Have you ever tried talking in front of the public? Or even talk to a superior of your school? In boys' cases, have you ever tried asking for a girl to be your girlfriend? Or even tried telling her that you are madly, deeply in love with her?
If yes, then very good! Your confidence to yourself is high. And you have overcome your greatest inside problem, low self-esteem. You are ready to go farther than were you have been. But if not, then you better get ready for I am about to share to you how difficult life is without confidence and believing in yourself. And all you can do is turn your back from any challenges that need self-esteem as your weapon.
Let me start with a situation wherein you need to present a 5-minute speech in front of the class about any issues in the society. You know that only this speech could save you from failing a subject. That awkward feeling when your heart beats like drums on streets, hands shaking, the feeling of cat-got-your-tongue, and you can't even do anything about it. You can't deliver your speech clearly because you re afraid to talk in front. This is what you call glossophobia, or simply the fear of public speaking. Most people suffer from this because you could be scared of the other people's comment about your idea, pronunciation,or your gestures. But if you walk in front and be confident of your speech, you'll surely be receiving applauds from the audience. And I know you know how it feels to be appreciated by people.
Don't let fear of public speaking make you embarrass in front of other people. Do something with it. Develop your confidence in public speaking by being prepared in everything. Make sure you are ready with your speech, know and understand well your lecture. Open your own ideas to the audiences like examples, experiences, and quotations. You should also practice well your pronunciation and everything so that you would not get embarrassed in front with your own manner of speaking. If you are still nervous of delivering your speech, the only thing that you can do is pretend. Pretend that your nervousness feeling doesn't exist. Don't forget to make an eye to eye contact with the audience and watch your proper gestures that they wouldn't even notice that your shaking.
There are some bad things that may happen to someone who has low self-esteem. Maybe he or she couldn't live his or her life happily for the negative thoughts always bothers him or her. Don't let these bad things happen to you, make an action and improve your self confidence.
