There is NO way you can improve your public speaking skills unless you get out there to speak! Just like swimming, you will never be able to master it just by reading a book. Granted that the book may offer you a comprehensive guide to 101 swimming techniques or over 200 dos and don’ts of swimming, but you will never master swimming until your feet touches water. Ask any experts and coaches, they will tell you the same thing. You got to get your hands dirty before you learn anything. This applies to any skills you want to pick up too. I would recommend that you read Scott Young’s insightful entry on Learn by Doing which pretty much says it all. [...] [...] Ok let’s be honest.

Of course you need to display your own ability to judge and evaluate any personal development skill in your own life. I think that only through doing can we go from an intellectual understanding of a concept to the skill of applying it in our own life. Thanks for the comments Josh.

I've often said that personal development is a hands on project. To many folks seem to think that a particular book, audio program, or seminar is going to magically be the life changer for them. Certainly the information learned can be, but that will depend greatly on the extent to which the person in question can apply what they've learned, expand on it whenever possible, and of course in some instances be willing to disregard what doesn't quite do it for them or their personal situation. Again, thanks for the good food for thought you shared... All the best, Josh Hinds :-) Scott, you’ve got some ideas that are right on in this article.

I have always said a good personal development book is like a map. It will tell you what roads to take, the direction to go, how to get there...but YOU have to do the driving!
