Do you talk funny? : 7 comedy habits to become a better (and funnier) public speaker / by Nihill, David,author.(CARDINAL)412515;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 165-171)"Public speaking can be terrifying. For David Nihill, the idea of standing in front of an audience was scarier than cliff jumping into a thorny pit of spiders and mothers-in-law. Without a parachute or advanced weaponry. Something had to change. In what doesn't sound like the best plan ever, David decided to overcome his fears by pretending to be a comedian called "Irish Dave" for one full year, crashing as many comedy clubs, festivals, and shows as possible. One part of the plan was at least logical: he was already Irish and already called Dave. In one year, David went from being deathly afraid of public speaking to hosting a business conference, regularly performing stand-up comedy and winning storytelling competitions in front of packed houses. And he did it by learning from some of the best public speakers in the world: stand-up comedians. Do You Talk Funny?: 7 Comedy Habits to Become a Better (and Funnier) Public Speaker shows how the key principles of stand-up comedy can be applied to your speaking engagements and presentations to make you funnier, more interesting, and better looking. (Or at least two of the three.) Whether you are preparing for a business presentation, giving a wedding toast, defending your thesis, raising money from investors, or simply want to take on something you're afraid of, this book will take you from sweaty to stage-ready. You'll learn how to: - Craft a story and content that your audience will want to listen to - Find the funniest parts of your material and how to get to them faster - Deal with stage fright - Master the two most important parts of your performance: timing and delivery Ten percent of the author's proceeds from this book will go to Arash Bayatmakou via Help Hope Live until he is fully back on his feet and thereafter to one of the many facing the same challenges after suffering a severe spinal cord injury.

The sunny nihilist : a declaration of the pleasure of pointlessness / by Syfret, Wendy,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Today, what is most important to society? A successful career, a perfectly curated Instagram account, a 10-step skin care routine? If all of these things are meant to make us feel safe and happy, why does this generation remain defined by stress, burn out, and obsessive individuality? Award-winning writer Wendy Syfret examines why these achievements have not made us happy and asks readers to consider a touch of something completely different: nihilism. The notion that using a philosophy of 'life is meaningless' to find a new happiness may sound contradictory, however Syfret's application of upbeat nihilism may offer absolution of society's constant struggle to keep up with work, love, and religion. Nihilism dismantles our self-care and self-centered wayof living and instead asks readers to consider the alternative as a better solution to our obsessive individuality: everything in our world means nothing. Freed from the burden of meaning, we can simply enjoy our lives and build more pleasant societies for each other. Syfret's way of examining a traditionally pessimistic concept of living will redefine what we place importance on-and end up happier because of it"--Stop trying to make everything a thing -- A new kind of nihilism -- The myth of meaningful work -- Following your heart (into the void) -- Life after God -- The dark side of nihilism -- Sunny nihilism for everyday life -- The pleasure of pointlessness.
