The video below is a snippet of the
presentation I was assigned in class where I discussed healthier ways of
managing stress. Before I began presenting, my palms were sweaty, my throat was
dry, and I could have passed out any moment, but I got through the
presentation. Despite practicing in a mirror multiple times prior to
presenting, I was still very nervous. The main
critique I have for myself is reading off of the presentation. It is one of my
“pet peeves” to read off of the PowerPoint presentation, and I was a little
disappointed that I forgot my talking points, and just read what was on the
screen. Additionally, I believe that I could have slowed down, elaborated more
on what I was saying, and possibly shown a little more enthusiasm. All in all, I was very proud of myself for talking about "Stress" though I was stressed during my presentation.
