Hot Chocolates JUST WORK before speaking. Especially Lindt!
Whilst I was building my Live Webinar for Monday on “Profitable Public Speaking & Selling from Stage”, it had me unpacking all my tips and tricks to get great at public speaking.
One of the minor (yet noteworthy) points, has been what I learned from my Mentors and Experts on how to prepare for speaking.
Having an empty stomach is a great thing in that it keeps your energy high and mighty. Another trick which I love is a Hot Chocolate an hour or two before speaking. I have mine on Soy and here is the reasoning:
- The Sugar & Cocoa Hit: It gets you awake and in the zone.
- The Warm Soothes One’s Throat: Cold liquids is BAD for speaking. Hot liquids keep you going.
- It allows you to chill: Hot Chocolates are great to help one chill out. Great for keeping nerves in check.
My advice and thinking? Before you speak, get in nice and early so you can relax. Get yourself a hot chocolate and TRUST ME, it works.
Enjoy and Happy Speaking friends!
