    To say I’m bricking it today is an understatement.

    Got to do a presentation on a product at college to a panel of Dragons. ****ting my pants. Hate presentations.

    So question today is; have you ever had a funny or cringe worthy moment in front of either friends, family or colleagues? We’ve all had moments where we’ve royally ****ed up. So what happened? :D

    Morning Pags. You'll be fine. Take a small voddy to steady the nerves.

    Spent plenty of time making presentations in various forms, some where the audiences sat & listened, others where they heckled something rotten. No real screw ups other than forgetting people's names occasionally.

    Pags a little tip from someone who has to do loads of presentations. Act confident and smile. Don't look worried and even if the stuff your talking about is shyte, and the data is wrong, present it as if what you're saying is 100% correct.

    Make sure your skirt is not tucked into your knickers <ok>

    Pags, just remember its only college and not your real job or product you are trying to launch. The more you tell yourself that the less worried you will be and the easier the presentation will become.

    Slow, deep breaths and relax when you are talking, so you talk nice and slowly and not too fast.

    You`ll be fine.

    I hate presentations, whether it's in front of a handful of people, or a room full.

    I used to play a fair bit of cricket. I had a fair few family and friends come watch me at one important game, only for me to drop the tamest of catches 3 times and then miss the easiest of run outs when I finally had the ball in my hands. Luckily we won the game quite comfortably, but I took one hell of a ribbing for it.

    A little trick I learnt is to put a swear word in every sentence. It is an immediate ice breaker and always generates a response.
