    Excellent topic. The best speech confidence/performance advice I received in the past are
    1. Over prepare if necessary for your speech. There is no failure in writing notes or your entire speech out.
    2. Watch great speakers on CZcams and image you are them. Possibly copy their hand, body and head movements.
    3. Have full concentration when you speak. Try to reach that level of focus that those telekinesis or mentalist do when they bend spoons. Get in the zone.
    4. Speak slower. Great speakers may speak fast one on one, but to large groups they speak slow.
    5. Always smile.
    6. Get your audience to participate in your speech.
    7. Try to be comfortable and loose. If you seem nervous and uptight, the audience will never enjoy your speech.
    8. Have some visuals
    9. Just know that people care less what you are saying.
    10. If you are blessed with ability to be humorous, then use it appropriately and with tact to know who your audience is.
    11. Keep on practicing. The more you speak in groups the better you become.
    12. Go into every speech imaging you are the greatest speaking with the world.

    Confidence is key to effective communication. * Anxiety is a common barrier to confident * The "ABCS" of anxiety management are:
    **A**ffective (feelings and responses)
    *B**ehavioral (physical symptoms) ***C**ognitive (merntal processes) * Techniques to manage anxiety include: * Acknowledging and reframing negative thoughts
    * Seeing anxiety as a signal that you care * Practicing deep breathing * Using physical warm-ups * Adopting a mindset that stress can be enhancing
    * By managing anxiety, you can become more confident and effective in your communication.

    Good episode and excellent podcast, "Think Faster, Talk Smart." I believe that stressful situations present challenges for everybody and provide an opportunity to demonstrate emotional intelligence, which is the most important quality we possess. When anxiety arises, I think of positive aspects.

    Best advice ever given within this video, beautifully curated on the subject to lower the anxiety, this is going to help us a lots. We can also make communication effective by taking the short pauses while addresses large audiences to avert some anxiety to be clear more before start to the next statement, this would attenuate the fast running nerves to control and come on the same momentum with add on more energies and it could be prove great when use effectively.

    The best technique I have found is to actually in your head say what you will say just before it comes out of your mouth. It regulates everything very nicely.
