Public speaking tip

Giving a presentation to an entire school can be nerve-racking, but talking one-on-one with your best friend is free-flowing. At what number is public speaking too much? More than one? Five? Ten? 100? What’s the difference? The difference is that anytime we speak up, we fear being judged. But you can’t possibly please everyone in the crowd. Even if that crowd is made of one.

Public speaking is an art form. However, some of the best public speakers were not good at talking. And what we say is not nearly as important as what we do. The same advice can be said with writing–write like you talk. And with public speaking–talk like you talk.

You have plenty of practice sounding like you, not trying to sound like someone else.
