Keep A Clip File

Do you find yourself often looking for  great anecdotes or illustrations to use  in interest arousing introductions to your presentations or to clarify a important point?


Read  your local and international  newspapers regularly.  They often contain bits of information that you can use with a wide variety of topics.


Just rip out the page the information is on and fold it so it close to the standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch sheet of typing paper and pop into your filing cabinet under different topics.


This clip file can also be enriched with other possible illustsrations or anecdotes you gather from other sources such as magazines , books, radio and television programs, as well as pictures you take with your cell phone or digital camera and  your own observations and experiences.


It can be a rich sourced of information that might also spark idea for your presentations as well.
