You can speak very easy in public, or you fear , and you will block? Speaking in public is so hard? I never afraid, i can be very relax, and i have self confidence, seems that i have this talent, to make peoples listen to me. Of course that i don t speak every day in public, but when i am in a occasion, all choice me to speak What about you?

I think a person's confidence in the subject matter makes a huge difference! If you are confident about what you have to talk about, it makes it much easier. I used to get a little bit nervous. Never really a big deal. I would get over it as soon as I got up there. Now, though, I have given so many speeches and presentations that it simply isnt a big deal! The best thing to remember in these situations is that no one is judging you. They simply are there to listen to what you have to say. They dont really care how you are dressed or what style of presentation you use, as long as they can understand what you are saying!

I don't have a problem with speaking in public as long as I know what I am talking about. I've had to do it a few times and loved it.

I totally agree, the more confident you are, the more people are going to take notice

i am suffering from stage fear. once i tried to sing a song in annual competition of our school. but i ran away from school saying i am not feeling well. see how afraid i am! once i was asked to say a few word to public. I tried, but words didn't came out of my mouth. my legs trembled and i felt so thirsty. i just can't see people laughing at me so i said simply thank you and ran away. still if you ask me to say something to crowd, i can't! Is it so weird?

I own a Karaoke / DJ Company and I have been doing these in public for about 20 years. I can do as many as 35 weddings from April - Sept. Every single time I am very nervous until the first announcement is made, until the first song is played. I have been in the same Karaoke venue for nearly three years now and the start of every show has me shaking a little. Will the equipment work? Will my mic work? Then I get through that first song and I am fine from there, relax and have fun. People say to me "I would be so nervous" little do they know that I REALLY am. lol Good deoderant I guess.
