The power of a good speech is almost unparallel to anything else, a good speech can make huge changes in societies, bring conflicts to an end and start revolutions. Maybe you are not interested in this kind of speech making, but a good speaker will have the ability to move any obstacle he wants on his way to making his point clearly understood. The speech making ability is not only something that is a gift, it is something that can be learned and acquired. Many look up to famous speakers to be their roll models and inspiration.
Some people may claim that people have become famous in public speaking simply because they have the confidence and knowledge enough to be so certain of their ideas within everybody’s hearing. Yes, public speaking could be a good combination of wit and self esteem. But have you ever given it a thought that even the famous public speakers were initially afraid of the stage itself?
Public speaking is not something that you are born with. It is something that you must develop. If, as a child, you were oriented that a speech in front of a couple of people is something you must be anxious of then you might find it hard to realize yourself...
