Why, in your opinion, is it so much easier for me to speak publicly when i try to make and hold eye contact with one person instead of distributing my focus around the room? I always catch my self speaking to one or two people as opposed to the group as a whole. what can i do to change this?

Thank you for the in detail response. I thoroughly appreciate the personal anecdotes as well, made me feel less self-conscious about it. I will keep this in mind in my Public Speaking class in college this coming fall.
