    About this ebook

    Many people find it as easy as a piece of cake when they address themselves to the public, bold and confident, stand on their feet to the audience, comfortable but eloquent, and barely reveal their mysteries in mild annoyance. While those favorable facts seemingly have never occurred to the others who take it for granted the way they are, at the very least, being reluctant to give it a shot promptly.

    It probably had something to do with character orientation. Provided that someone stay as timid as a hare, which many people may think, he would embarrass himself in public and perform quite like a wall flower without any doubt. However, as somebody or nobody, reading the very first page of this book right now, there is one thing must get shook off root and branch unless you wish nothing changed and stuck still in a bottleneck------the stereotype that it is far-fetched for the introverted to deliver an amazing speech.

      Preface

      Many people find it as easy as a piece of cake when they address themselves to the public, bold and confident, stand on their feet to the audience, comfortable but eloquent, and barely reveal their mysteries in mild annoyance. While those favorable facts seemingly have never occurred to the others who take it for granted the way they are, at the very least, being reluctant to give it a shot promptly.

      It probably had something to do with character orientation. Provided that someone stay as timid as a hare, which many people may think, he would embarrass himself in public and perform quite like a wall flower without any doubt. However, as somebody or nobody, reading the very first page of this book right now, there is one thing must get shook off root and branch unless you wish nothing changed and stuck still in a bottleneck------the stereotype that it is far-fetched for the introverted to deliver an amazing speech.

      Hardly ever have I been convinced in such certainty that I am capable of giving remarkable presentations until I have the nerve to give it my all in college, precisely in my freshman year. And it turned out to make me feel spent as if the end of a marathon but definitely worth it. In the days that followed, after I leaped over the obstacle where the stereotype stood, I found myself an entirely brand-new world that I am ready to show you in the rest of this book, a place which does not mean to be make-believe but to be make-it-happen. Here's what came to my thought when I made up my mind to start this guide book, a real story to demonstrate the curve of my growth.

      In the early days of my childhood, it was so bad that whenever I stood up in class to read, the other kids snickered and laughed. I always sat down, my face burning with shame. I have no idea what caused my stuttering though my mom believed that I picked this habit from one of my neighbors who intended to make jokes with me at the first place. From that moment on, I struggled with my suffering stammer, trying and enduring. Despite the fact that copious visions emerged in my mind frequently, yet, my mouth shut and zipped as a last resort. Few people can feel the way I have come through hence they often don't take this issue seriously. But for the slide show task in college, I wouldn't be aware of so intense that how compelling it was and that it was my turn to make a difference, which led me to the next question.

      How to make it happen, which I reckon, is an ordinary matter which many people have difficulties in. In the past few years, I have kept myself giving different speeches as well as presentations continually in many classes, and afterward, I couldn't help to look after my performance by self-examination and feedbacks from my classmates and teachers. At the end of my sophomore year, an idea popped out all at once that I could make a summary based on my related experiences and share with other students in need by writing a book. Somehow, this intention gradually flourishes like a seed up to now I finally begin to write something down in my second college summer holiday. Hooray! Followed, I am going to give you, my dear readers, an introduction about how I am prepared to organize my points to facilitate your acquisition and application of this guide book.

      In the points of my views,
