????4. 放慢講話速度。

????當(dāng)你緊張的時(shí)候，加快的不僅僅是你的心跳。你說(shuō)話的速度也會(huì)加快。斯涅克表示，幸運(yùn)的是，聽(tīng)眾比我們想象的更有耐心，更善解人意。

????他說(shuō)道：“他們希望你的演講成功，但你說(shuō)話的速度越快，就會(huì)越讓人失望。如果你安靜一小會(huì)兒，深吸一口氣，他們會(huì)耐心等你開(kāi)始。這真是令人驚訝。”

????斯涅克認(rèn)為，演講時(shí)語(yǔ)速太慢是不可能的?！澳阏驹谥v臺(tái)上，以每個(gè)字間隔幾秒鐘的速度說(shuō)話，而人們還會(huì)耐...心...等...你...說(shuō)...完，這聽(tīng)起來(lái)幾乎是不可能的。但事實(shí)就是這樣。”

????5. 忽視反對(duì)者。

????對(duì)于那些皺著眉頭、交叉雙臂或搖頭否定的人，不要放在心上。只關(guān)注自己的支持者即可——那些明顯沉浸在演講當(dāng)中，喜歡你的演講并且頻頻點(diǎn)頭肯定的人。相比努力說(shuō)服反對(duì)者，如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)有聽(tīng)眾與你產(chǎn)生了積極的互動(dòng)，你會(huì)更加自信和放松。

????6. 化緊張為興奮。

????斯涅克在看奧運(yùn)會(huì)比賽的時(shí)候?qū)W會(huì)了這一點(diǎn)。幾年前，他注意到記者在比賽前后采訪奧運(yùn)會(huì)選手的時(shí)候，問(wèn)了同樣的問(wèn)題?！澳憔o張嗎？”所有運(yùn)動(dòng)員都給出了同樣的答案：“不，我很興奮?！边@些選手正在將緊張釋放的身體信號(hào)——潮濕的雙手、砰砰直跳的心臟和緊繃的神經(jīng)——重新解讀成興奮和愉悅的副作用。

????當(dāng)你走上講臺(tái)的時(shí)候，你可能會(huì)有同樣的經(jīng)歷。此時(shí)，斯涅克認(rèn)為，你應(yīng)該大聲對(duì)自己說(shuō)：“我不緊張，我很興奮！”

????斯涅克說(shuō)道：“之后你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，這真的能產(chǎn)生不可思議的效果，它會(huì)幫助你改變心態(tài)。”

????7. 結(jié)束時(shí)說(shuō)聲謝謝。

????掌聲是聽(tīng)眾給你的禮物，而在收到禮物時(shí)，你應(yīng)該表達(dá)自己的感激之情。所以，斯涅克總是會(huì)以兩個(gè)雖然簡(jiǎn)單但極其強(qiáng)大的字作為演講的結(jié)束語(yǔ)：謝謝。

????斯涅克說(shuō)道：“聽(tīng)眾付出了時(shí)間，并且贈(zèng)予你掌聲。這便是他們的禮物，你必須報(bào)以感激?！?/p>

????4. Speak unusually slowly.

????When you get nervous, it’s not just your heart beat that quickens. You’re words also tend to speed up. Luckily Sinek says audiences are more patient and forgiving then we know.

????“They want you to succeed up there, but the more you rush, the more you turn them off,” he says. “If you just go quiet for a moment and take a long, deep breath, they’ll wait for you. It’s kind of amazing.”

????Sinek believes it’s impossible to speak too slowly on stage. “It’s incredible that you can stand on stage and speak so slowly that there are several seconds between each of your words and people… will… hang… on… your… every… word. It really works.”

????5. Ignore the naysayers.

????Dismiss the people furrowing their brows, crossing their arms or shaking their heads “no.” Instead, focus only on your supporters — the people who are visibly engaged, enjoying your presentation and nodding “yes.” If you find the audience members who are positively interacting with you, you’ll be much more confident and relaxed than if you try to convince the naysayers.

????6. Turn nervousness into excitement.

????Sinek learned this trick from watching the Olympics. A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question. “Were you nervous?” And all of the athletes gave the same answer: “No, I was excited.” These competitors were taking the body’s signs of nervousness — clammy hands, pounding heart and tense nerves — and reinterpreting them as side effects of excitement and exhilaration.

????When you’re up on stage you will likely go through the same thing. That’s when Sinek says you should say to yourself out loud, “I’m not nervous, I’m excited!”

????“When you do, it really has a miraculous impact in helping you change your attitude to what you’re about to do,” Sinek says.

????7. Say thank you when you’re done.

????Applause is a gift, and when you receive a gift, it’s only right to express how grateful you are for it. This is why Sinek always closes out his presentations with these two simple yet powerful words: thank you.

????“They gave you their time, and they’re giving you their applause.” Says Sinek. “That’s a gift, and you have to be grateful.”
