The number 1 fear among humans, besides death, is Public Speaking.. I myself am terrified to speak in front of a crowd of people. I envy those who can go out and just be themselves.. sigh... i just done a group play about an indian epic " Ramayana ". I acted as the number 1 villian the nanny. Boy was i scared. i had to hunchback (pass), speak in a haggered voice(fail), and say what i memorised (mostly pass). During the play i tried me very best to relax and focus and not to think about humiliating myself. Heck, i will still feel stupid no matter how i speak so might as well just go for it. When my turn ended, i felt like a million bucks. There is that rosy feeling after u do a public speaking, similar when u just survived a tiger attack haha.. and this time i didnt felt stupid, i actually felt good.. Now i know, the secret to a good public performance is to just be yoruself and dont care what your mind tells u. I also thank the Lord for helping me relax and just to do my best..Public speaking is also the best way to improve your confidence and self esteem.. maybe ill take up public speaking as a hobby... maybe
Happenstance.
