The latest tips I've posted to TipDrop.
| Focus your attention primarily on your audience and their needs, rather than on how you feel about public speaking. In doing so, you have les s"emotional bandwidth" for nerves, and much more chance of delighting your audience. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Remember that the bigger your goal, the greater the need to break down the journey towards it into the smaller steps that will combine to amke it happen. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Match the force and energy level behind what they're saying (so that they feel you've really, "got the message") but with zero aggression and 100% concern, compassion, and desire to understand what's really driving them. Tip Credibility: 6 |
| Sometimes people get worried that hypnosis is "unnatural" in some way. In fact, it just uses naturally occuring states we all experience everyday, eg when watching TV or surfing the Net. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Imagine in your mind that you ar already confident. Feel what it would be like if you were. Make statements of coinfidence to yourself, eg. "I can do this-I am confident". Then the body language will follow. Tip Credibility: 3 |
| Be careful at the outset with the commitments you make. A "no" at the start is better than a failure to follow through with a "yes". But once committed, do exactly what you've said you'll do. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Allow yourself to do (at least) one thing each day that truly makes *you* happy. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Change doesn't have to be a "leap in the dark". For adults, "blended change", where you run two paths side by side before switching completely to the new one, often works better, and is *much* less stressful. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Perfection is a mirage-the goalposts will always move. Instead keep remembering that everyone (including you) is always doing the best they can, and act from that perspective. Tip Credibility: 4 |

| Be clear about what you want. Really imagine and luxuriate in the thought of it. And then, let go of the need of, "having to have it," and watch what happens. Tip Credibility: 6 |
| Imagine it is one, five, 10, or even 50 years from now. Ask yourself whether this issue will still matter when that much time has passed, and you'll instantly have a greater sense of perspective on it. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Look for what you like and appreciate in others, and then they will automatically find you more likeable in return. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Create a vision for what you want to achieve in so much detail that you can actually imagine it as if it were already happening. This keeps you vibrant and magnetic, gives others something exciting to follow, whilst making results more tangible. Tip Credibility: 5 |
| List your options, A, B, C, etc. Pretend-just to yourself-that you've decided upon option A, and see how thta feels for a day. Repeat with each option in turn. Then pick the option that felt best when you, "tried it for size". Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Allow yourself to feel as you feel.Then, really notice what it's like when you feel sad. Where in your body are any sensations located? Are any sounds or phrases associated with it? What can you learn from the feeling, to move towards feeling better? Tip Credibility: 5 |
| Remember a time when you told a story to people who enjoyed it, or had a conversation with people who responsed positively to you. Public speaking is simply an extension of this same skill you've already demonstrated. Dare yourself to enjoy it. Tip Credibility: 2 |
| Work out why you keep putting things off. Is it fear, lack of information, genuine misgivings, or wanting to do something else even more? Then deal with the root cause of your procrastination. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| If you can imagine, deeply, how you would feel, going through a complete day with a person who's perfect for you, and then repeat this for 2 minutes each day, you're already well on the way to meeting/recognising that person. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Someone else can only love you to the extent that you love yourself. Anything more and you'll most likely disbelieve that they love you at all. So "loving yourself" isn't a cheesy cliche-it's crucial. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Remember that thinking about things you love, and treating others in a loving way, puts you in touch with a loving vibe. This will help you feel great *and* automatically others towards you-and help you stay in love then too. Tip Credibility: 4 |
