How to Speak in Public with Confidence!


what do you call a fish with no eyes
just killing it I can’t follow this act
what do you call a deer with no eyes and
no legs I can’t do this what do you mean
you can’t do this it’s too overwhelming
look at all these people here oh I don’t
want to be here I want to be a home
you’re gonna be fine really
yeah how i’ma show you and you in five
steps how anyone can overcome the fear
of public speaking who you told never
mind that let’s focus on you let’s start
with some breathing techniques and you
guys as well if you’re practicing for a
public speaking event use these
techniques follow along with me who you
talking to
Shh just breathe with me look if you
breathe like that it’s gonna make you
all panicky it increases your stress
levels increases your adrenaline it’s
rubbish what we want to do is breathe
from the lower part of your body breathe
from your diaphragm imagine the whole
bottom part of your body is filling with
air okay and release all the air out of
your system and you can do this three
times four times as many times as you
need in order to feel comfortable so
someone out there breathe in for four
and alpha four
feel more relaxed yeah
karma the most important thing is to
know your subject research your subject
as best as you can do you know
everything there is to know about it if
someone has questions about it could you
answer those questions I mean for
example Brian you’re a comedian do you
know your jokes yeah
you excited about them are they funny to
you yeah yeah that’s all that matters if
you’re interested in it your audience
are gonna love it okay find a passion in
that subject learn to love it if you
enjoy talking about it it’s gonna make
it much easier to talk about in public
I’ve got the script that’s great but
look when you’re practicing a speech
it’s better not to have a script that
you have to memorize every single word
it’s better just to have bullet points
you know which pieces of information
that you have to give the words which
you use in order to explain those points
and not super important it’s the message
that counts remember it like you’re
telling a joke for example I am telling
a joke exactly so what if I forget my
lines or I can’t remember what I’m
saying don’t try and be perfect everyone
in public speaking makes mistakes and
that’s fine if you skip a line or if you
make a mistake don’t worry it happens
you can always come back to that part
later in the speech and don’t apologize
for making a mistake
it’s no shame in correcting yourself but
have you practiced over and over again
until it feels natural yep practicing
until you can’t fail until it’s
impossible to forget this is key to
feeling more calm and more confident
about your speech before delivering it
just remember people want you to succeed
no one here wants you to fail well what
about those two over there at the bar
just chatting to each other don’t worry
about them in every audience there’s
gonna be people bored asleep on their
phone people that just don’t want to be
there you can say whatever you want
you’re still not gonna get some people
in the audience’s attention okay your
body language I mean how are you
planning to stand onstage
I mean no you you’re gonna be try
to be open a bit loose this stage is
yours
feel free to move around show how
confident you are and look sometimes you
can take a strategic port
taking a strategic force can make you
not only seem confident but it can also
give you time to think about what you’re
going to say next and finally eye
contact you don’t want to be looking at
everyone in the audience in the eye well
that’s kind of creepy where we’re
looking then there’s this really great
trick that you can use once you’re on
stage don’t look at people in the eye
just look just above their heads that
way it still looks like you’re
interacting with the audience but you’re
not and you feel a bit more relaxed and
confident about it who are you talking
to it doesn’t matter you ready you ready
to go on stage yep you’re gonna be
amazing
yeah go get em tiger okay
