Our second tip this month is to never write your speech word-for-word. Speeches are about passion and clear knowledge about a topic. Writing your speech word-for-word allows for little of that passion to come out in the actual presentation of the speech. It also can be quite a waste as writing a speech word for word leads to you remembering it word for word which, as you'll learn tomorrow is also a mistake.

To kick off this series, our very first tip is to design your presentation first...then design your slideshow. One of the biggest mistakes beginning speakers (and even some advanced ones) make is that they rely on having the structure of their presentation already thought out in their head and jump ahead to making the PowerPoint.

Both your presentation and your slideshow will turn out so much better if you draft out what the structure and topics of your speech will be first, then leave making the slideshow for the very end.

One of the most common things I still hear from people who are talking to me about public speaking is "why do I still get nervous when I'm giving a speech?".

Now the preamble to the question is always a little different. The person may have already gone to classes or toasting clubs, maybe the person had already been speaking for years and years and years, but for some reason they still suffer with nervousness every single time when they're trying to deliver a speech.

It doesn't matter if they've had the best coaches and the best training, for some reason with all that practice the base level nerves still persist and this can cause them to get frustrated. They might start feeling like nothing they have worked towards has mattered or that they'll just never become a great public speaker cause, to them, great public speakers never get nervous.

Well on today's episode I'm gonna dive into the reason that basically everyone still has this question, why you still suffer from it, and how to either fix the problem at it's roots, or find comfort in it.
