How real presence and impact are created when speaking
Are you still alone?
Or are you already speaking to people?
This question determines your presence, your impact – and your performance skills.
Many speak.
But inwardly they remain in monologue.
The invisible mistake during the performance
While you are presenting, an internal commentary is often running:
- I hope I’m not forgetting anything.
- How do I look right now?
- Is my voice stable?
You speak your lines.
But not the people.
And your audience senses that immediately.
What happens in the monologue
If you stay with yourself:
- your breath becomes shallow
- your voice becomes narrower
- your body becomes firm
- your gaze loses presence
You want to appear confident.
But real impact doesn’t come from control.
But from contact. 🔥
🔄 The turning point for more presence
The crucial question is not: “Am I doing this right?“
But rather: “Am I in a relationship right now?”
The moment you really make contact:
- your voice becomes freer
- your speech clearer
- your effect noticeably stronger
You switch from monologue to dialog.
And that’s where real presence arises.
For your next performance
Don’t ask yourself: Was I good?
Ask yourself: Was I in touch?
Because your impact follows your presence.
And your presence is created through dialog.
