Confidence To Speak & Reach Out
I always wanted to have the courage to speak in front of many people and be confident about it. Before I go to the stage, I know exactly what I was going to say but it changes quickly when I started talking. The panic attack started to happen, I was saying things that are nonsense, my heart just pounds like crazy, I suddenly don't know what to say, I was sweating like crazy and I was so scared to commit a mistake.
One time, there was a second year college student and I noticed that he speaks WAY better than me compared to me, a third year college student. That student was so confident and very comfortable in his own skin to speak what he wants to say and to imply to his audience.
Instead of me thinking it was a slap to my face like most people think when they are beaten by a younger individual. For me, I see it as an inspiration to be a better speaker and a person in general.
I simply want personal advancements so that I can prove myself that I can also do things that I've never think I could do. I don't think even the slightest to beat that student at his own game. In fact, it doesn't matter even if he is still better than me after I have improved my public speaking skills. The important thing is that you have the initiative to enhance your abilities in order for you to become a whole new person.
One of my dreams is to inspire myself and other people through the power of public speaking and motivation. I know I still have a long way to go and I just have to keep on making myself better every single day in order to reach my dream. It doesn't matter if you are not the best speaker out there mainly even in your class or even in your group of friends or family or etc. The main thing here is that you should promise yourself that you will be a better version of yourself than yesterday. Don't ever give up just because things are hard and tough. For, the moment you start giving up, it is all over. :)
