JohanO20486yI once had to hold a 60min tech. presentation for 500+ people and was also very nervous but got some great advice from a colleague who had been serving in the UN-forces somewhere in the middle-east in a previous life. He put things in perspective and asked me:
- (him): "What is the worst thing that can happen?"
- (me): "Well, I forget what to say, start stutter and making a bad performance"
- (him): "Yeah, true. But still, the audience will probably not pull out machineguns and mow you down for it. In fact, I doubt they would even grab & torture you, cutting off fingers, break your arms&legs, electrocute you or anything" -
olback107946y@AleCx04 I had a speech as part of my Swedish class. Nothing big really, I just get so damn nervous.

try mindfulness, if it doesn't work, well, it's zero energy cost anyways...
