Don't worry; it'll be good for you!
My October blog post deals with the less lustrous side of those surprise "golden opportunities."
Thanks to all of you have shown interest in my workshops. And a special "thank you" to those who have passed workshop information on to others. I am anticipating a very busy December, so I will offer 2014's final one-day workshops in November. More info here.
Tips you can use!
Use second person for pep talks
When you need to give yourself a confidence boost before you present, do not talk to yourself as "I" but rather "you." Using your name with a sincere "you can do it" gives more positive reinforcement than an "'I've got this." Try it!
Honor your punctuation
You knew it was right to put a period at the end of that sentence. You indented or double-spaced to indicate a new paragraph. So deliver your speech that way! Your listeners need to hear those transitions since they can't see them.

Don't wear tight shoes
Or tight skirts or tight collars or anything else that constricts you. When you sacrifice comfort for a sleeker silhouette, your audience and conversation partners can see it on your face. It's hard to relax when your feet are killing you!
