Nervous about presenting? What you tell yourself matters!

Here's a game-changing concept, just for those of you who get nervous about presentations or taking centre stage in meetings.

It's all about changing our mindset and giving different meanings to those little things that happen during our talks.

Imagine this:

You're up there, doing your thing, and you spot someone in the audience looking a bit uninterested or sneakily checking their watch.

Our knee-jerk reaction is usually to assume they're not into it, right?

But guess what, we've got the power to switch things up.

We can decide to tell ourselves a different tale.

Maybe they had a wild night out,

maybe life's throwing them curveballs,

or they've got a whole lot on their plate.

None of this takes away from the awesomeness of your presentation.

Trust me, there are a million reasons why someone might seem less engaged.

The truth is:

It's all about the story we craft that shapes our reality.

The meaning we give to the situation defines how we feel.

And I can bet you a cup of coffee, it's hardly ever about your content being shit or your message falling flat.

So, next time those butterflies start doing the tango in your stomach while presenting, just pause and rethink the story you're spinning.

It's a total game-changer. 🚀
