After years of presentation coaching, one of the major things that I have realized is that many of the things presenters do to reduce nervousness actually cause nervousness. And because most business presenters deliver presentations so infrequently, those bad ideas get repeated over and over. Eventually, they become habits.

So, on this episode, I'll give you the seven presentation habits that actually cause public speaking fear. They are:

1) Writing Your Presentation Word-for-Word
2) Designing Your PowerPoint Slideshow First
3) Relying on Notes
4) Asking for Critiques from Friends/Coworkers
5) Practicing Alone
6) Videoing Your Presentation and Reviewing It Alone
7) Cognitive Dissonance

If you can eliminate these habits, you'll increase your confidence pretty quickly.
