La vie est un défi à relever, un bonheur à mériter, une aventure à tenter.

[CyrilXBT @cyrilXBT]

A MIT professor gave a 1-hour lecture in 2019 that has 18 million views.

He died 5 months after recording it.

It was his final gift to the world.

Patrick Winston taught at MIT for 50 years.

The smartest engineers on earth sat in his classroom.

And he spent his last lecture teaching them the one skill their degrees never covered.

How to speak.

15 lessons that will change how you communicate forever:

Never open with a joke. Your audience is not ready to laugh yet. Open with a promise of what they will know by the end.

Your ideas are like your children. You are too close to them. What is obvious to you is invisible to everyone else. Explain the obvious.

The 5-minute rule: the first 5 minutes of any talk determine whether people will listen for the next 55. Spend more time on your opening than anything else.

Repeat your most important idea 3 times in 3 different ways. Once is never enough.

Build a fence around your idea. Tell people what it is NOT before you tell them what it IS.

Verbal punctuation. Pause. Let the idea land before moving to the next one.

Ask questions nobody will answer. Then wait 7 seconds. The silence is not awkward. It is processing.

Never read your slides. Your audience can read. They cannot listen and read simultaneously.

Use the board not the slides. Writing forces you to slow down. Slowing down forces clarity.

Inspire before you inform. Nobody learns from someone they are not inspired by.

End with a contribution not a summary. Tell them what you gave them. Not what you said.

Never say thank you at the end. It is weak. End with something that lands.

Stories make ideas stick. Data makes ideas understood. You need both. In that order.

The quality of your communication determines the quality of your ideas in the eyes of the world. Not the ideas themselves.

Practice is not preparation. Practice IS the skill.

Patrick Winston understood something most people spend their entire careers missing.

Your ideas are only as powerful as your ability to transfer them into someone else's mind.

You can be the smartest person in the room and be completely invisible.

Or you can master communication and make average ideas feel like breakthroughs.

He chose to spend his last lecture teaching this.

Watch it tonight.

«LA FILLE LA PLUS CHER DU SUD DU SOUDAN

Rencontrez Athiak Dau Riak, une fille de 19 ans du sud-soudanais, dont le mariage a attiré l'attention cette semaine. Debout à une impressionnante hauteur de 7 pieds, elle est devenue le centre d'une histoire virale. Deux hommes de différentes communautés se disputent sa main dans le mariage, avec une offre de 105 vaches et 65 millions de livres soudanais du sud (20,000 $).

La dot de l'autre prétendant n'est pas encore divulguée, mais des rumeurs suggèrent qu'elle pourrait être aussi élevée que 350 vaches, ainsi que des cadeaux supplémentaires comme une Toyota V6 et une maison de quatre pièces autonome pour la famille d'athiak.

Dans la culture Dinka, le mariage transcende seulement la cour et la beauté. Il dépend du caractère, de l'arrière-plan familial et d'une ardoise propre. Une fois que ces critères sont remplis, les familles lancent des discussions, et si la fille est jugée attirante, plusieurs prétendants peuvent émerger, ce qui conduit à des négociations concurrentielles.

@jacquestorres @WendyWilliams If everyone on TV could be as Wendy, there will be less depression and complex in people. We will be accepting our body and who we are, be less sad about what’s changing in us physically, and care more about what to do to be a better person and Make people around us happier.
