All you can do to make everything fine again is laugh about it. I did a presentation in schoola few years ago and I was clearly the most nervous in the class, but once it was over, I was so relieved, but I still felt like an idiot becuase I thought people would think less of me and mock me for being nervous.
The fact is, people don't think less of you, it's only yourself thinking that they do. You should try to laugh about the situation, becuase if you think about it now, it was funny wasn't it? People forget how nervous you were in no time at all. I'm sure you thought you looked more nervous than what you actually were, so don;t worry, what you saw was worse than what other people saw, I'm sure.

First of all, you should not be embarressed. Anyone would be nervous in that situation. Everyone gets nervous. IF they are talking about you, they are crappy people and they suck. Dont worry if they are talking, something will happen to someone else and they will become the office gossip. You are human and you should not be ashamed of your emotions. Here is a truly embaressing story: I had to go to a local high school and give a talk to the students about Juvenile Justice. I asked a question and no one answered, so I decided to pick a kid to answer. So I go, the boy on the front row. And SHE goes, I am a girl. I thought I would die. But I am okay now. You keep your head up and keep doing great at work!!

Anney u got through it. So u need to prepare ur self in learning to speak to groups. A simple course at local community college can help. Then practice ur techniques in the workplace. Dress for success, great posture and hold your head up. If the presentation was good just concentrate on that. Be gracious and acknowledge the butterflies and let it lie. Remember those who r jealous and not your friends will throw it in your face. U need to be ready and redirect them to presentation work. U've got to control the throw back crap that goes with competition. I too use to get nervous and was given a large paperclip the triangle kind. Anyways a great speaker told me he would squeeze it prior to speaking and on occasion feel it in his pocket to east the jitters. Which made me realize it was also in a movie "Maid in Manhattan". It works as distraction and I've never had a problem public speaking since. Try it.

Bring a porn magazine such as SWANK to work with you, discretely hide it in a mens toilet cubical, remove it and then demand 'Who is the pervert who brought this filth to work?'
When everyone replies 'It was you!' your embarrassment about being unable to spell and the presentation you are still unhappy about will become a matter of triviality.

Move on as if it never happened. There are a lot of public speakers out there that have had embarrassing moments. Practice makes perfect.

Theres nothing to be emabarassed about..... you probaly did and excellent job and feel self concsious.... no one is looking at you funny .... if anything they wanna know how you did such a great job.... A way to get over it is just to ignore it ... or you can be the funny guy at your job and give them a real reason to laugh (gauk) at you........

You have to tell yourself "it is what it is" and there is nothing you can do to change it. Keep your head up and show the confidence you wish you had then. People usually forget anyway, it's only you who will remember it.
