安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
It was a lesson in public speaking which I took to heart. There is one rule I might suggest for youthful orators. When you stand up before an audience reflect that there are before you only men and women. You should speak to them as you speak to other men and women in daily intercourse. If you are not trying to be something different from yourself, there is no more occasion for embarrassment than if you were talking in your office to a party of your own people--none whatever. It is trying to be other than one's self that unmans one. Be your own natural self and go ahead. I once asked Colonel Ingersoll, the most effective public speaker I ever heard, to what he attributed his power. "Avoid elocutionists like snakes," he said, "and be yourself."

白话
卡内基从一次演讲教训中总结:上台前要记得,面前只是男人和女人,就像平时说话一样对他们讲。只要不刻意装成另一个人,就没什么好紧张的,跟在自己办公室和熟人聊天没两样。让人手足无措的,正是想扮演不是自己的角色。做自然的自己,大胆讲。他问演讲家英格索尔秘诀,对方说:远离那些朗诵腔调的人,做你自己。
上下文
卡内基年轻时常演讲,曾因模仿他人而受挫。英格索尔是19世纪美国著名演说家,以自然有力的风格著称。

下次当众发言,你能否先放下“表演”,只做自己?
