• according to body language, standing upright with your shoulders stretched and with neither your arms nor your legs crossed makes you appear confident if not over confident, after all people at the presentation aren't going to notice that you are afraid except from your body language ( gestures and voice tones ) , controlling your body languages makes you appear much confident although you may be feeling something else , so as long as you hide it well , no one knows about it!! Confident body language won't only make you more in control but it will also make you more attractive to the audience, in my book How to make someone fall in love with you i described how using confident body language can make people admire you and even fall in love with you
• eye contact should be distributed among the audience, if one of the audience have got higher weight that the others , for example being the one who will evaluate you then make sure to give him more eye contact , this will leave a positive impression .
• if there are many people watching you and you cant make an eye contact with each one, just divide the place they are sitting at into logical squares and make sure that each square gets some eye contact, on doing so each individual will think that you are looking at him.
• if you too shy to look at someone's eye , then know that looking at the area called positive area of eye contact at his face will make him think that you are looking at his eye even if you are looking at his nose, the positive area of eye contact is an inverted triangle with its base passing through the two eyes and its top at the nose tip , look anywhere in that triangle to give an impression that you are looking at the eye .
• when you are making a presentation you are dealing with many kind of stresses that prevent you from performing well, one of the stresses is thinking whether are you going to remember the words you are going to say or not, so why not eliminate this stress before you go for the presentation? study it by hard word by word at least until you get used to making speeches.
• smiling or laughing could make your stress go down to half, if there is any chance of saying something funny then go for it, it will help you much .
• if your problem is fear of public speaking in general make sure that you take a look at the ultimate guide for fear of public speaking
