How To Become A Well Tuned Presentation Machine
Nearly every day we are called upon to present ourselves.
It might be in a business setting, where we need to
convince customers to purchase a product or it might be in
a social setting where we need to convince a person we meet
that we are interesting and fun to be with.
How can you improve your communication and presentation
skills? Your entire body – not just your voice – is part of
the “machinery” that can make or break your presentation.
If your voice, your message, and your body all work
together in harmony, you’ll get your point across and
increase the likelihood of success. However, if your voice,
message, and body don’t work together, your point could be
muddled or lost. Fueling the machine is part of the process
of bringing harmony to your presentation.
A balanced diet is an important part in fueling the
machine. Make sure you eat meals that are approved by the
food guide of your country (since many countries have their
own food guides due to local differences in food
availability).
If you have a very important presentation that requires
your full voice and attention in front of others, avoid
mixing proteins and starches in the same meal. As well,
avoid eating fruit unless it’s on an empty stomach.
