    Ten Successful Tips
    Control the “Butterflies”

     Know the room- become familiar with


    the place of presentation
     Know the audience- greet or chat with
    the audience before hand. It’s easier
    to speak to friends than to strangers
     Know your material-increased
    nervousness is due to un-preparedness
    Control the “Butterflies”

     Relaxation- relax entire body by


    stretching and breathing so as to
    ease the tension
     Visualize giving your speech-
    Visualize yourself giving your speech
    from start to finish. By visualizing
    yourself successful, you will be
    successful
    Control the “Butterflies”

     People want you to succeed-the


    audience is there to see you succeed
    not to fail
     Don’t apologize-by mentioning your
    nervousness or apologizing, you’ll
    only be calling the audience’s
    attention to mistakes
    Control the “Butterflies”

     Concentrate on your message-not


    the medium. Focus on the message
    you are trying to convey and not on
    your anxieties
     Turn nervousness into positive
    energy-nervousness increases
    adrenaline, transform it into vitality
    and enthusiasm
    Control the “Butterflies”

     Gain experience-experience builds


    confidence, which is key to effective
    public speaking
    Practice takes you from this..
    To this….
