What makes you nervous?

Me nervous?

Public speaking, just the thought of presenting something live or in person, has my heart racing.

I become nervous even if I calm down and think about it again.

And writing my books and publishing was nerve-wracking, for I didn’t know if anyone would like it.

I guess that could go the same for blogging when I first started, but now I know I need to get it out, and it’s okay if no one likes it but me.

I guess the real thing that makes me nervous is the attention, like when I’m speaking sometimes I get nervous even if it’s just one one-on-one but more than two eyes and I worry about if I’m pronouncing things right or if I’m making sense because I feel I have a speech impairment as sometimes I just can’t get the words out and I thought it’s because I’m nervous or tires but it happens every now and then with simple words.

So basically, talking makes me nervous, but I know it’s part of life, so I find my ways and try to get through it.

Maybe that’s why I like writing. It is calming. It allows me to be free, and there are programs to fix my mistakes.

I’m pretty sure I rambled on this one, but oh well. Please enjoy it or not!
