The biggest challenge we currently
experience in the world, is a soul that wants to conquer the world, but a mind
that is too sleepy to take initiative.
An
anonymous defines fear as false events appearing real. Honestly, speaking in
front of people is really a demanding task. It is not surprising, therefore, to
note that this noble act has brought down great men and women and even
destroyed people’s lucrative careers all over the world.
Shocking
figures reveal that a third of the world population suffer from fear of
speaking in public. Possibly, you might not be an exemption. Surprisingly, even
those who appear to be outwardly comfortable while speaking in public, are in
fact, terribly frightened inwardly.
A
world research recently revealed that the direct cause of fear of speaking in
public is presence of nervousness. And the most common cause of nervousness is
uncontrolled anxiety. You have to control your anxiety in order to conquer your
fear of speaking in public.
Life
is all about risking. Don’t be afraid to speak in public. Take the plunge,
stand up in a crowd and say something. Do it once, twice, thrice, and do not
stop thereafter. You have to start
immediately and commit to succeeding. If
you choose to chicken out however, then be rest assured that you will remain in
this trap forever.
The
only comfort zone which awaits all beings is death. It is the only in active
state of beings where we all have no control of what happens thereon. Your future does
not depend on people’s interest. Your interest supersedes any other interest.
Biblical Encouragements
“I
tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after
that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who,
after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I
tell you, fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of
them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. (Luke 12: 4-7).
But
now, this is what the LORD says — He who created you, Jacob, He who formed you,
Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you
are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you
pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through
the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. 3For I am
the LORD your God, (Isaiah 43:1-3).
