A Cup of Coffee to Presenting Your Coolness

  • 0 min read

As Seth Godin would say, “if you want to be seen as different, then you actually have to be different.”

If you really want to stand out – really want to differentiate yourself from the competition and solidify your personal brand of coolness – you have to step it up a notch when presenting your unbelievably awesome, complex ideas.

Say good-by to the same old

And that means saying goodbye to the same-old-same-old Power Point presentation.  Don’t get me wrong – Power Point is an invaluable tool and completely appropriate for almost any business situation.

But it’s linear.  And your ideas are multifaceted.  Isn’t there a way (outside of interpretive dance) to present your ideas in a 3-dimensional manner – just like they appear in your head?

Skip to…Prezi, the zooming presentation editor.

Creating a Prezi presentation allows your audience to see your overall story line, and follow along with the components of each point.  Plus – it’s just totally cool looking.

You can keep it private or make it public to the world.  You can even embed your Prezi into your blog.  Like this:

The hardest part of having a difficult parent is not always what they did — sometimes it is how normal you became at pretending it did not hurt

The air you breathe has likely passed through forests, oceans, animals, cities, fires, storms, and other people before reaching you, which means every breath is less private than it feels and more like borrowing from the whole planet

Thought of the day from psychologist Daniel Goleman: “If you don’t have self-awareness and are not able to manage your distressing emotions, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far.”
