I have a speech coming up, I get nervous easily.
Best ways to stay calm?
 
Look straight ahead and try not to look at people's faces, also make sure if you have prompt cards or a script then don't keep looking at it. Also if you make a mistake then don't panic just move on to your next point. Don't think about it too much before you go up.The problem is in the worrying about it. By the time you get up to do it, you're panicking. Take deep breaths before you go up as well.
 
Look at the top's of people's heads. Don't act nervous. Just read your paper and occasionally look up. Hope you do good! And remember, BREATH!
 
Look at the back of the room and look around like your actually talking to everyone.
 
Don't make eye contact, byt look at people. Also you need to just be confident, and if you mess up just continue with your speech.
 
What usually works with me is , think Posertive and take deep breathes .

Yeah, thinking posertive usually does the trick with me as well...
 
Thanks guys, I usually have a problem breathing when I'm really nervous so it takes me like 10 seconds to breath :/
