One of the biggest causes of public speaking fear and nervousness is having too much time in between each speech. I mentioned last week that if you only drove a car once a year, each time you got behind the wheel, you'd be nervous.

If you are a comfortable driver, it is because you get behind the wheel pretty often.

It is the same with public speaking. The more often you present, the more comfortable you will be each time. So last week, I began a two-part series on venues where you can practice speaking in front of a group.

We started with a few virtual venues that were the least risky. Those were fantastic speaking venues to get started in. As your confidence grows, try presenting in the speaking venues we cover this week. The more you practice, the less nervous you will become when you present.
