Boost Your Confidence
How many of us have looked
at a politician giving a speech or interview on the television and
thought, “if only I could speak in public so confidently”, they seem to
speak so effortlessly, never ever getting tongue-tied or frustrated; as
though it was the most natural thing in the world. Pressure, nerves,
don’t seem to bother them at all.
Some people, it’s true, are
more outgoing, it just happens to be part of their natural character,
they’re born with it – lucky them! For others, the fact that they must
engage in some form of public speaking can be a cause of great anxiety;
remembering, perhaps, the horror of looking out over all those faces
when they had to speak as a child in the school play, or recite a bible
passage in church.
Public Speaking Confidence
It could just be that you
feel you are the quiet, reserved type and public speaking goes against
the grain for you. In truth, nine times out of ten, it’s not the public
speaking that we fear; almost everyone speaks in front of people
everyday, the difference is: it’s normally only a few people at a time
and they’re usually familiar to us. Whether it be fear of the unknown,
fear of failure, or fear of humiliation, all of these arise from a
perceived threat that causes us to feel vulnerable.
Confidence And Negative Thoughts
- What if people aren’t impressed with my presentation?
- What if they get up and walk out?
- What if they judge my accent?
- What if I don’t use the correct technical wording?
- What if someone asks a question I can’t answer?
Apparently, King George VI
suffered from stage fright and stammered. Naturally, being a king, he
couldn’t really avoid public engagements and turned to hypnotherapy for
help.
Hypnotherapy obviously
worked for King George, as his stage fright and stammering are not
common knowledge, and if it worked for him then it can most certainly
work for you.
