3. WHAT IS PUBLIC SPEAKING ?
I view public speaking as inherently opportunistic: If you’re speaking
“in public” (i.e. to a group of people) you’re trying to communicate a
message, inform, educate influence, entertain. Whether it’s for
work/school, or perhaps a competition or TED Talk. No matter what,
you are on your way to potentially benefitting from this act, so you
should begin by viewing this as an opportunity, not a ‘situation.’

 You just allow people to take the space when they speak
 You listen to the speaker for a while but you also think
about other things.
 You just look gently at the speaker

don’t notice or don’t care.
