    i dont really care about the audience tho, I think it's just my body.

    So far, I only have pet neutering as a suggested topic, not really interested.

    Other recommendations please??
    Something simple and will interest any type of audience.

    You can not wait until the last night next time!
    You have to be ready. You have to be prepared!
    You can not procrastinate!

    The more prepared you are, the better you will do on speech day.
    You have to know your material frontwards and backwards.

    You have to become an expert on your subject. Act like an expert,
    feel like an expert, look like an expert.

    Here is how I reduce my stress before a speech or anything that gives me anxiety: Deep belly breathing. Inhale through your nose and down into your belly. Hold it for about 7 seconds. Exhale through your mouth for 8 seconds. Repeat many times as you release the tension from your body, especially your upper shoulders, back & neck.

    Learn "The Rule of the Nine P's":

    "Prior proper planning prevents pitiful pathetic piss-poor performance"

    Yeah thanks, I don't plan to procrastinate this time.

    I don't want to present on the elections because of bias opinions.

    Any neutral topics out there?? I'm trying to think but the river is dry :(
    Please suggest persuasive topics I can present on. (problem, cause, solution)

    Hello -

    How about, "Fear of Public Speaking?" as a topic?

    You have intimate knowledge about the subject. You can relate.

    You have 1st hand experience.

    To be successful at public speaking - it's only one word: practice. In front of your mirror, in front of good friends, in front of ... The point is - with those multiple sets of eyes on you - worry sets in. Such as, "Do I look good?", Am I speaking loud enough? Are these people laughing at me? How will I look?"

    No one likes to be judged and public speaking seems to bring this out.

    When you practice your material and know it without notes - you're on your way to having a successful presentation.

    Acknowledge the fear, however, do it anyway.

    Enjoy the ride.

    Nicholas

    i guess this is the best topic you can present
    - you counter your fears
    - plus stop moving your hands

    good topic must be used

    lol, did you even watch my YouTube video???
    This was what my informative speech was about.

    I've had enough words of wisdom and motivation, Thanks!
    Now, it's time to get to work again.

    Now, I need a simple PERSUASIVE topic (problem, cause, solution)
    I really need help with this. I can't think of anything.
    At this rate, I might procrastinate again :(
    I seriously feel like an Epic Fail.

    I remember the one and only time that I have to make a speech in front of the class in college. I am a little on the shy side so I knew I will not be able to do it well. I had to do something so I chose a topic that I knew from the heart. This will eradicate the uhms and ahh during the speech. I suggest you do the same. At least if you forget something, you can just make up the next few lines.

    well frnds you may be right , but my idea is that in front of mirror , you dnt get any reaction, comment or criticism

    - so presenting your idea infront of your frnds, brother etc will serve the purpose well

    i wellcome your ideas too, but m thinking somthing different for long term

    The thing is I have no idea what to be persuasive about.
    I'm not the type of person to force my beliefs on anyone.
    So I desperately need help with this one.

    Persuasive topic recommendations please!!!
    Only 15 days left!
