Public Speaking Tips For The Terrified Newcomer

I can tell you that at one time I was totally and utterly terrified of speaking in public and pretty much froze with nerves at even the very thought of doing so! Anxiety was my friend for 4 weeks prior to the event, sleepless nights for 7 days prior to the event and dry mouth and pure terror 1 hour prior to the event. Does this sound familiar to you? For those of you who don't know me well, I am an internet marketer, writer, coach and mentor as well as an international public speaker. I have spoken on stage at some of the biggest internet marketing events (including the 'World Internet Summit) many times and in many different countries around the world and have been successful in continually selling myself and my products from the stage following a ninety minute talk. I've also received many, many standing ovations! Now, I most definitely do not tell you that information to brag in any way. Despite the euphoria and how great it felt for the ego afterwards, I never wanted to do that again! Never! I didn't want to have to put myself through it ever again. Strange huh? My tips that follow in this book are what I used and continue to use to dampen down this terrorizing anxiety. I really want to share them with you and hope these tips will help you to overcome the 'Talking Terrors'!
