Pivotal Presentations Practice Tips

TRUST!

My sister met a woman at a business function who was very appealing - successful, smart and generous.  She told my sister that God wants us to be happy.  She said the universe is so perfectly designed that the instant we ask for something God gives it to us. 
 
But the problem is we don't believe that we are worthy enough to receive, or it doesn't look like we imagined it, or we think it must be for someone else.  We don't trust ourselves - and so we don't realize that we have received just what we were looking for or something even better.
 
Sometimes when we are making a presentation we feel stuck.  Though many thoughts of what to say in that moment to that audience come to us, we waste time trying to decide whether these words will be good enough.  We panic instead of trusting that the right words are the words we have been given in that moment.
 
We stop and stumble, searching for other words, ruminating - looking for the words we planned to say or "better" words.  This habit of distrusting ourselves breaks the flow of our communication and the relationship we have with our audience.  We become self-conscious and self-critical rather than open and sharing.
 
We must learn to trust that the perfect words will come to us when we need them, perfect for this moment with this audience, accepting the gift of these words as a blessing. Only then can we be free to be fully present with our audiences.
 
And then we will flow, we will shine, and our audiences will experience that truly divine feeling of presence.
