🔍Training in public speaking is not a matter of externals–primarily; it is not a matter of imitation–fundamentally; it is not a matter of conformity to standards–at all. Public speaking is public utterance, public issuance, of the man himself; therefore the first thing both in time and in importance is that the man should be and think and feel things that are worthy of being given forth. Unless there be something of value within, no tricks of training can ever make of the talker anything more than a machine–albeit a highly perfected machine–for the delivery of other men’s goods. So self-development is fundamental in our plan.

📚 Book Excerpt from many books____________
r audience will not hurt you. If Beecher in Liverpool had spoken behind a wire screen he would have invited the audience to throw the over-ripe missiles with which they were loaded; but he was a man, confronted his hostile hearers fearlessly–and won them.
In facing your audience, pause a moment and look them over–a hundred chances to one they want you to succeed, for what man is so foolish as to spend his time, perhaps his money, in the hope that you will waste his investment by talking dully?

Concluding Hints

Do not make haste to begin–haste shows lack of control.

Do not apologize. It ought not to be necessary; and if it is, it will not help. Go straight ahead.

Take a deep breath, relax, and begin in a quiet conversational tone as though you were speaking to one large friend. You will not find it half so bad as you imagined; really, it is like taking a cold plunge: after you are in, the water is fine. In fact, having spoken a few times you will even anticipate.

THINGS TO THINK OF FIRST
A FOREWORD
The efficiency of a book is like that of a man, in one important respect: its
attitude toward its subject is the first source of its power. A book may be full of
good ideas well expressed, but if its writer views his subject from the wrong
angle even his excellent advice may prove to be ineffective.

This book stands or falls by its authors’ attitude toward its subject. If the best
way to teach oneself or others to speak effectively in public is to fill the mind
with rules, and to set up fixed standards for the interpretation of thought, the
utterance of language, the making of gestures, and all the rest, then this book
will be limited in value to such stray ideas throughout its pages as may prove
helpful to the reader—as an effort to enforce a group of principles it must be
reckoned a failure, because it is then untrue.
It is of some importance, therefore, to those who take up this volume with open
mind that they should see clearly at the out-start what is the thought that at once
underlies and is builded through this structure. 

In plain words it is this:
Training in public speaking is not a matter of externals—primarily; it is not a
matter of imitation—fundamentally; it is not a matter of conformity to standards
—at all. Public speaking is public utterance, public issuance, of the man himself;
therefore the first thing both in time and in importance is that the man should be
and think and feel things that are worthy of being given forth. Unless there be
something of value within, no tricks of training can ever make of the talker
anything more than a machine—albeit a highly perfected machine—for the
delivery of other men’s goods. So self-development is fundamental in our plan.
The second principle lies close to the first: The man must enthrone his will to
rule over his thought, his feelings, and all his physical powers, so that the outer
self may give perfect, unhampered expression to the inner. It is futile, we assert,
to lay down systems of rules for voice culture, intonation, gesture, and what not,
unless these two principles of having something to say and making the will
sovereign have at least begun to make themselves felt in the life.
The third principle will, we surmise, arouse no dispute: No one can learn how to
speak who does not first speak as best he can. That may seem like a vicious
circle in statement, but it will bear examination.
Many teachers have begun with the how. Vain effort! It is an ancient truism that
we learn to do by doing. The first thing for the beginner in public speaking is to
speak—not to study voice and gesture and the rest. Once he has spoken he can
improve himself by self-observation or according to the criticisms of those who
hear.
But how shall he be able to criticise himself? Simply by finding out three things:
What are the qualities which by common consent go to make up an effective
speaker; by what means at least some of these qualities may be acquired; and
what wrong habits of speech in himself work against his acquiring and using the
qualities which he finds to be good.
Experience, then, is not only the best teacher, but the first and the last. But
experience must be a dual thing—the experience of others must be used to
supplement, correct and justify our own experience; in this way we shall become
our own best critics only after we have trained ourselves in self-knowledge, the
knowledge of what other minds think, and in the ability to judge ourselves by the
standards we have come to believe are right. “If I ought,” said Kant, “I can.”
An examination of the contents of this volume will show how consistently these
articles of faith have been declared, expounded, and illustrated. The student is
urged to begin to speak at once of what he knows. Then he is given simple
suggestions for self-control, with gradually increasing emphasis upon the power.
