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.

🚨 South Park didn’t just go scorched earth, they napalmed the narrative.
This week’s episode has Dora the Explorer getting ICE-raided at her own show, then trafficked straight to Mar-a-Lago to give old men massages. That’s right. A kids’ cartoon character ends up massaging a geezer in Trump’s palace of denial.
Kristi Noem shoots a puppy in the opening scene. ICE raids Heaven. Trump, Vance, and Satan rub elbows on Fantasy Island. And when Mr. Mackey sees what’s happening, even he nopes out of the job.
Literally, anything possible in a breaking news driven market environment! Sooner or later, the market will price in all the new changes it has been subjected to and will begin to bounce(even if it ends up being a short term bounce). And at some point, it will begin to once again climb the proverbial 'wall of worry'.
Here's a market scenario worth keeping an eye on going into next week...
Comparing the current market correction and how it could potentially be setting us up in a similar manner to previous corrections, we saw in:
$SPX pullback from Aug/Sept 2024
$SPX pullback from April/May 2024
$SPX pullback from Aug/Sept 2023
We'll see how it goes!
To fill this morning’s gaps, $SPY would have to rally to 555.07 and $QQQ to 468.05. How quickly the gaps get filled -- if at all – gives us an idea of how strong the underlying trend is.
SO there's a prime set up for the upside. It may come in a week or 3 months but IF you can wait for it you CAN see 500-100% in weekly options. Theres are the levels below 👇
$SPX 5800
$TSLA 300
$META 633
IF $META $TSLA $SPX all line up near these levels after this consolidation ends you'll see $TSLA run to 335-340, $META move back to up 670-680 and $SPX set up for 5880. SPX through 5880 can run to 6000.
IF you have a small account, WRITE these numbers down and wait for them. This is a great opportunity to grow an account.
TRADE PLAN for LOTTO Friday 🎲
$SPX defended the 5700 support level today but is still under 5767. Once SPX moves back in the 5767-5800 range The price action can start to look more bullish.
SPX 5770C is best above 5740
$TSLA rejected at 290 today. TSLA needs back through 290 to test test 300,310. Wait for 290 for calls
$NFLX through 990 tomorrow will set up for 1000 test. NFLX above 1000 can run another 20 pts
NFLX 1000C is best above 990
Three Predictions for 3/28: (1) SPX will gap down below 5666--and never fill the gap intra-day. In fact, not until mid-May. (2) at the peak decline, SPX will drop over 100+ pts. (3) it will close at the low of day--bonus point: SPX will gap down 3/31 too. Radio Silent tmrw.
$TSLA at 283 will be the tell. IF it gets back through 283 it'll set up for key resistance at 290.. TSLA can breakout above 290 and test 300 before Delivery numbers next week 📈
On a Friday, 3 years ago, this date, we received a call Johns Hopkins had 2 lungs they were flying to Md. Holly had only finished tests a month earlier qualifying her. Dr. Bush was Holly’s surgeon; he’d done 100 of these procedures. Thank you for your good wishes.
