Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from George Torok

Insights from George Torok

You need a system to succeed. Talent is never enough.

You have all the confidence you will ever need inside of you. It may be hidden deep – you must give yourself permission to let it out.

The more we see you speak in public – the more we believe you to be a leader.

Public speaking is not a talent – it is a skill.

Your audience is always right in the way they feel and think.

If the speaker sends a message that the receiver does not understand – then who needs to change?

If you present yourself as perfect while speaking – we will not believe you and we will hate you. We like you when we see that you are imperfect like we are.

We love to hear stories. We don’t need another lecture. Just ask your kids.

The little voice in the back of your head will always find something wrong with you. But nobody else can hear that voice.

Murphy said that whatever can go wrong will go wrong. Murphy loves computers, especially PowerPoint presentations.
