Hi, my name is Joseph Clough, bestselling author of Be Your Potential. Now, on this video today,

I'm going to give you tips to be able to be a powerful speaker.

I know this from personal experience, so whether you're an actor or you want more, if you

experience stage fright, and you want to feel more confident, it could be in meetings, it

could be in public speaking, literally anything where you're in front of people and you've been feeling a bit

of pressure or some stage fright, some fear and some anxiety, I'm going to give you the instant

tips to be able to help you be powerful, to have presence in how you communicate effectively.

I know this from personal experience because as a child all way up from my teenage years,

I used to be so self-conscious and so anxious, speaking to anyone almost.

In the small groups, always anxious.

In meetings, always anxious.

I used to blush all the time, and I know exactly how to get over it because now I speak in front of 500 or

so people so I know how to let go of this and it's going to be pretty simple. I'm not going to

say it's a miracle. However, if you apply these tips, you'll be able to change how you perform,

how you begin to feel powerful and have presence

in who you are. One of the first ideas I want to get across to you is that when people have

fears of public speaking, they feel very associated. They feel as if everyone's looking at them

and you almost get into

tunnel vision. I know I personally experience that and it's a very common theme when it comes

to public speaking. We feel as if everyone's energy is just zoned in on us and we just feel

paralyzed by that. Now you see is what do we have to do is break outside of that

because we're in a very associated experience.
