Speaking in public is most people’s least favorite thing. The reason is that we are all alraid of making foods of ourselves. 66 .
But stop biting your finger-mails. Public speaking is easy. It’s just plain talking, and you talk all the time. Although I’m basically shy (honest!). I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. And I can tell you that public speaking is not a “gift” like musical talent．_ 67 .Here are some of the lessons I have learned:
Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not tenor 20． 68 ．And if you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, there's no way vour audience will． 69 ___—how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．
When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．___70___．A strong close is critical; the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．
