Spitting saliva as you speak can be an embarrassing problem, but it is reversible. This article provides some ideas on how to reduce the possibility of this happening.
Steps
-
1Practice in front of a mirror. This also helps with conquering lisps, stuttering, and most other speech problems.[1]
-
2Tell yourself you are going to fix the problem. Self motivation is big in this.[2]
-
3Always swallow before you speak. This almost always eliminates most of the problem.[3]
-
4Don't speak too fast. Speaking fast always increases the risk of spitting.
-
5Always be confident! Being confident and believing in yourself is the key to getting over any problem (except overconfidence).[4]
