Zero to Hero in Public Speaking

If you have read my other articles you know that I personally, don't believe in instant solutions with concern to solving the fear of public speaking. Neither with concern to leveraging your public speaking skills.

I am usually push toward holistic understanding of things, and try to present balanced approach that is flexible enough to collect knowledge of various sources, and integrate it together in order to create a broader perspective of reality and at the same time adjustable to one person style and needs.

Each person should find his or her "unique solution" and approach that will work for you, may not for work for your friend and vice versa. Yet, the common factor to my opinion is that once you find the method that you can "bind" with, a hard work and commitment is required.

Solving a problem start by taking responsibility. Solving the solution may take three days or three years. Forget about one measure for all. There is no such thing with relating to stress anxiety or fears, or human behavior in general.

If you have a strong desire to improve your public speaking skills - overcome stage fright, deliver high impact presentations that move your audience and convey your ideas more effectively, then keep reading my post.

But if you want to stay in the comfort zone, not taking responsibility for a change in your life, not willing to search for the approach that is suitable for you and continue walking in the shadows of other people then it will be perfectly fine to hit the BACK button.

You can probably identify yourself to any of these scenarios:

* You are afraid to speak up.

* Your job requires you to speak to many people.

* You are tired of being outshine by people who seem to have the natural talent of "promoting ideas" by presenting in public, and accordingly get a job promotion.

* You are in business that requires dealing with people and afraid of dealing with people face-to-face!

* You don't enjoy yourself at parties because you can't converse well.

* Your opinions are not taken seriously because you are timid.

Lets see what are the costs:

distorted public perception, losing business opportunities, missed friendships and relationships, low self-esteem, scarify job promotion and therefore earnings.

Two words: start doing!

If you are a natural autodidact you may compulsively start searching now all around the Internet, for solutions and approaches that may help you solve your problem. You will certainly get a LOTS OF knowledge.

A clever autodidact, on the other end know that sometimes, it is better to spend some money for taking a course that guide you step by step across the various aspects of an issue. First you may find the course to provide a suitable solution for you, second - focus!, focus! and again focus!. Being able to focus is a symptom of taking responsibility (wow - good symptoms exist too!). Third - you are being guided in a field of knowledge, that someone else is knowing better then you.
