                                                                                                                                                                                            2. Fear is useful and desirable when understood, but wasteful and undesirable when misunderstood.

                                                                                                                                                                                            4. All public speaking situations are situations that really matter.
                                                                                                                                                                                            5. All self-confidence comes from experience.

                                                                                                                                                                                            1. Prepare thoroughly—Practice out loud, use a mirror, audio tape or video tape, practice with friends and get their reactions, time it, make workable note cards, practice with note cards, etc.
                                                                                                                                                                                            2. Take a couple of deep breaths and, if possible, stretch and work off energy before you speak. Speak early in the period if you are generally nervous.
                                                                                                                                                                                            3. Think of yourself as a “communicator of ideas” not a “speaker with a script.”
                                                                                                                                                                                            4. Realize that everyone else feels very much as you do. Everyone is in the same boat. People are “with you.”
                                                                                                                                                                                            5. With experience, know that your confidence and success will increase.
                                                                                                                                                                                            6. Be at your best physically and mentally.
                                                                                                                                                                                            7. Realize the opportunities outweigh the risks and everyone makes mistakes on their way to improvement.
