Need to refresh parts of your presentation or speech with new illustrations or analogies to help clarify important points? The source of these is all around you.
Nature.
For instance if you were giving presentation or a part of your speech on the pressures of hectic modern life you could compare daily life as being caught up in a raging torrent that left you struggling just to keep your head above water never mind accomplish anything beyond survival.
Or you could compare the brief respite from your pressure-packed day when you arrive at home in the evening with being momentarily in the eye of the hurricane. Safe for now but uncertain about what you are going to be hit with next.
Of course not all of your comparisons need to be negative or depressing. You could easily turn that one about the hurricane around to illustrate how a happy family and social life is like an island of security that gives you the opportunity to build your strength and resources to go on.
So n your reading about and your actual travels through the natural world around you keep an eye open for things in the natural world that you can use to make your presentations more colourful, easy to understand and memorable.
