Public Speaking – Lowering the Stress of Public Speaking With Preparation, Organization and Practice
When it comes to public speaking, most people are aware that it is man’s greatest fear. Thus, it can affect the famous as well as the not so famous, the CEO as well as the administrative assistant, men as well as women. There is no doubt that practice can be one of your best tools in conquering your fear; but, there is something else that most people are unaware of that can allow you to take your nervousness and let it work for you and not against you.
Simply put, it is learning to breathe with the support of your diaphragm. Right now, you probably think that you are breathing properly so I will ask you to try this exercise.
Did you notice the difference?
Two great orators. People admired and loved the one. People were gripped and compelled to act by the other.
Cicero appealed more to logic. And reason. He carefully crafted his message to speak to the analytical and rational side of people.
Demosthenes appealed more to emotion. His message touched, tangled and transformed people’s feelings. Feelings so strong they were willing to drop what they were doing to go into battle.
Having identified the end result you are seeking you now research the topic subject matter in depth. You then pull from the research the pertinent information pertaining to your specific subject matter. Keep in mind that you must prepare more information than you actually need.
Organizing the material into a logical presentation sequence is next. Once you have organized the material into a presentation sequence it is helpful to write out the entire speech word for word. However, you will not use this word for word version to deliver your talk. You now reduce the word for word version to talking points on three by five cards which you will use to deliver your speech.
Why is diaphragmatic breathing the most important thing you can do to control your nervousness? Because it relaxes your body by eliminating the toxins in your body. Shallow or lazy breathing actually increases your nervousness because it is unable to rid your body of those toxins thereby increasing your stress.
With the proper preparation, organization and practice you will lower your stress to a manageable level. Your speech will then turn into an exciting adventure rather than one to be dreaded
