misprint2 a piece of driftwood
brave today.
Whenever I have to present myself, talking in front of a group or camera, I have to repress the impulse to stay away or to run and hide. I actually bring myself to face these situations far more often than absolutely necesary, but each time remains a struggle.

doing what you’re doing…. over n over and it will become a habit I had the same issues but I actually enjoy it now ; )

with struggle I mean that I still have to reason with myself that I have to do it. I would much rather not, but I won’t allow myself the easy way out.
Recently it has become far less intimidating, once I’m in the situation itself. I even enjoyed the last presentation I had to give to some degree.
I used to dislike discussions as well for a while, but I’ve come to enjoy them a lot, so maybe I’ll also beable to say one day that I enjoy doing presentations.
That’s a really good quote. From my own experiences I can say that Schwartz is absolutely right. For example, I tend to be shy in courses where I didn’t grasp an early opportunity of saying something. In courses where I participate from the beginning, it’s easy for me not to be shy. So it applies not only in general, but also for each specific communicative context. :)
