Public Speaking Tips And Tricks
Published by admin | Filed under Writing and Speaking
Having to deliver a speech in front of a crowd of people can be one of the most nerve wracking things that a person has to ever do. There are many fears and phobias attached to public speaking and only a small minority of people will claim to enjoy the experience. In this article I will be giving some tips and tricks which I hope will make the whole ordeal slightly easier.
Many a question can run through a persons mind before they go about giving a public speech:
Will the audience think that my speech is boring?
What if I am unable to say anything when I am standing in front of all those people?
What if I stutter during the speech?
What if I forget my lines, what will I do?
What if people do not find the jokes funny that I am planning to tell in the speech?
The first thing that is important to remember and what should help to ease the pressure is the fact that most of the people who are in the audience will realise what an awkward task you are facing and will not be expecting you to deliver a speech in the same way that Tony Blair could. Instead of thinking and worrying about how your audience could react you need to start thinking more about yourself. Just think about how proud you will be after the event and about the nice reward that you will give yourself. This could be in the form of a large alcoholic drink, some nice food or some new clothes.
During the speech, really try to enjoy the experience, after all it will be over in a flash. Try to smile on a regular basis even though you may feel like crying. Throw in the odd little joke and do not attempt to make the speech last too long.
Have confidence in your ability and perhaps plan what you are going to say before hand by practicing in front of your friends and family.
