RE: TRUMP - one truly good conversation

in #writing6 years ago

Thank you, I take this compliment gladly. Especially for the refreshing part, as it was intended to see the message while smiling.

You nailed it. Shortly after T.s election I wrote a loooong article on my other blog, which was more of a reflective exercise for me where I said that people create the evil and like to have a visible character to project on it in order to avoid looking at the own shadow. Yes, it's a huge media effort and it works quite well. Fortunately not for everyone buys it. It's just not that sounding and therefore people could think that sanity does not have strength.

HaHa! Yes, in my counseling I often deal with place holders, in fact, you can take "Trump" and substitute with any other bad name which comes to mind ("my boss", "my colleagues", "my ex-wife" etc.) - During a session I go through many stages where I judge inwardly, recognize this, say goodbye to it and turn to what strengthens and encourages my client instead of confirming his supposed powerlessness. Mostly, it succeeds but sometimes I lose it.

During this recording I had to switch between the roles, that was the most fun part for me and I enjoyed it a great deal. This sudden transition from one perspective to the other is a really good exercise.

I've tried to record myself telling stories for youtube, but the sound of my own voice makes me nervous. Funny, because I was at a radio show once for two years (I didn't have to listen to myself, though, it was live) It takes guts to do it your way. Congratulations on that :o)

What kind of radio show was that?

I would love to make radio, in fact. Talking to people, doing Interviews ...

I am listening to my voice for quite a while now and got some practice in diary recording and pretending that I give lectures. lol --- that made me erasing the insecurities and "uhms" and uncomfortable breaks in between sentences or getting embarrassed not finding the right expressions. But I am so far from being a pro (I read that one actually needs an actor education to become a good speaker). Takes years ... so I must bring milage behind me through autodidaction ...

It was about culture, books, philosophy, that kind of thing. It was not very good, but it provided very interesting experience. There are many tricks to speak better (right distance from microphone, speaking with a pencil between your teeth, etc...) I'm working on that milage myself!
