Presentation Skills

No matter if you're an engineer/doctor/accountant/manager or anyone else in general, if you do not have 'presentation skills', then you're another frog in the pond. In real world, your degree doesn't matter much. How you converse, how you communicate your idea and how you present whats in your mind is the thing you need to master on. Sadly, in Pakistan, I've noticed that 'presenting in front of your class/colleagues' comes out as one big nightmare. Also there's this research which proved that presenting is the second worst fear people have after fearing from death. Well, lets keep it simple. If you want to achieve something, you really need to pull some grip on this art and master it. Even if you don't master, you really need to know how you should convince people and deliver your message to the audience. If you're not selling/pitching your idea well, you're not making anything at the end of your day and following are few points which I think is what you need to 'present' well no matter if you're a college/university student or an employee.

You can use Urdu and English (combined) to talk and discuss your point with others.

- Don't stress. Just know that you can do it.

- Focus on 'why not' rather than 'why'.

- Talk your heart out. The people listening to you are human beings and they have done shit too, so its normal and okay.

- Use the easiest words possible. The more 'fancy and tough' words you will use, the more you'll stammer. Stammering will lead to confusion and you'll fuck up.

- Talk as if you're talking to some bunch of goats and sheep. Explain your idea in the easiest tone possible.

- Keep moving. Standing still will make you more nervous. Chill. Its not some god damn United Nations headquarter or any such place like that.

- Take deep breaths. Crack some jokes. Light down yourself and stuff.

- Last but not the least, always remember. Everything's in you and you can do it. You always can!

- You do not need 'English' to communicate your idea. You just need a clear mind and simple language to deliver it.
