Explanation:

When a speaker is nervous about a speech, the appropriate approach is to manage the anxiety (e.g., through preparation, relaxation techniques) rather than avoiding the speech ("Find a way...", "Get rid..." implies elimination which isn't realistic, "Become lackadaisical" is unproductive). Managing anxiety helps in delivering the speech effectively.

Answer:

Manage the anxiety.
