Most people suffer from what's known as Glossophobia, or stage fright, when called on to make a toast at a wedding, or any situation we are called on to speak in public, our knees get weak, we get butterflies in our stomach's, our palms start to sweat and the words come out sounding like were from outer space. If this sounds like you, don't worry because you are not alone, millions of people have the Fear of public speaking. Comedian Jerry Seinfeld says " when it comes to funerals, most people would rather be the one in the casket, than the one giving the eulogy". Good news! Help is on the way. The fear that you have of public speaking, is basically, an imaginary factor, and anything imagined, can be unimagined. Was it former President Roosevelt who said "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself". You can learn to be a fearless, more confidant speaker, the famed football coach Vince Lombardi said "The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand." ~ Vince Lombardi
