    This really resonates with me. I was TERRIFIED of presenting, I would rather die! In fact I used to not turn up to university seminars where I had to present. When I got into work though I couldn’t avoid it. I absolutely dreaded it, I would literally tremble and feel my voice shaking. The more I did it the easier and more natural it became. For the last few months I have been dreading a big presentation at work. On Monday I did it, I didn’t hide behind the podium, I mic’d up and stood in front of my audience. I had power and I loved it. I feel like I’ve come such a long way and so proud. It’s a scary journey but one worth making.

  • @kwmasterbarberuniversaldia3530

    I agree with everything that the young lady spoke on, I grew up with a speech impediment‼️ Right now in my life I speak anywhere & everywhere, Because I have a lot of wisdom & knowledge to share, May the lord almighty continue to bless you all in JESUS name‼️

    Amazingly captivating intro. Really got me imagining in my head. The middle of the speech was a tad confusing though, I couldn't quite grasp what she was getting at. The end was perfect, referring back to the beginning of the speech. The points she had made are really valuable & meaningful though. Great speech

    I am agreed with you . I was able to inspire people by public speaking by my student life and get my message across to my audience... I want to become the public speaking speaker in my professional career . Please kindly keep in your mind that your self confidence is the key that can make you a perfect and confident public speaking Speaker and communicator in the public...you have to believe in your self living in your public speaking comfort zone and must have smart eye contact with the people to whom you are speaking as public speaker ... The public speaking is an art of communication and self Expressions .you know . public speaking is a Language of Leadership and confidence .

      OK I think, though I havent seen the video yet, as its still being edited. There are actually two versions, as the organisers recorded my talk, plus a sit down interview (which is apparently a new type TEDx format, that London have recently done). Not sure which one is coming out yet.

    I agree with her. She is right about the wisdom we posses and is only meant to share. I often experience delivering wise solutions to my friends, solutions which I could never think of on my own, but they only comes out of my mind when some one else is in need. I appreciate her address, now I m more n more positive about public speaking.

    Today , we were celebrating Teacher's Day. Everything was in so unplanned manner. Some students were disrespecting the students and teachers on stage and were passing comments on them. I felt so bad .So I went on stage and asked for mic.
    After getting mic , All I did was my feeling , that I was trying to get that program on right track . I expressed that it was not right action by seniors to discourage others and passing comment . I said these all things in very sweet manner.
    Now I don't know what will they think about me . But if I never spoke my feeling , it would have been big guilt for me.🙌

      5 TED Talks that will teach you the art of Public Speaking - Your Story
      (I couldn't paste the links, so I believe if you google these 2 titles they are probably going to appear for you)
      I hope that it helps. Thanks!
