Authenticity - Insights From a Motivational Speaker

Let's be clear. You have no right to deliver a motivational talk unless you have 100% conviction in your message. Why? Because you are asking people to give up their two most precious resources: time and attention. You need to have thought and lived and breathed your message before you go on stage. Now if someone questions your message you are unshakeable. So you maintain your authenticity and impact through all the work you do BEFORE you step on stage.
