Are you scared of expressing yourself in public? Do you want to give a killer presentation? No problem at all, just follow these few simple steps to deliver a presentation that won't put your audience to sleep. 

The night before your presentation, have a good night sleep and then in the morning have a healthy breakfast. Before your presentation drink plenty of water in small intervals. As sounds from your dry mouth is going to annoy your audience.

You need to research about your audience so that you speak accordingly. Once you do that, focus on your content. Include personal stories or experiences so that people can relate to them. One thing which I consider while delivering my presentation is to smile because it makes you look smart.

If you want to persuade your audience, look them in the eyes. It’s similar to talking to someone. Staring at only one person throughout the whole presentation will indeed make others bored. So, manage to scan the room evenly.

Practice like crazy. Know you content and relevant vocabulary. Don’t read from paper or slides as it gives an impression that you are nervous. Rehearse while standing in front of a mirror so that you can observe your non-verbal communication as well.

Don’t feel confident? Fake it!
Before delivering your presentation focus on your breathing (it would help you relax). Try to avoid negative thoughts, give yourself a positive feedback like “I can do this.” and “I'm so excited to share my thoughts and ideas ."
