If you've ever done any public
speaking, you know a common trick is
to look at people's foreheads, or the
tops of their heads.
This avoids some of the anxiety that
comes from staring into a bunch of
eyes staring back.
Another trick is to visualize everybody
really happy after your speech, to give
you a bit more confidence when you
start.
Yet another trick is to start off with a
bang, some kind of joke, or
controversial statement.
I remember once I was going through
toastmasters, and I was giving a
speech on fear. What it is, how it's
represented, what's real what's not
etc.
I started off by screaming at the top of
my lungs for about five seconds.
I didn't say that I was going to that.
I just walked up, glanced down at my
3x5 cards as if I were about to start
regular speech, and then let 'er rip.
The funny part was that this was in a
bookstore, where they have those
coffee shops and a big area where
people can sit.
Some people thought it was pretty
funny, some people got pretty angry.
But it certainly DESTROYED any nerves
I had before speaking.
Now, I'm not recommending that you
scream at the top of your lungs before
starting anything that may cause some
anxiety.
But what this DOES illustrate is that
there are many mental "tricks" you can
do that will help you overcome any
fear.
Now, some of these are short term
tricks, and some are long term
strategies.
One of the BEST ways to obliterate fear
is to create some very POWERFUL
dreams that you are moving toward.
They don't need to be concrete, or
specific.
Just something you know you're
moving toward.
It's also a good idea to choose one big
thing in each area of life.
That way, no matter WHAT you are
doing, it will be easy to see it in the
larger context.
Giving a speech can be pretty scary.
But giving a speech KNOWING that it's
part of a skill building process that will
get you a TON of money in the future
will make it a lot less scary.
Especially when you're ONLY focused
on some "small" aspect of speaking,
like using less "uh's" or looking at the
audience a larger percentage of the
time.
Whenever you can see anything as a
small step in a larger process, you'll
see it for what it is.
Not a "do or die" situation that's going
to make or break your existence.
Simply one small step on your road to
inevitable success.
