You Are What You Watch

Just because you watch the Food Network doesn’t make you a good cook. But if you truly have a passion for food and cooking, then watching the Food Network from time to time may inspire you to try new and exciting dishes in your own kitchen.

Similarly, if you have a passion for good speaking, you may become even more inspired by watching some of the great speeches of all time on the Silver Screen.

Here are some of my all-time favorite speeches from movies. I would highly recommend that you watch any or all of them to seek inspiration and enjoyment (video and audio clips of all of the movie speeches below can be viewed at http://www.americanrhetoric.com)

Citizen Kane—“Citizen Kane Campaigns For Governor”

Field of Dreams—“People Will Come”

Jerry Maguire—“Flipper”

Network—“Mad As Hell”

Nixon—“Nixon Concedes California”

Patton—“Address to the Third Army”

Wall Street—“Greed Is Good”

As you become a better speaker, you may also find yourself savoring better speeches, wherever you find them—even in the movies. I’d urge to you collect good speeches anywhere and everywhere. Then, replay them often for inspiration and to give you ideas on what you what to emulate. If you listen to trivial music lyrics over and over again, why not listen and watch speeches you love.

If you have speeches from movies that motivate you, let me know. Send your movie speech recommendations to me at tj@mediatrainingworldwide.com
