Hot tip to reduce nerves before a presentation: It's NOT about you.

By shifting your focus to the audience and the value you'll provide them, this reduces your nerves because you're no longer focusing on you.

I literally stopped fearing public speaking the second you said stop being selfish, I understood everything and in my mind I immediately knew I wouldn’t fear public speaking as long as I keep thinking about the audience and how I can help them

This is so true. We are so much concerned about ourself that we forget we are there to add value to others. Serve, just serve.

Vinh summarized what took me 25 years to figure out. And he inspired me to public speaking to another level!

Ones self conscious is the biggest hindrance to the physical actions

The nerves start to calm themselves down ❤❤❤

This advice is gold! What also helped me is knowing that everyone in the audience wants you to succeed, they are not sitting there hoping you stuff up, they are all barracking for you.

Great tip! Shifting the focus from oneself to the audience and the value being provided is a powerful way to reduce nerves before a presentation. It helps in keeping perspective and delivering with confidence.

My grandpa had a saying "always have something in your basket". When you are asked to talk in front of people always have something insightful and meaningful to share with those people

This is some solid advice. Reminds me of Jay Shettys advice on service. And how serving others brings meaning and purpose to our lives and removes the focus on self.

Or, alternatively, you can potentially focus on your purpose if it’s easier to think about that instead. A mindset of “man on a mission” - it at least helps in cases where you are afraid of others judging you, which can also contribute to fear of public speech. I noticed it helps me to not care about others’ opinions and judgement (or convictions as a byproduct of judgements) by shifting my focus on the here and now and, most importantly, on the importance of what I am doing. What I am doing is too important to let others influence it in a negative way, so why should I even allow others to control it if it brings me more harm than good? I don’t know these people, so whose to say that what they think is relevant? Questions like that.

As an example: you want to go to a gym to become healthy due to obesity. However, you always feel like others are watching you and judging you. Are you exercising because of your peers? No, you are doing this for yourself. Other people are irrelevant to your goal, and more than likely you are to them as well for the same goals: health and well being.

As I said: you get into the mindset of someone on a mission that would not get deterred from the right path. If soldiers can carry out their missions and not care who thinks what because their mission is too important and it NEEDS to be done, then why can’t we?

Thousands thanks Vinh

It's so true! I always get nervous when I'm doing a presentation of 10min for an exam. But I deliver lectures of 2hrs without any problem. I always wondered why & I think I found the reason. When it's all about others your nerves are calm but the more you focus on yourself you get nervous!

I have autism and have been using your videos to help me present myself better to people for lack of better terms so I really appreciate the work that you're doing keep it up

This is so beyond true. Never thought about it as me being a vehicle for the audience but that is exactly what it is like, just like a comedian.

[seanmerlyn]

Everything you say is incredibly eye opening!

[ManolisPolychronides]

Well put! Communication is about (and should be more of) sharing value! When you give value by sharing, fear is replaced by caring 😌
