Public Speaking Made Easy For Introverts

The organisers told me initially that the audience will be about 50.

Then they came rushing to me to say it’s now 100, they opened the first partition of the room, then a few minutes before the presentation, they said it’s 150, they opened the next partition....

Then, not even a minute later they said it’s a full house...

I just smiled..

"sure thing why not, I am here to serve" I said...

I used to be petrified for months in the lead up to when required to speak in public.

I did all possible courses to try and overcome this "FEAR".

Finally it clicked, its a process where we as the speaker, who if we know our subject really well, which is about the "MESSAGE" then everything else will be far easier to manage.

We can begin to completely immerse ourselves in the "story telling" that our body becomes completely part of the environment.

Everything in life is a process.

Its about practice, practice and more practice.

Seriously, if I could overcome this, anyone on this planet can, and used to take me months of preparation for an hour long "keynote" presentation.

Now it takes me literally 15 minutes to prepare and am all good to go....
