7 Tips to Jump Start your Public Speaking Success
The formula for success – Have a passion for what you speak
on. Master your delivery. And be very persistent about what
you need to do to be a sought after speaker who is asked to
come back again and again!
1. To begin – Practice the four D’s: Drop, Delay, Delegate,
and Do! Make the space for taking the steps needed to pursue
your speaking career.
2. Acknowledge and utilize your prime time (Chronobiology).
Use your peak working hours to develop and collect your
material, listen to tapes, hear other speakers, view videos,
etc.
3. Visualize your speech and break through your nervousness.
See it. Feel it. Allow it to happen.
4. Get away from “woulda, coulda, shoulda” thinking. Don’t
wait for the perfect time – just DO IT!! Remember: There is
no right time to begin your speaking career.
5. Take one step at a time – the first step is the hardest.
Then – do what is needed to package yourself and improve
your delivery constantly.
6. Set time limits – you don’t have to do it all in one
month…or even one year.
7. Don’t do it alone – company makes it more fun!! Hire a
Coach now and cut your learning curve.
Be a Speaker with Intention
As a speaker of Intention, you can help your audience organize their energy and actions that will bring about their desired goals, dreams.
Nervous? You Are Not Alone. Presentation tips from the Pros
Accept the fear and make it work for you. Most people cannot see your nervousness, so don't even mention that you are. Use this adrenaline rush of nervous energy by turning it into lots of enthusiasm in your delivery.
Overcome Your Fear of Public Speaking
The audience wants you to succeed - so just treat them as your friends and speak in a conversational manner. You don't use notes when you speak to your friend, so don't use them now. At the most, you may use some note cards that include some key words for you to remember.
