RE: Weekend-engagement topic week 46: Your first... [win hive for your comment]

Thanks @trangbaby for letting me know this interesting topic.
In our life, we have so many first times
I remember vividly the first time I did a public speaking presentation at university. When I was a freshman, I had a fear of speaking in public.
My major was English at school, that means I did a lot of talks, presentations. I was so nervous 😒at all the time, how to make eye-contact with others, how to use body language and avoid staring at the screen.

My first presentation was "Marketing research about a product". I was very well-prepared for every slide of PowerPoint, designing banner, visit cards, ...
I felt very anxious and depressed about the day after when I spoke in front of large groups of people. 😌 My heart beated very fast, my face turned into red,..
Fortunately, my presentation was so successful even though it was not completely perfect.
Until now, I must say that I'm totally confident when talking in public.😋😋
I think a fear of public speaking is a common phobia with many people like me.

"Practice makes perfect."

I was gonna ask which is you in the photo, right or left, but quickly realized this is a public platform and I'm overwhelmed by all these flying things in my abdomen.

Public speaking is something that makes so many people uncomfortable and for those people the first time is always the most difficult. I think it get's easier over time although some people never get over the fear.

I think is the first time you've come by the #weekend-engagement topic so welcome aboard!

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

Public speaking is a skill not many poses and it's hard to develop, you need to learn to read the crowd and engage every single person no matter the size. I love public speaking but alot of people call me a freak. I'm also able to walk upto anyone and start a conversation. I'm even able to engage with someone on a personal level with in the first few seconds and few words that are spoken. Males me extremely effective at my job.

Your fears are common but as you practise more and learn you will become great at it.

haha, I understand your feelings at the first times em, but you did good job! you learnt day by day and true that "practice makes perfect" 💛
