fear and panic. Some people also start shaking or
suffer from trembling hands and a quavering voice

Is it your first time appearing for
public speaking? Well! It's
normal to have a racing heart or
trembling hands. It is normal as
most candidates often go
through these moments even if
they have appeared a thousand
times for group discussions. Do
not equate these sentiments
with the fear of a bad experience
or performance.

Work on your Timing
Always put forth your opinion if
you find it correct and stronger
than the opponent. Play smart
and find a perfect way to turn the
tables on your side during the
ongoing discussion. Do not wait
for the right time as you have to
make one for yourself by
speaking up when needed. Make
sure your entry must be empathic
enough to attract everyone's
attention.

Do Not Miss Out on Working
on Your Body Language
Enthusiastic participation and
confidence leave a lasting impression
on the authorities. Make sure to sit
straight, make eye contact, and
express thoughts with gestures and
confidence. With positive body
language, you feel energetic and have
better convincing powers. But, ensure
not to go overboard with gestures as it
can go against you
