overcome my social anxiety (read all 3 entries…)
I hate telephones 7 months ago

I’m in a program at school where we have to do a lot of our own research to put together business plans. I had a list of people I had identified as people I wanted to interview and it had just sat there for weeks. Because the semester is ending soon I had to stop procrastinating and just do it.

I wrote out a script for myself and rehearsed several times.
I poured myself a glass of water.
I applied extra deodorant.
I went for a walk around the block to calm my nerves.
Then I made the calls.

It wasn’t that bad.
