If you happen to be staying in a hotel in a room next to mine,it is very likely you would hear parts of my upcoming speechbellowing through the walls.
Even after the enormous number of presentations I've done I stillpractice my stories and various bits of material the night beforemy event. I heard Zig Ziglar saying that he does the same thing.
Unless you are speaking every day, it is almost impossible tostay razor sharp with your delivery. Being a keynote / largeevent speaker, I may go 90 - 120 days between times when I tellcertain stories on stage. The last thing I want to do is flub upa line or bumble through a piece of material because I hadn'tthought about it for a couple months.
Don't get cockey! Practice your material several times rightbefore you do your speech and you'll have a much greater chancethat each word will come out perfectly.
