"Lose My Fear of Speaking" - Your New Year Resolution?

Submitted by Dee on Mon, 09/01/2012 - 18:05

Have you made any New Year’s Resolutions?

  • ‘I’m going to be more confident’

  • ‘I’m going to stop eating chocolate’

  •  ‘I’m going to work harder’

  • And what I hear a lot is ‘I’m going to get over my fear of speaking’

I’m sure some of you are nodding in agreement with at least one of the above!

I've been busy setting my business goals for this year and my new book ‘Taming your Public Speaking Monkeys’ discusses why, goal setting is so important.

If you want to get over your fear of speaking the the new book is designed just for you. In addition to helping you to do that, it also takes an in depth look at how goals help you clarify your direction and increase your chances of success in all sorts of things.

Goal setting should really be called ‘how to reach your goals more often’ – because we often find that reaching them is the challenge. In the book once you have “Tamed your Monkeys” we finish with advice on goal setting so you can be really clear on what you want to achieve after the fear has gone. The advice once learnt, is applicable to all sorts of aspects of your life. I go through setting advanced SMART goals:

  • S          Specific and Said in the positive 
  • M          Measurable
  • A          Achievable with Action (by you)
  • R          Realistic and with Respect 
  • T           Timed and as if it is TRUE

Specific, for example is the What and Why.

WHAT are you going to do, have or achieve and WHY do you want to do this? This doesn’t just work for taming those Public Speaking Monkeys – it can be used when the New Year’s Resolution motivation starts to fade! See chapter 9 of the book for full details.
