Finish the Analogy

Thirty unfinished analogies about speaking in public, for the one-minute rounds that train you to keep going instead of commenting on yourself.

How to use this sheet
  1. Set a timer for one minute. Read a prompt, finish it out loud within a few seconds, move straight to the next.
  2. No stopping, no restarting, no laughing at the bad ones. The quality of the analogy is beside the point.
  3. Tick the prompts you have used. Next time, start where you left off.
  4. Three rounds, a short break between. Notice when you start recovering faster.
