*Playing with your hair*
*Apologising too many times*
*Having your arms crossed*
*Turning your back to the audience*
The easiest way to take care of your body language is to
get on to the stage and
take a few seconds to relax yourself.
Just breathe and smile.
And then start.
3. Forget about audience reaction.
When you are public speaking, you are talking to a
group and in that group somebody fought with his wife,
somebody did not get promotion,
somebody is tired,
somebody is addicted to Instagram.
And all of these reactions have nothing to do with you personally.
Think of it this way, when you go to hear someone speak
do you wait for their speech to bomb?
No, right?
You are there because you want to learn something from them.
Most of the audience wants you to succeed
and the rest of them don't care because
they have their own priorities.
So even if you see a few bored faces here and there
forget about it and just focus on
your delivery, you presentation because this
is your moment and nobody else
can take it away from you.
Before I move on to the next section, this is
what I want you to do.
Comment and let me know, when was the last time
you heard a great presentation and who gave it?
Was it your school principal?
or somebody from your office or was it a TED Talk?
Incase you have it, provide the YouTube link below
so that all of us can watch and learn from it.
4. Invest as much time and money
it takes to learn how to speak.
Let me tell you a story..
In 2010, I joined a public speaking club called Toastmasters.
It's a self-help club. Nobody is an expert but
it's a community that learns by supporting each other.
I used to pay 6$ per month to be a part of it
which is like 72$ per year.
My college friend used to tell me,
'Why are you wasting money, just to go there and speak?'
Just a few months back he pinged me. His name is Aziz
and he said, 'You remember how I used to make fun of you?...
..I was wrong. Clearly, public speaking changed your life!'
So invest as much time and money
it takes to learn how to speak well.
Obviously do not fall for those shams that
promise you that they will teach you English in just 30 days.
But...if it's an app, a club or a community
that says that it's a process and they are with you throughout that process
then try them out for a few times,
see how others have progressed
and if you get positive vibes from them
invest your time and money in it.
Because I have seen people get way ahead in their careers just by
getting over their fear of speaking.
And one of the ways of investing your time and money
is through the 'Cambly' app.
Before I give you the Bonus Tip, remember I told
you that I'll show you how Cambly works.
So this is how the app looks like,
you can see the list of the tutors
and where are they from.
Check out their profile and
start talking to them like this...
So that's how easy it is to talk to someone through Cambly
and yes this video is sponsored by them.
But you know that I do not accept sponsorship requests unless I really believe in the product
and I think Cambly is a great way to
talk to new people and learn how to speak confidently
especially when you are preparing for exams like IELTS.
And I even got a discount for you.
Go to the subscription page and type the Promo Code, 'theurbanfight' and
you'll get a flat 30% discount on all of the packages.
I really hope it works out for you.
Look, being nervous is not new to you.
You were nervous on your first day of school,
you were nervous when you first rode the bike,
you were nervous when you gave your first exam.
But now, all of that nervousness is under your control, right?
You know why?
