Editor's Notes
- Become expert on the subject; Through Research is required! Research until you feel that you can effectively give a presentation on your subject and answer any questions that will arise along the way. If you're more confident, you'll be better at giving your presentation.
- Tea, Meditation or Go for a Walk
- Anecdote: A short and amusing or interesting story about a real incident or person.
- If you tell your audience that a healthy diet is the key to a happy life but have no evidence to back it up, why should they believe you?
- You want to make each and every person feel that you're talking to him or her so that the person feels that your presentation can actually benefit him or her.
