Public Speaking - The biggest fear of people

Make an oral presentation to the school, speaking in public when receiving an award, presenting a guest at a party, playing in a play, whatever, for most people to face an audience is the most intimidating experiment to live.

Why is it so difficult to expose himself to a group as a speaker? Probably the first thing that comes to mind is the fact that everyone is going to judge what you seem, to judge you on your dress, your hair, on how you stand, gesticulating, the way you speak and finally, everything that may pass through your head and why you do not like being judged.

Rest assured, people act the way you do when you hear someone make a presentation to a group. Do you judge other speakers on one or more of the elements I just mentioned? Probably yes!

I did not helped you, I confirm what you feared most. However, if the person who was at the forefront managed to get its message across the audience and yourself, I'm sure you've remenber the message and you forgot all these little judgments you had on that person during his presentation.

When a person present the content in an interesting way, most people remember the message, not the faults of the speaker. So, the more important when you face an audience is to make sure your message is interesting and you put the emphasis on the critical thing and you will have the attention of your audience.

But how to successfully not forget all the content of your performance before the presentation? You practice relentlessly, when comes the day of the presentation you have forgotten everything and you do not know how to control your nervousness. As you know, this feeling of fear is well-known from the community of artists. How do they succeed in controlling this stress to avoid any mention during the show?

There is no magic formula, but there is one thing in common with all those super nervous people before appearing in public, to perform well. Firstly, they are well prepared and know their texts by heart, then they are convinced that people in the audience will appreciate what they see and hear.

They never doubt the intelligence and good judgement from the audience and this allows people who make presentations to an audience to feel confident to present the content with enthusiasm and conviction.

You must be confident that your audience is on your side and he is concerned about what you have to say, otherwise you will have a hard time to feel good and perform well in front of an audience.
