Specifying your fear: don't go to a battle without knowing who your enemy is👍 No dance for me either. Lol And to your questions: Never give up attitude. Positive self-talk

I have an experience where I had to share my music with a wedding and coordinate with the procession. On my keyboard. What I did to relieve the stress was to forgive myself before hand if I made a mistake and act knowledge that no one is perfect and only human.

Thanks for sharing, Stephen. Indeed, no one is perfect. Taking that pressure off of yourself to start is a smart move.

extending my hands or using the hero posture helps with my confidence and nervousness before I start my speech!

Sir , you are giving us some great ideas for public speaking. I have planned to join a toastmasters club near my home. To become a public speaker what else should I do?
@publicspeakingmentor3 жыл бұрын
I'm really glad to hear that, Sudhir. Right now I would say that should be your first step. Attend your first meeting and see which club is the best fit for you. Once there make sure you participate as soon as you visit.

Thank you so much for sharing your tipps. My favourite part is you showing us the level of detail when naming our fear/s.

My pleasure! Yes, specifying exactly why you are fearful helps to focus your mind.

Great tips, Aaron. Deep breathing and light exercise such as jumping jack and press up help me lower my anxiety when I'm getting ready to speak. I like music too. 👌

Thanks, Nonso! One other thing that I do is let out an inaudible power scream (don't know what else to call it). For some reason that just helps me feel better.

Great tips Aaron. I’ve been watching every international speech competition winner for past 25 years (with exception of 2-3 I couldn’t find). I find allot of value in all of your videos, along with a few other world champs that I follow. Just yesterday I placed first in my division contest for international and evaluation speech. I attribute that to the paradigm shift I had after viewing one of your videos. The one where you shared the story of: when you realized that the message was more important than winning the contest. That was my “aha “ moment. My message got clearer and I felt good about what I wanted to share. Winning was an added bonus. Now I get to share my message with my district in May. Thank you for contributing to my growth in toastmasters. :) Also, what music do you listen to before Speaking? I have eclectic taste so anything you suggest would be appreciated.

Gladys, firstly congratulations on winning your division! I am glad that I could help in some small way to encourage you to put the focus on the message. This is why I release these videos. Also when it comes to my music, in 2019 my favorites were some motivational rap songs that found on KZbin and to help with soothing and calming, I listened to a Gospel song called Order my Steps. I also listened to a bunch of Japanese anime music that I don't know the name to but just loved for the sound of it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJ60gHWdfa6gaMU kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWfWhXd4gJt8iac kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2SpiZqIfbSLnKc

What do you do to counter the anxiety when you are in a meeting (e.g. toastmasters) and have to sit in the audience until your turn comes? I just try to always be first so that I can jump around a bit just before but that is not always possible.
@publicspeakingmentor2 жыл бұрын
Your suggestion is a good one to volunteer first. However, if that is not an option, you can ask to leave the room before until it is your turn. If you want to hear the other speakers, I would try my best to absorb their message or even take notes during their talk. Hopefully that can get your mind off of your nervousness a little.
