Re-framing....

Recently I watched "The Secret" again with a friend of mine. Through out the movie she and I were talking, sharing our thoughts. I told her how some people reacted negatively to the film saying "This is nothing new." It's true. Nothing in The Secret is revolutionary or brand new. It has been around for centuries (in fact they point that out in the movie). The message is simply re-framed, repackaged in a new way.

How might you be able to re-frame your speech. Are you coming at a story from a typical angle? Can you think about it from a different perspective? Think about how your speech, your story, your presentations might be able to be repackaged in a new way that stands out from the rest.
