Resolve to avoid all public speaking.- Realize this is not a sustainable resolution; resolve to mostly avoid public speaking.
- Do great at Resolution #2 until someone at work tells you that you have to present at a meeting in two weeks. Resolve to ignore this for at least one week.
- The meeting is tomorrow. You panicked for the whole two weeks. Resolve to just get through this presentation.
- The presentation is behind you, but the anxiety leading up to it was awful. Resolve never to feel that kind of panic again.
- Resolve to quell your fear of public speaking. You take a measured and deliberate approach: you prepare ahead of time, practice in low-stakes situations, get positive feedback, and remember that your job as a speaker is to create an experience for your audience.
- Resolve to do more public speaking, since you’re awesome at it! Happy 2016!!
