Fear Of Public Speaking, the Best Way to Get Rid of It

Do you have nightmares about public speaking? When you have to stand up in front of a group does your mouth go dry? Hands shake? Stomach turn flip-flops? Feel lightheaded? Think you may pass out?

Welcome to the club. If it’s any comfort, you are not alone!

According to a well-known survey, 65% of us would rather die than speak in public. Many have tried for years to overcome their fear and given it up as hopeless. But wait! There is hope.

We can now turn to one tested method to end the fear of public speaking that has been shown to yield amazing results. It is The Lefkoe Method (TLM).

Probably the least known, but possibly the fastest way of getting rid of the fear of speaking in public, is The Lefkoe Method (TLM). TLM is based on the knowledge that our behavior is governed by what we believe to be true. Therefore, it focuses on finding the 10 or so negative beliefs that make us fear public speaking. These can be such beliefs as, Mistakes and failure are bad; If I make a mistake, I’ll be rejected; or People aren’t interested in what I have to say; etc.

Perhaps the most interesting feature of this approach is how consistently it works. In a study published by the Journal of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, university researchers found that on a scale of 1-10, participants who used TLM lowered their fear of public speaking from an average of 7 down to 1.5 (1 was a lack of any fear at all). It took an average 3.5 hours for participants to reach this level. In follow-up six months later, the fear had not returned. Based on this evidence, the researchers concluded that, The Lefkoe Method is an effective, quick, and convenient procedure to eliminate the fear of speaking in public.

TLM was created over 20 years ago by Morty Lefkoe, founder of The Lefkoe Institute. He and several other certified facilitators have helped over 12,000 clients rid themselves of their fear of public speaking, along with many other emotional and behavioral problems. Their Speaking Without Fear Program is offered with a money-back guarantee: if your fear is not gone in four or less one-hour telephone sessions, you’ll get a full refund. For more information visit: Fear of Public Speaking.

The Lefkoe Institute (TLI) has a money back guarantee and a 97% success rate.

Keep in mind that most people who have benefited from TLM agree that the skill of the practitioner is of the utmost importance in determining the effectiveness of the program. If you really desire to overcome your fear of public speaking, be sure you are working with someone who is highly skilled, gives you confidence in his/her ability, and makes you want to succeed. And about that money-back guarantee? Couldn’t hurt.

Look at the 2008 Chevrolet Malibu

In 2008 the Chevrolet Malibu corrected what was perceived to be a shortcoming. All right, so what was it that was missing you might ask?

Does size matter? The size of this car was not something that garnered many complaints. In its class of midsize sedans, the vehicle has always been known for its relatively roomy interior. Compared with its competitors like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord, the trunk space is really good and there’s lots of leg room for thefront seat as well as rear seat passengers.

How about power? Neither was lack of muscle much of a commented-on failing. Prior-year models were plenty well endowed thanks to the attentiveness to this matter by the Chevy motors engineers.

The predecessors of the 2008 Chevrolet Malibu had as their biggest flaw, a lack of road side appeal. As previously mentioned they had plenty of pep and good midsize roominess and that’s what made them such good reliable family cars. Chevrolet got that right in spades. In 2008, Chevy turned some of their focus on to the aesthetics of this car that has a long history of good looks and sportiness.

So what’s the status of this nice and practical vehicle as of the year 2008? Now that she is looking hot. Chevrolet always knew that they could make a good practical car and make it good looking as well.(To see what I mean take a look at all the 2008 Malibu’s for sale on this page). The Malibu got a beautiful new makeover in 2008. The front end is new with a nice-looking split horizontal grill, and two pairs of round headlamps. There’s a bit of a muscle car look to it also, what with its significantly widened wheelbase. Chevrolet made this Malibu into a car that you love for its practicality, smooth ride and good looks.

All this being said it certainly would not be a big surprise if the 2008 Chevrolet Malibu was in the running for a Best American Car of the Year Award.ward.
