I was listening to a podcast of Jim Rohn and he was talking about the characteristics of a high performance person. In this podcast, I will be describing some characteristics of a high performance person.

CHARACTERISTICS OF  A HIGH PERFORMANCE PERSON

En los últimos meses, ha aparecido un personaje que habita cerca de las costas españolas y que se ha hecho muy popular en las redes sociales. Su nombre es Gladis y es una orca. La razón por la cual se ha convertido en un fenómeno mediático es el número de interacciones que ha tenido con barcos cerca del estrecho de Gibraltar.

第5話　PTAの憂鬱（ゆううつ）

A leitura de hoje nos faz pensar sobre a sociedade de consumo a qual fazemos parte e somos atravessados, um texto do século passado que ainda hoje ressoa forte em nosso cotidiano. Na crônica Eu sei, mas não devia escrita pela autora Marina Colasanti para o Jornal do Brasil em 1972 nos faz lembrar de como deixamos nossas vidas serem pouco a pouco enquadradas dentro de rotinas e repetições que nos distanciam da beleza do agora. Ler as palavras de Marina é vislumbrar o capitalismo como um comedor de tempo, de mente, de corpos, de mundos. Espero que goste de ouvir tanto quanto gostei de ler. 

Ah! Ao final preparei um vocabulário com algumas palavras e expressões que surgiram na crônica. 

Tenha uma boa escuta!

Espero no enrollarme como una persiana y ya que siempre me gusta hablar sin tapujos y sin pelos en la lengua voy a ir al grano en este audio-artículo. En realidad, me la trae al pedo si lo leen cuatro gatos o al contrario, si se pone hasta los botes de comentarios, pero este tema es tan importante como útil.

An impromptu speech  refers to a presentation delivered with little to no prior preparation. Often called "speaking off the cuff," it requires the speaker to think on their feet and effectively communicate ideas on a given topic with minimal notice. Impromptu speeches can arise in various situations, including:

Meetings: Brainstorming sessions, project updates, or responding to questions from colleagues can all turn into impromptu speaking opportunities.

Client Interactions: A chance meeting with a potential client or answering unexpected questions during a presentation might necessitate impromptu remarks.

Networking Events: Making a strong first impression often involves conversing and sharing ideas on the spot.
While lacking the polish of a prepared speech, impromptu presentations offer several benefits:

Authenticity: Speaking without a script can project genuine enthusiasm and passion for the topic.

Adaptability: Impromptu speeches allow you to tailor your message to the audience's interests or address emerging issues.

Thinking Skills: They challenge your critical thinking and communication skills on the fly.
Here are some tips for delivering successful impromptu speeches:

Take a Breath: A brief pause allows you to collect your thoughts and formulate a response.

Start with a Strong Opening: Grab attention with a relevant anecdote, statistic, or question.

Focus on Key Points: Organize your thoughts around a central message and a few supporting points.

Use Clear Language: Avoid jargon and speak in a concise and confident manner.

End Gracefully: Summarize your main points and conclude with a call to action or impactful statement.

By honing your impromptu speaking skills, you can become a more effective communicator and build trust with colleagues, clients, and potential partners in the business world.
