Practice, number one cure for stage freight is practice. You cannot be confident with something you havent practiced enough. If you're not comfortable with things you need to spend more time with them. I would also recommend only performing in places and for people that you're comfortable with. Perform for family and friends, not people on the street. Work your way up. I know my first few stage shows I had to bring my girlfriend with me for support. I still get nervous when performing a new effect but with enough practice it definetly helps. Video taping yourself performing the effect and watching it is also a big plus. The other thing is that most people do not practice patter, if you dont, when it comes time to talk in front of people you're in trouble.
