dont follow your emotions , rather logic
you know you have a speech tomorrow , prepare it , tell yourself you can do it
and deliver your speech
and , get OVER it
don't think too much , you more you are worried , the more you likely won't do it well

Walk in/up like a boss and if you know your stuff then deliver like a boss. Make it comical if you can. Last year I gave a speech about something i hadn't researched and got a 73 on it. I just made myself think that I was confident. I hate speaking in front of people, but if you know your stuff just give it as if you were talking to your family or friends.

the key is just to invite your audience into your talk. May be present it like you are telling a story to a friend, sort of like how would you explain it to your friend. So think of people around you as being interested and curious about what you are saying. Imagine that what you are saying is important, but not that important, start with something like " Well you probably already know that...."
