The Surprising Secret of Powerful Speakers

Most people think powerful speakers dominate the room with words. The truth is the

opposite. The speakers who command attention, who shift minds, who make entire

audiences lean in are the ones who understand something most people never even notice.

Silence. Not empty space, not awkward gaps, but precision-placed pauses that control

emotion, guide meaning, and amplify authority. And if you've struggled to feel influential

when you speak, the cause is simple. You've been talking too much, too fast,

and too continuously for anyone's mind to lock onto you.
