3 分钟Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches.
At Yale, she will take you through.
The latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, she's tackling topics that affect her own life, like stress, perfectionism, and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those.
Or if it sounds like you could.

We've all been in the situation where you have something important to contribute to a meeting or a presentation and you just don't know how to insert your thoughts.
How do I get my idea out there?
And once I do, how do I make it clear and concise?
Today I will explore specific techniques and tips you can use to be more effective when you need to contribute your ideas in a presentation or meeting.
My name is Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
And welcome to a quick thinks episode.
Of Think Fast, Talk Smart, the podcast.
Based on the work I have done as a lecturer at the GSB, as well as in my consulting practice, there are some specific techniques and tools you can use to insert your ideas in a conversation, a meeting, or even a presentation.
The three best tools that I am aware of are to start with a paraphrase.
When somebody is speaking and you want to contribute, you can simply interject a paraphrase, capture something that they have said.
