Are You Present When You’re Speaking?


It’s pretty common to be nervous when you’re speaking to a group. Thoughts like, “Am I doing a good job? Do they like me?” are very familiar to many new speakers.
Keep in mind the audience came to hear what you have to say. So when those thoughts come up, remember to focus on being present in the moment. Look out and connect with audience. Be out there with them and not buried in your notes. Remind yourself that you have a valuable message to deliver that will make a difference for those who have come to hear you speak.
