It's not about you

Fellow speaker,

When you are speaking remember your speech is not about you...it's there for your audience.  Mention your audience directly in your speech in the middle of your stories to get them to internalize the story and put themselves in it.  For example, "Have you ever felt alone and unwanted?  I mean really depressed?  Me too.  I was..."

In the story,

Tim
