5 Tips on How to Become a Better Public Speaker

Reading this post will help all those who have stage-phobia or fail to make an impression when speaking publicly...

I think this post can be really helpful - for amateur speakers to overcome many basic hurdles, as well as for more experienced speakers to refine their speech.

Minnow Support : Complete Steemit Guide for Welcoming, Training and Retaining Newbies (A Collection of Guides to Help Newbies & Minnows)

I would regard this post as a complete "Steemit Guide for a Newbie". This post takes the newcomer very gently, from ground level to the intricacies of our great platform (Steemit). Author also included valuable self-learned lessons and suggestions.

I basically love this amazing new Steemian. He is genuine, sensitive and truthful. He really believes in Steemit.

Conclusion

How do you like these selections from @xabi? I really appreciate that as a self-professed "newbie Steemian," he included a couple of selections that he found helpful for newbies. I don't have the patience to write these kinds of guides, and the nature of Steem makes older content disappear. I think it's great that there are always Steemians sharing what they have learned from their Steem journey, or helping each other find the guides that others have written! For submitting these great selections and commentary, @xabi earns 8 SBD today.

Each of these highlighted articles receives full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja. As an added bonus, @sneakyninja sponsors featured writers for Steem Basic Income!

Submission Requirements

1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will also not be accepted.
4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
5. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
6. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
7. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 2 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 10 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces. We hope that they will spend some of the SBD earnings to power up- but it's their choice.
