Would you rather be the corpse at a funeral than deliver the eulogy?

Do you develop mysterious “unavailability” when your leadership role requires you to address an audience?

Does the thought of speaking before an audience make you so frighten that you would prefer to walk blindfolded backwards down Ontario’s Highway 401?


Follow these 5 simple steps to overcome your fear…


Then...

Step #1 – Write down your real fears

Failing – if I get up and speak and I fail, I will be so embarrassed! Being judge – If I speak in public, will people think I am stupid, will they think I am uneducated? Expressing my true feelings – If I say how I really will they still like me afterwards?

Etc, etc, etc


What I’m really afraid of is…

Step # 2 – Write down your limiting beliefs


Limiting beliefs wipe out your positive feeling

Positive Feelings... Limiting Beliefs

I have a great voice! Yes…But: People won’t listen to me

I can make a presentation that can win me the contract!

Yes…But: I don’t have a College Degree

I have great information to share!

Yes…But: I can’t dress to suit that crowd

Step # 3 - Work on removing the limiting beliefs

Begin the process by taking your limiting beliefs and examining them. Try to answer questions such as:

–Why do I believe these things? –What might happen if I didn’t believe

them? –Has any of it ever been true? –Has it ever been different? –What is really holding me back?


Step # 4 – Find positive beliefs to replace the limiting ones

1. Use affirmations

2. Meditate

3. Read books that can help you

4. Use Good old-fashioned prayers

5. Do anything else that works for you


Step # 5 - Practice your public speaking

3. Use this feedback to grow!

1. Give short speeches to “friendly” audiences

2. Listen to the feedback from these audiences
