of them acquired the habit to use more tension than necessary to speak clearly and loud.

This shall show the power within their messages. After a while they develop hoarseness. You can hear that when listen to Tony Robbins. This is a pity as it lowers their possibilities to get their message across.

A public speaking skill YOU really need to hone is THE POWER of YOUR VOICE. The value lies within knowing how to use THE POWER of YOUR VOICE in a powerful and sustainable way. As a speaker YOUR VOICE is your most valuable public speaking instrument. String instruments and your voice develop a better and richer sound and character over time when you care about them. Care about YOUR VOICE and increase its value.

You know what, with some little twist you can learn to develop YOUR VOICE POWER while caring about improving it ongoing. When you are a speaker YOUR VOICE is your most important asset to execute YOUR MESSAGE to YOUR AUDIENCE.

Care about YOUR VOICE POWER anytime when you use YOUR VOICE and when you rest it.

You need some willpower and dedication to break with your habitual way to use your voice. THE RIGHT IDEAS, practice and self-discipline to change the way you speak. When you aim high THE BEST YOU CAN DO is honing your voice while keeping it healthy.

For you as speaker YOUR VOICE IS EVERYTHING!

The other thing famous speaker use is their pace. They often speak so fast that you hardly follow them. You have to listen to the same content over and over again. That is for purpose. When you are listening three times to the same it really sits in your mind and develops further.

The risk is getting breathless and harming YOUR VOICE when speaking fast and loud. With a bit of training that is to solve. an organist trains years and years to master the organ. The better the air is flowing through the pipes the better the sound.  The better you breathe the more you are improving YOUR VOICE VARIETY and its SOUND.

Mastering THE ART OF PUBLIC SPEAKING is only possible when MASTERING USING YOUR VOICE and some other valuable skills.

Watch how people stand, sit and move. You almost see the connection between their poise and voice. When you learn to perceive what is going on in your body right away you gain a valuable tool to change things right away. Your audience hardly perceives what you do secretly. Would that be helpful to know how you can do that?

The tricky thing is to learn it. YOUR PERCEPTION and judgement must be as sharp and reliable as possible when you want to TRAIN YOUR VOICE in a sustainable way. You have to practice, practice and practice the new way to use it while getting rid of the habits that limit your possibilities to develop your voice further. That is some work. It is the best basic for using your voice with all its features.

YOUR VOICE is deeply connected to your personality, thoughts and feelings. You can hear the feelings in the voice of others, when they are sad, happy, melancholic or excited. So others hear that in your voice too. That is why voice trainings are helpful to some extend. HOLISTIC VOICE TRAINING also changes your thoughts and feelings. When you say something nice from heart you can feel the comfortable vibration of love resonating in you. Discovering what you want and do from heart is part of training your voice.

Actors train years and years to gain the highest possible control of their voice. They are trained to show feelings a character they play has. It is exhausting to do it that way. The risk in it is ending up playing round the clock and ignoring who they are.

The very best is to combine voice training with developing your perception and personality at the same time. That way you develop an authentic style to present your message. When you are authentic speaking in the right tone is easy and comforting you. When you speak with love from heart your voice develops healing quality.

The combination I prefer to learn and practice mastering a skill is a playful way. Having a lot of fun learning and practicing facilitates applying it to your daily tasks. Who has time to schedule one hour a day for each skill to train? Cut down the learning hours by learning and applying efficient and effectively what you want to master. Efficient and effective learning includes educating your whole personality.

When shifting your focus a bit you are increasing the learning curve. Any tiny little change increases your learning the way you want when done purposeful. That is fun as you have plenty opportunities to do so. Any situation any moment you learn something and enhancing the POWER WITHIN YOU.

As you know the POWER WITHIN YOU is hear able in YOUR VOICE right away. The more you discover and develop your POWER WITHIN YOU the stronger THE POWER of YOUR VOICE. The more you play using YOUR POWER WITHIN YOU the more playful you can be on stage. The more playful you are the more you can play with YOUR VOICE and YOUR AUDIENCE. The more fun you have the more fun your audience has.

Have FUN delivering YOUR MESSAGE to the world.
