You are brutally honest with yourselves and that is the best thing you can do to yourselves in the path of self empowerment. When I read your articles, I recognize my own lazy inner voice who confines me in his shackles of comfort so that I don't do anything daring. Keep it going mate. You are a great inspiration.

You described it in a way that made me feel like I was facing your fears alongside you. I went through a similar experience, which ended with me giving a small speech and singing in front of a large crowd. I was frightened to the core! Luckily the audience I was speaking to was very supportive and admired me just for being up there regardless of my lack of speaking skills. The fears I imagined were worse than the fears I experienced. It is now an empowering event to think back on, even though I'd still be just as scared to do it again!

Just talking to strangers, sales, careers etc. I encourage every one to give it a go. It is really worth the time and effort.

I am the President of a Toastmasters club in Vancouver, BC. I'll definitely pass this out to our current members to remind us why we joined and to push us a bit more. Also I am considering giving this as a hand out to guests as well. Hopefully it will help give them that little extra push to join. Thanks! Excellent article!
