[0:00] I've been teaching for over 15 years and
[0:03] you know what I hate most about it?
[0:05] Preparing the slides. Every year I teach
[0:08] a course called the annual review where
[0:10] I lead a group of a couple hundred
[0:12] people through the process of completing
[0:15] their own annual life review. But the
[0:18] problem with it is it's also such a
[0:20] heavy lift because I have to create and
[0:22] customize the slides every time as my
[0:25] methodology and my philosophy evolves.
[0:28] So this here for the first time I used
[0:31] Gamma for that. This is me building
[0:33] something I'll actually use with real
[0:36] participants and real customers in just
[0:38] a few days here. Let me walk you through
[0:40] it. So I'm opening gamma.app here where
[0:43] you can see the main workspace with all
[0:45] the different slide decks that I've

[0:59] starting point for your slides is text.
[1:02] It could be text from your note-taking
[1:04] app or from meeting notes with your team
[1:07] or from an email or really from
[1:09] anything. And in that case, you'll want
[1:10] to click paste in text and just paste
[1:13] copy and paste the content right here as
[1:16] the starting point for your slides. In
[1:18] other cases, you don't have existing
[1:19] content. You may just have an idea or
[1:22] some random thoughts floating in your
[1:24] head. In that case, you can click
[1:26] generate. And for this one, you're
[1:28] really starting much more from a blank
[1:29] slate, right? So, you could just start
[1:31] typi
