- By being on the stage.
It is the most important aspect for shooing away stage fear. Many people are very talented but restrict themselves from being on stage due to stage fear. The interaction with stage will give you confidence, experience and will make you fearless. The other time you get on stage you will be 2 times more confident and experienced.
- Be confident.
You have to be confident while being on stage as there are many eyes glued to your performance. As you lose confident you lose interaction with confidence. Be confident and enjoy what you are doing. The presurre will only be there for first 30 seconds after then you are going to enjoy it. Be in front of mirror to be confident.
- Don’t worry about what audience is gonna think!
They are audience for a reason. They don’t have guts to be on stage. Atleast you are on stage. If your performance is good audience will like it and if it is not as expected you will get experience. So, just perform. I can give you my personal experience on this. I have been on stage for nearly 10-12 times in school, but always in a group, never solo. As i thought about what my fellow classmates would think. But in college i had to present a presentation in front of everybody. New to college i thought nobody knows me here except 5-6 people. I told to myself ‘ Nobody knows me here and i am not going to give a damn about what others think of me.’ And guess what presentation went well.
- Watch a lot of TED talks.
