The speeches you write has value, that you create, but your delivery of these speeches plays a key essential part to their value. The value of your delivery of these speeches will therefore dictate their success.
At least, that's the way I see it. |
Yup, you can create a product or service, but if you don't get it into the hands of other people, then no value is being delivered.
For example, you can start a software company and spend lots of time creating incredible life-changing software. But if the software never gets released and efficiently delivered to people who can benefit from it, you'll go broke in the creation phase.
Do I generate income by writing articles or by posting articles? I can write as much as I want, but if I never share my work publicly, it helps no one and can't generate income.
Similarly, I wrote a book. That project involved a lot of hard work. But the publisher hasn't sold many copies of it yet (except via Amazon pre-order) because the book hasn't been released yet. Only when the book is released will it provide value to others and generate income.
