What do successful people say about nerves and confidence?
“Don’t be afraid of fear…you can harness fear to drive you, rather than succumb to it and letting it beat you. When you start acting confident, then you start to feel it. Being able to smile is a great short cut to confidence. It helps you have a good time.”
