Why Change Is So Scary — and How to Unlock Its Potential | Maya Shankar | TED

<ul><li>Anxiety control is key. Embrace it as a tool for focus rather than an obstacle, using techniques such as mindful attention.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Reframe public speaking as a conversation, not a performance. Use questions and conversational language.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Stay present-oriented to reduce nerves; activities like physical exercises or tongue twisters help.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Get out of your own way: lower expectations to "dare to be dull" to unlock spontaneity.</li></ul>

<ul><li>View speaking opportunities as beneficial, engage imaginatively, and interact innovatively.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Listen fully and pause before responding to comprehend the audience's needs.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Use structures, such as problem-solution-benefit and what-so-what-now, to communicate with clarity.</li></ul>

How to stay calm when you know you'll be stressed | Daniel Levitin | TED - Summary

Visit http://TED.com to get our entire library of TED Talks, transcripts, translations, personalized talk recommendations and more.

You're not at your best when you're stressed. In fact, your brain has evolved over millennia to release cortisol in stressful situations, inhibiting rational, logical thinking but potentially helping you survive, say, being attacked by a lion. Neuroscientist Daniel Levitin thinks there's a way to avoid making critical mistakes in stressful situations, when your thinking becomes clouded — the pre-mortem. "We all are going to fail now and then," he says. "The idea is to think ahead to what those failures might be."
