I started reflecting on how I could relax and I finally thought to myself that if I knew exactly what I was going to say I had nothing to worry about, so I tried to exit all the nerves from my body, and be relaxed for my presentation. It was my turn and I was ready to present on stage. I began my ted talk really nervous but strong at the same time, because I wanted to transmit security to my audience.
Throughout the presentation I was thinking about myself. I was constantly reflecting on what I was saying and I had nothing to be terrified about because at the end the Ted Talk was about myself and how I had been dependent and independent in many situations. The presentation while the minutes passed was so exciting for myself that I forgot about everything, I just kept on talking and I gained a strong and powerful voice.
At the end of the ted talk nobody could understand how I was scared of public speaking because I was so confident in my presentation that they didn't notice the nerves, I WAS IMPRESSED. I felt satisfied and excited with my presentation because everything had worked on well, however I still need to improve in some areas.
- read less
- grab the mike stronger
- slow down and enunciate
- give my presentation more credibility by researching about dependency and independency
When you are telling the truth, you should never be afraid of sharing it. Especially when you talk about you, you know yourself better than anyone and being scared about yourself is having no confidence in you, and that is completely negative. When you have a clear and strong idea in your head you shouldn't be nervous, because it is something you should be comfortable of speaking about, and that is exactly what happened to me when I began sharing my story. That doesn't mean I now like public speaking, it is just a good way to reduce my nerves and stress when I'm about to present.
