Yes, I agree!
Just a reminder: You really only need two things to be successful at your job.
I mean, you can have more, but these two are the key.
You need to be interesting.
And you need to be different.
If you’re interesting but not different you’re probably like every other jock: easily replaceable.
If you’re different but not interesting you’re probably just irritating.
If you’re interesting and different enough, I don’t think you need to worry about holding a listener’s attention longer than 8 seconds as your PD or consultant may be telling you.
Please note that you don’t have to be a comedian so if you’re not actually funny you can stop trying to make me laugh.
Just hold my interest and say what you need to say in a way no other voice I hear can.
It’s not that daunting.
It’s called talent.
