Do You Know What Happens on Stage?
Imagine yourself standing in front of a crowd of people that you do not even know. You are supposed give a talk to these people, and they are just sitting down, hanging on to your every move, gesture and sound. You begin to sweat, and you are not sure what to say anymore.
Before you know it, you have visions of them leaving their seats and heading for the exit. Or worse yet, you see them laugh at every word you say, at every stutter or apology you make. You begin to sweat profusely. You pause right in front of the microphone, half-expecting a tomato to fly right at your face. Does this seem familiar?
It is said that public speaking is one of the worst fears of a person. In fact, that is one of the major nightmares of a person; to be publicly humiliated, usually manifesting in dreams with the person walking naked while everyone just look, and probably even laugh. This is an expression of a subconscious fear of speaking in front of other people. But do you really know what happens on stage?
