one step at a time
16 months ago
I gave a formal presentation this week at work, after only getting about a day’s notice. I seriously think the trick is to practice some by yourself. Write down what you’re going to say, and say it aloud.
I unfortunately have a habit of memorizing, but it’s the only way I can feel comfortable. I love it when people ask questions, which makes me feel more natural for some reason.
It had been since May when I last had to give a speech, and it went well again. Every time it happens, it feels great – this is definitely conquering a fear.
