When you ask a teenage boy what they want for Christmas you’re very likely to receive the reply “I don’t know” which to most parents is not much help. You might be happy to know that there are a few Xmas present ideas which will trigger reactions of happiness from any teenage boy no matter how hard they try to not show it

So what are the best Xmas present ideas for teenage boys?

Don’t worry I won’t leave you hanging, here’s a look at the top three hottest Xmas present ideas for teenage boys…

1) Video games are number one on the list of the top three Xmas present ideas for teenage boys. I don’t think this will come as much of a shock to a lot of people but if you didn’t know, teen boys love video games. At the moment there are three leading video game consoles which are the Microsoft Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii. All of them offer something different but we won’t go into that as that’s another topic for another day. As a parent or someone looking to find a great gift for a teenage boy, video games whether it be just a game for their console or a whole gaming system will definitely be a hit with any teen boy.

2) Mp3 players are second on our list of the best Xmas present ideas for teenage boys. Quite simply, an Mp3 player as a gift will be in use for a long time. Any teenage boy will be happy at the thought of listening to their favourite tracks whenever they feel like it and with so many quality Mp3 players around at the moment (the most well know being the Apple iPod) there will be no difficulty in finding one of a perfect price range, quality and specification for the teen receiving this as an Xmas present.

3) Last but definitely not least on the list of Xmas present ideas for teen boys is Gift cards… Yes you read it right I said gift cards, OK let me explain. With a teen boy that’s impossible to please it’s best to let them choose their own gift by giving them the means to get whatever they want, from a store they use often or one that has cool stuff that teen boys might like. Instead of spending blindly on a gift and hoping they’ll like it. Gift cards give them the freedom to buy something of their choice while giving you the pleasure of knowing you pointed them towards the shop where they found the gift they like.

What if you could deliver presentations with razor-sharp instructions that inspire people to get things done? What if you could achieve the results you seek, without coming off like a control freak?

Well…you’d have the answer that eludes so many business professionals and leaders. You would know how to be an effective communicator, an inspiring presenter, and a leader people trust.

Just take a moment here (just between you and me) and imagine where you could use these valuable skills. If you could give precise instructions that people act on, it would be worth its weight in gold. At home and at work.

• Consider where you could use these communication skills:
• Get your projects approved – and your recommendations acted upon
• Inspire teams and project groups to move forward, and make progress in spite of differences
• Influence your boss or supervisor to go in the best direction – and give you credit
• Persuade your spouse or partner to stop procrastinating and take action on an important decision
• Explain and instruct employees with authority and influence
• Get your kids saying “yes” to homework without kicking and screaming

In short, you’d have a way to get your ideas into action — without tearing your hair out or feeling cut off and ignored.

The powerful thing about learning how to give clear, specific instructions is this: people listen.

Instead of sending confusing message, your presentations and proposals are clear and focused. Having the confidence and know-how to give clear directions can make the difference between people seeing you as a novice or recognizing you as a natural leader.

Clear directions have a profound impact in verbal, written, and multi-media presentations. Whether your presentation is a short informal pitch at the water cooler, a polished proposal, or a whiteboard and PowerPoint presentation, clear directions show confidence and authority.

Use these 3 tips to speak with authority and persuade people to act the very first time they hear your presentation:

Tip 1: Give Clear Short Action Tips – At The Start

Don’t wait until the end of your presentation to give clear directions. Point to action right at the beginning. Then, make your presentation a step-by-step case for taking the action you have recommended.

Tip 2: Give Just Enough To Light A Fire

You don’t have to spell out every single detail to persuade people to take action. Just give enough motivation to inspire and motivate. Highlight the benefits and value of taking action. This leaves people wanting to take the first step.

Once participants are self-motivated, they will take the first step. And continue on to take the next steps.

Tip 3: Be Precise And Specific

Tell people what you want them to do. Be precise. Focus on a single action. Give instructions and focus the desire to act on this single step.

Be alert. This is often the hardest thing to do if you are extremely detail focused. You must resist the temptation to spell out all the steps in vivid detail. Give precise instructions for a single next step. This helps your instructions stay powerful, specific, and very compelling.

What makes razor sharp instructions so valuable?

Your instructions fulfill a vital part of professional presentation skills: action. When you provide clear instruction, you make it easy for participants to jump into action. This is, after all, the purpose of any business presentation.

In today’s crazy busy workplace, you must need to help clients and prospects make fast decisions, and take action. Once do this, you’ll transform presentations — and skyrocket results.
