I have been observing that i and many of my friends lack this CONFIDENCE. may it be in a seminar, paper presentation, or any other thing for that matter.
Despite the fact my level of preparation i suck while presenting it to people.
my knowledge level on that topic before presenting it very high.. why is that my confidence not building up despite my excellent conversation skill? why is that fear factor coming into game.. I will be indebted to you if u could somehow suggest me some ways to overcome them

Every one is born to win.
And you're not alone in this world facing such lack of confidence.
Having understood your problem for yourself you can also find a solution for yourself by repeatedly pondering over it and gradually forgetting about it in the due course of time as you face more and more audience.
You'll know that no one is perfect and everyone has some uniqueness to share with others.
You may try gaining confidence by expressing your gratitude,in the first place,honestly to the audience for getting that opportunity to present yourself to such august gathering and telling them that you're a constant learner and you're indeed indebted to have them listen to you while they share their knowledge where you feel you're lacking.

Building up confidence is not overnight thing.Its something you achieve slowly from experience and from learning your own mistakes,improvements.
Start from daily things.Go everywhere on time and dress up neatly.Have your hair done and keep teeth white clean.Slowly improve everything one by one.
Get organize more and more.

Dear friend,
I feel it would be a part of fear of committing faults. That too if the auidence is too much, fear to face the auidence may be another fact. I feel this can be overcomes by giving proper anaylitical ways of approaches. May they lack praise and proper boosting or their actual talents. Moreover we should be careful that they do not be over confident.

I think that the best way that you can possible increase your confidence is simply to expose yourself to situations in which you would need to be confident. This could include answering more questions in class, and making sure that you let your opinions be known in any groups that you might be a member of. This will mean that when it comes to presenting anything in front of people, you will feel as though you're a little bit more confident letting people know what your opinions are. You will get there, it's just all about getting the practice in.

It is really very hard to stand and present your works in front of many people when you are nervous.I have experienced the same when I was very new to presenting in front of many people.I thought I was ready.I thought I knew everything to say.I thought I could speak very well,but when I stood in front of my classmates I lost my confidence.I could hardly speak,and my hand got very cold.lol
But I didn't stay the same all the time.After doing the same for many times I no more felt the same.
Maybe you just have to think that you are great,that you are well prepared,that you are intelligent,that you are good looking.And everything will be fine.Think that you can do it.:)

Sir if anyone is having lack in confidence then there is only one and only one reason for that that person is having less practice of that work whether it is giving paper presentation, seminar, giving lecture or any other work it is only our practice for that work by which we can overcome our confidence problem............ practice more and more is key tpo prefection and if prefection is there than confidence is automatically there so my freind tell your freinds to practice more and more even if they all about their work never get lazy and see the difference in confidence
