Many people are very afraid of the idea of having to memorize for public speaking or any other stressful situation. It probably goes right along with the epidemic fear of the very idea of public speaking. Typically we have to memorize words, numbers, music, or other things for pressure-packed situations such as important tests, performances, speeches, or other events where we must present ourselves in front of an audience. The very idea that, at this moment when our hands are sweaty,...

Secret #1 – Make Direct Eye Contact While Speaking
Answer this question : Why does an animal trainer keep his eyes upon the eyes of the animals he is training? A steady, direct look makes speech doubly effective, for it invariably carries the impression of confidence and of power. It is pleasing to a person who speaks to you, because it shows him that you are attentive. The fact that you fix your eyes upon his shows him that you are interested in him and in his...

After you have selected a piece begins the process of memorization, interpretation, and endless practicing. The easiest, most effective way to do any of these is to connect to your material. But how is that accomplished? Quite simple really. Print yourself out several copies of your script and begin to interact. Mark-up your Declamation, always being sure to save a clean copy for reference, and watch those words become part of you. What does it mean...

Juxtaposition is the placing, side by side, of two ideas or items usually for the purpose of comparison or contrast. I staged an event at Washington National Airport where I had a huge 450-pound man and a very small man (three feet eleven inches) dressed as chauffeurs. They were waiting at the gate for a man from Japan arriving for his first visit to the United States. To take the comical juxtaposition one step further, the small man was holding a gigantic sign with the...

Why now is THE BEST time to start a Public Speaking Business!? Do you agree right now people have more problems they need solved? I’m so tired of people talking about the economy tanking! Why aren’t more people talking about how they will take better care of themselves, and their families? “We don’t know what we are going to do?” Well, stop whining and decide to figure it out! Look for answers. If you are spending time...

If you have trouble making eye contact with your audience, I suggest you make every attempt to change that practice. A young lawyer with whom I was working would glance about the room, briefly looking at someone and then immediately glancing at someone else, never actually seeing any of us in his audience. At first, you would think he was making eye contact but as he continued in this pattern, you realized that he saw no one in his audience. A furtive glance tells your listeners...

Let me be frank: I have mixed feelings about getting up in public to speak before large groups. This should come as no surprise since the fear of public speaking tops almost everyone’s list—surpassing death itself! As Jerry Seinfeld puts it, “If you were invited to give a eulogy at a funeral, you’d rather be the guy in the casket than the one at the podium!” But what may come as a surprise is that for almost 30 years I have made a handsome living...

What you are about to be told can possibly be the greatest Impromptu advice you will ever read. Ever. Well, maybe not ever. That sets the bar rather high. BUT, this can be the one thing that is guaranteed to improve your game. Anticipation slowly gnawing at you? Get ready. Get set... practice Novel advice huh? While thisisa common sense type of approach to improvement, it is absolutely, 100% true. ...

The arrangement of chairs, the sound system, the lighting and the overall climate of the room can make a big difference in the way a public speaking engagement is received. You may not think you have much control over these items, but think again, because you do. If you have prior access to the room where your speech will be held you should always get there as early as possible. I have never had a speaking engagement where everything about the room set-up was perfect. There is...
