How do you manage distractions during a speech? It depends on the scale of the distraction. If it's something that the whole audience is going to hear, well, then I have to address it. Especially if I can make a joke from it. One thing that used to distract me all the time, that really used to piss me off. I was giving a presentation, and there'd always be some jerk in the front row that'd be on their phone in the middle of my presentation. And then I actually saw it as, again, an opportunity. This isn't happening to me. It. It's happening for me. And now I love it when people use their phones in the front row. Why? Because it tells me I don't have enough energy on stage. So it's an opportunity. Right. Again, it's all about how you interpret what's happening to you.
