Public Speaking Masterpost

I’m horrible at making thumbnails lol

As I personally am HORRIFIED of public speaking/presenting, I decided I would scour both the entire public speaking and presenting tag, to find as many useful posts as possible, as compile them all into one big post, so I can come back to this whenever I need to give a presentation

I’ve added a little star (*) to my favourite posts in the list. Although all are useful, these are the once I use the most and come back to often to re-read.

My way of explaining DNA-replication/DNA Replikation. :D

I see a lot of positivity posts about 12-year-olds just learning to draw.  Posts cautioning us to be mindful of 11-year-olds with no grasp of anatomy and 13-year-olds whose characters are all the same person with different hair and clothes, and I love those posts.  Those are great posts.  Keep those posts coming, tumblr.

But can I ask, what about the 25-year-old who just bought their first ever sketchbook?  What about the 32-year-old who’s been drawing for a month and has just about got the hang of a human-looking face?  What about the 67-year-old who finally has time to sit down and learn how to paint like they’ve always wanted?

Not everyone starts drawing as a child.  Not everyone learned as a preteen.  Some people start in college.  Some people start when their career is going well and they feel like it’s time for a new hobby.  Some people start after they’ve retired.

Not all beginner artists are kids, and I just thing the adults ones deserve some encouragement, too.

Stress

This is to all the kids out there who are stressing out about something:

1. Stop what you’re doing. STOP. 

2. Why are you stressed? 

3. Take a deep breath and close your eyes. 

4. Take another deep breath. 

5. Is it really worth stressing over this? 

6. Open your eyes and look at wherever you are. 

7. Do you want to tell your future kids that this is what you did? Stressed? Or that you conquered obstacles without much stress? 

8. Drink a class of water of eat something. 

9. Clean your desk/bed/room/wherever you are right now. 

10. Get back to what you were stressing about.
