LESSON 4 · Build Any Speech
The Napkin Framework
Need a draft even faster than the full 15 minutes? Grab any scrap of paper and draw three boxes in a row: Opening, Body, Close.
In Opening, write one hook and one thesis. In Body, write your three points as single phrases. In Close, write your call to action. The boxes turn an empty page into a visual map, and the small space forces you to keep each point short. Fill them in five minutes, then add one story or example per point — the same move as minutes 6-10 in the template — to make your strongest material stand out.
