Speaking in public is not easy for vast majority of us, almost everyone gets anxious when you publicly speak, the main key about speaking in public is the fear (a feeling of agitation and anxiety caused by the presence or imminence of danger), we must get rid of it.
There are three main points of public speaking fear:
1 – Lack of knowledge on the subject
If you do not know enough about the subject, during the presentation, you will be always following for an unknown way, fearful of forgetting some important data or of appearing somebody in the auditorium knowing more about it than you do.
2 – Not Acquainted with speaking in public
if you don’t have experience of speaking in public, you will be fearful of not presenting it well, then your professional career could be harmed.
3 – Lack of self-knowledge
if you do not know yourself, specially in front of the public, you will be fearful of not knowing your actions during the speech.
Since we know the causes of public speaking fear, it is a little bit easier to get rid of it:
1 – Get acquainted with the subject
You must know very well the subject. You should know what you are going to present, do not need to speak during one hour or two hours. Study about the subject, get confidence on it. Plan a sequence of the presentation, you should know what people are expecting from that you about the subject
2 – Practice and Acquire Experience
Try to speak in public as much as possible, practice at home for your family, at school, etc… Attend to more Speeches, post more questions during presentations, try to speak more when you are in public. Try to expose your opinions. You need to practice for getting confidence.
3 – Identify your skills
We could say easier about our speaking problems, it is more difficult to say about our qualities of speaking. Therefore it is necessary that you identify your skills.For instance: if you have a good voice, or good vocabulary, or good corporal expression, sense of humor. After identifying them you should explore them.
The Fear does not disappear, but you will be able to fight and dominate the fear of speaking, but it always could be close.
