You will probably be required to make a presentation to a class, group of managers or professors, other employees, or a group of people at work whether you are in high school, college, your career, or all three. For many of us, the idea of getting up in front of our peers and giving a presentation might cause a full-blown panic attack. Many of us struggle with the highly prevalent fear of public speaking. Use the advice below to successfully deliver your next presentation while you battle this fear
Prepare for your presentation by being familiar with the topic you'll be presenting.
➣ Practice, Practice, Practice
Make careful to practise your speech a lot before giving it to make sure you're adhering to any time restrictions without exceeding your given time or speaking too quickly. Request permission to practise in front of a friend or member of your family, and ask for feedback on how you did.
➣ Incorporation and Attention-Grabbing introduction
On the day of your presentation, grab the attention of your audience with a humorous tale, astute quotation, piece of recent news, or a personal allusion
➣ Make eye contact
Grab the audience's attention the day of your presentation with an amusing story, witty quote, bit of current events, or a personal allusion.
➣ Speak clearly and audibly
You must find your voice and talk well enough to be heard in order to demand people's attention. Speaking a little bit too loudly is preferable to speaking inaudibly.
➣ Move around
While it may be tempting to remain hidden behind the lectern, moving a few feet to the front or side of it allows you to interact with your audience. By shifting your position and facing various directions in the room, you can draw the audience's attention to you and direct it in your direction.
➣ Breathe deeply
You might feel nervous or lose focus at some point throughout your presentation. Pause, take a deep breath, gather your thoughts, and picture yourself conveying your message successfully.
➣ Use natural gestures
Your speech gains personality by using suitable body language and hand gestures. Allow your hands to express themselves naturally.
➣ Speak with feelings
Avoid speaking in a flat, monotone, expressionless manner. Change the pitch of your voice instead. To portray emotion and a level of intensity, use your eyes and facial movements. You may better engage your audience by delivering your message with emotion and life.
➣ Allow some time to question and answer period
Asking the audience for questions is polite and helps you build rapport with your listeners. Additionally, it conveys the idea that you are an authority on the issue. If there is time, answer two or three audience questions while keeping your responses concise. Keep in mind that you are the subject matter expert on the matter at hand in your brief capacity as the speaker.
➣ Use visual aids and handouts when needed
Your speaking points or a list of the most important questions you intend to answer can be outlined in visual aids or handouts. It may be preferable to hold off on handing out handouts until after your presentation is over because they occasionally serve to draw focus away from you.
Performing daily Ganesh Aarti at home brings peace and positivity. Start by setting up a clean, decorated space for Lord Ganesha, prepare an aarti thali with diya, flowers, and incense, and maintain a fixed time for prayer. Sing the Ganesh Aarti with devotion, offer sweets like modaks as prasad, and involve family members to create a divine and joyful atmosphere.
Exploring the desert is thrilling but demands preparation. Stay hydrated (at least 4L/day), wear light clothing, and travel during cooler hours.

With the right planning, you can survive—and thrive—in the heat!
