It’s a roll of the dice about whether or not
You are actually leading your audience to do what you want them to do

You will have too much information
• Edit it by asking yourself:
– If they don’t understand this then what I am telling them does not make sense
– If they do not know
how to do this, then they will not be able to do this

Be relentless in asking:
What is nice for them to know
VSWhat do they need
to know
