if you speak something enough you will eventually believe it
tell everyone your good at public speaking, say it like you mean it, tell yourself at random times, you will have a little boost of confidence just off that by crunch time.

i fuckin hate it, but in the end you feel like a million dollars. when you're walking up there you might be nervous as fuck, but after a couple minutes into it your heart rate will start to calm down and get adjusted to the situation. then you will be comfortable and say fuck it. at least that's how it is for me. the hardest part is walking up and doing the opening statement.

I'm an instructor in the Air Force and when I first started I was scared as fuck. After doing it a few times though I got used to it. Really though the best way to get over it is to just do it. The more times you do it the easier it gets. Most important though is to just know what you're speaking on. When you're briefing shit you know like the back of your hand it makes it VERY easy.

So my advice is to practice as much as possible in front of anyone that will listen and study the shit your speakin on and you'll be fine.

I hate it.

But usually, it's easier if I really know what I'm talking about. They you don't really have to worried about messing up and you can be more confident in front of an audience. Confidence is pretty much the key...how you get it is up to you...I dont know how much a book can help you on that.
