Public Speaking Can Easily Be Done Even For Introverts
For the introverts and those who hate public speaking.
Preparing for a class has evolved so much for me in the past year or so and has become so much easier and less stressful. If you’re a little introverted and don’t care for public speaking, you might appreciate this. And hey, there might be a little something in it for you extroverts as well.
I used to write detailed notes and scripts for anything I was going to record with my voice or speak in public. As a writer, I knew I could put together a great presentation that hit on all the right points and included all the right stories.
It was a lot of work. The end result was often pretty polished (unless I was on camera or in person then no…not polished at all lol), but inevitably I would trip on my words somewhere or technology would flub me up and my true awkward self would appear.
Over the past year or so, I’ve made a commitment to ditch the scripts and forget the detailed notes and just let things flow. I might have slides that cue me on what to say or bullet points note to help me out, but mostly I fly by the seat of my pants.
As many people told me when I struggled with public speaking, I know my material. I should just deliver it.
And you know what? I still trip over my words and technology and my true awkward self appears. Every. Time.
Lol, but it’s a lot less work and it’s an incredible skill I’ve learned. Just to speak on something and let it flow.
Most importantly, it’s a LOT LESS stressful. I just get ‘er done and that’s that. Wouldn’t speaking without stressing about it be such a blessing?
And of course, I could take courses to polish that up, but it’s not in the cards for me right now as I’m focusing on other things.
But I love awkward me. It’s part of my charm, I’m sure because you guys keep showing up for my classes and for that, I am most grateful.
