    Public speaking is people's number one fear, even greater than death. When giving a public speech, common symptoms of fear include repetition of words, memory loss, thought blockages, freezing hands, and talking too fast or quietly. To overcome this fear, it is important to practice frequently, prepare thoroughly by revising notes, maintain a positive attitude, relax the body, visualize the speech, maintain eye contact with the audience, and involve them with questions.
