Looks as though you have been burning the midnight oil. Fantastic line ".....the single most important marketing skill for a professional – the skill of public speaking." Agree totally. Everyone knows how difficult it is to stand in front of an audience, look them in the eye, look relaxed and deliver a coherent speech. We admire and respect people who have the confidence to speak in public, got to be good for business. BTW - many thanks for visiting my site and leaving a comment. Hi Edward

But everyone has the ability to overcome their anxieties and fears, so long as they wish to do so. It is well worth investing the time and effort in learning these skills, just as Warren Buffett did.

]]> Comment on Fear of Public Speaking – Get Rid of the Fear by Nick1254367 http://www.artofgreatspeaking.com/fear-of-public-speaking-get-rid-of-the-fear/comment-page-1/#comment-1440 Nick1254367 Sat, 20 Feb 2010 15:52:24 +0000 http://www.artofgreatspeaking.com/fear-of-public-speaking-get-rid-of-the-fear/#comment-1440 Thanks for this great advice. I agree, we've all been there, situations like going in front of the stage and making a speech to a faceless crowd! But what I just kept in my mind are these things: Speaking in public is not inherently stressful. Don’t fear the fear. Don’t fight it. Don’t put pressure on yourself to succeed: - It’s not about you. - You don’t have to be perfect or brilliant to succeed. - You are not the only one with this problem. Be yourself. Don’t over-prepare or prepare in too much detail, but do rehearse if possible. Make sure you have a message to share. Focus on your audience and on the message itself during your presentation. Don’t believe something bad will happen. Don’t think your audience does not want you to succeed. Get practice to see firsthand that all the points above are true. Recently, I made an effort to put up a comprehensive diagram for this, please take a look! http://www.spreadinghappiness.org/2010/01/analysis-of-public-speaking-anxiety-and-proposals/ Thanks, Nick Thanks for this great advice.
