Before I discovered this, I used to put incredible pressure on myself to deliver a perfect performance. I worked for days to prepare a talk. I stayed up nights worrying about making mistakes. I spent hours and hours rehearsing what I was going to say. And you know what? All this did was to make me even more anxious. The more perfect I tried to be, the worse I did. It was all very disheartening, not to mention unnecessary. The essence of public speaking is this: give your audience something of value. That's all there is to it. If people in your audience walk away with something of value, they will consider you a success. If they walk away feeling better about themselves, feeling better about some job they have to do, they will consider you a success. If they walk away feeling happy or entertained, they will consider their time with you worthwhile.
我在發(fā)現(xiàn)這個道理之前曾經(jīng)為了一個完美的表現(xiàn)給自己施加了難以想象的壓力。我曾花好多天準備一篇演講。有好幾個夜晚我徹夜未眠只是擔心會犯錯誤。我花了好幾個小時做演講排練。然后你猜怎么著?這一切只讓我更著急!我越是想做的完美,結(jié)果越是糟糕!沒有比這更令人沮喪不過的了,先不說我沒有必要這樣做。公眾演講的本質(zhì),就是:給你的觀眾有價值的東西。這就是所有的東西。如果你的聽眾帶走一些有價值的東西,他們會認為你的演講是一個成功。如果他們離開時對自己以及他們不得不做的工作感覺良好,他們會認為你的演講是一個成功。如果他們離開時感到快樂或享受,他們會認為這段時間很有價值。
