Stage fright... something that is hard to overcome. Have you ever thought though that we all have to deal with it at some point in our lives?. We all feel nervous at tumultuous events such as presentations at school, talent shows, among others. Albeit, we have to learn to deal with them.
My insatiable curiosity has always led me to ask questions regarding different topics. Yet, I still have a lot to learn. Stage fright is one of the topics I knew the least. Hence, the reason why I did a little bit of research on it. One of the ways in which you can feel more confident before a presentation is practicing of course. It could be either in front of the mirror or among a group of friends. Further, starter with a hook such as a joke or an anecdote always works.
Let us segway more deeply into this topic. The more you practice, the more confident you feel. Nonetheless, is it always good to have a back up plan. In case you either confound the audience with too much information or run out of it shortly. A good speaker should be attuned to the needs of his audience. Hence, you could come up with trivia facts if you run out of time too soon or expand more on your explanations if you feel your audience does not understand you.
In review, I would say to you not to sell yourself short. We all can do public speaking. It is only a matter of practice and good posture. Speaking of posture, which is something I did not touch on, I would like to say that straightening up and walking calmly while speaking is the best thing you can do. Lastly, I would like to add that I hope I am drumming up enthusiasm in reading this blog by bring up less negative matters.

It seems what you have done throughout your life does not add up to much in some cases. Believe me though. You learn from almost every single experience you have been involved in. Do not let anything quash your plans to succeed. We all get wistful at one point or another due to past unfortunate events. However, being able to get by our problems is what we must do so as to progress on.
There is no elaborate plan for success. You must trip a hundred times in order to find success. Still and all, the more you try to accomplish what you want, the more chances you have. There are times in which you know you have to step up to the plate in order to fulfil your goals. We all flounder at times. Even so, the more we try, the better. Hence the need not to back out from challenges that would benefit you.
Have I tried to keep my failures under wraps for a time. Albeit, I learned that "what does not kill you makes you stronger". As hard as opportunities are to come by, there is always something good to buck up about. Be that as it may, do you have to cross boundaries oftentimes to achieve your goals.
Regardless of how much it costs you to get around to reach an ambition, it is always good to feel prideful about your accomplishments.
In review, I would say that irrespective of how hard it may seems for you to reap success, hope springs eternal. Life may not be as easy as whipping up a quick meal. Nonetheless, it sure is worth living. Take it upon yourself to fight for your goals and seal every chance you have to succeed by working hard.

For years has my family ram their decisions down my throat. Even about the gifts I would get. Conversely though, I have never got used to saying thank you. As much as lack of sleep can throw your body out of kilter, guilt can do too. Hence, the need to be grateful for the small things in life. Irrespective of what your situation is right now, there is always something to be thankful for.
For instance, I've been plucky enough to confront my kin lately. However, have I not been that way to thank my friends. May I have been maneuvered into making the wrong decisions in the past. Be that as it may, my friends have been behind me always from the start. Something I had not considered before due to being boxed in my emotions.
May I not have been able to lay down the law to my kin and let them know what I wanted to do with my life when I was a teen. Even so, I can do it now. Besides, once I said I was going to succeed and I cannot go back on my word. I may still live off my parents, but at least I am not embarrassed to say it. Nonetheless, it is not that I have not been doing anything in the meantime. I just needed to find a north for a start.
Should my own actions spur me on to succeed. There is no point in choking back my tears now. Do I know that what I have been through has not been easy. Still and all, we all withstand pain in our own way. Have I been able to get by my problems with the skills I had at hand. Albeit, I know now that I am capable of much more and so I am going to tug my shirt into my pants and move on. Enough is enough trying to cover up for some of my insecurities.

Was I cut to the quick after the a friend of mine's comment . However, is it true that my perfunctory efforts to get better have shown themselves. Not due to not being exactly a person who gives off confidence, but for the stuff I have brought out into the open . Not to mention that, for what I have been able to glean about depression; the busier you are, the better you feel. Notwithstanding, all the tasks I had coordinated for this week I called off.
Besides, was my friend right on the button when he said I'd regret not moving on. Have I been succoured by some friends. Albeit, without much improvement. By the way, am I trying for words to slip out of my mouth as naturally as possible. However, still do I not know how to get into the swing of things. Have I obstructed my own progress, clothing my ears against any piece of advice.
How can I set things in motion now that I feel like this? I am not sagacious enough to answer that question myself. Since, I constantly cut myself down day after day; I don't know what else I can do now. Brooding over the past has only caused trouble. Hence, accentuating my illness even more. In order for me to set the tone for my recovery, am I going to have to make even more efforts to pull myself out this curse.
Lastly, I know no one will come around to my thinking. Albeit, do I have enough reasons for not living it up right now. Like they say: You are your worst critic. That's what happened to me. I was too worried about moping around that I did not look at what was ahead. Consequently, instead of writing lines as a punishment for not seen through it, I have something much worse coming for me. I cannot put my finger on it. Although, have I been driven to do things against my health in the past owing to my emotions.

It's been a tiring week. However, have I got a second wind due to my desire to get better. All my chances to succeed rest on how quickly I ride out this depression. Be that as it may, it flusters me that I oversleep sometimes due to the pills I'm taking. Anyhow, is it time to sing a different tune.
For now, what I have left to do is to put aside my feelings and look out not only for my interests, but also for my kin's.
Even though I have been conducting myself above average this week, still did I had setbacks.
Have I flipped my lid for instance, due to having slept in. Did I have plans today, and muttered complaints under my breath. Still and all, on the flip side of the coin, I got to have a good sleep.
Have I moved up my lazy days by not following through with all my tasks. Albeit, it is justifiable due to my mom's inability to understand I did not need to take that many pills last night.
Enough about me, I think as I had delineated the characters of a play through my posts. Me being behind the ball, and my kin being the bad guys who caused it. However I want to categorize them, still do I have a long way to go recovering from this depression. My warped thinking tells me there is no hope and that I have fallen into a pit of quicksand. On the contrary, my heart tells me I should move on and forget about the past. Should I have to get rid of my bad thoughts such as a fan that blows water off your car in a car-wash.
How can I sanctify the practice of waking up early once more in my life. Since I got caught up in the past a long time ago, it is hard for me to ride out that issue. Is there an interplay and tag of war between good and evil within me. Hence should a posit routinary exercise as a solution for my problem. Each time a person exercises, their brain secretes serotonin. Thus raising their spirits automatically. In fact exercise would also prevent my nervousness from coming through. Anyhow, is it time for me to dive in and renew myself through the power of God. It gives me chill bumps to even mention him to be honest.

My intention has never been to embroider the facts regarding my personal life. Still and all, sometimes I tend to get off on a tangent. Am I still mired in depression. Albeit, little by little do I learn how to deal with sizeable problems. Even so, do I not have many options readily to assist me. Hence, the need for me to make a final attempt and jump over my hurdles. I just got word that a small job will come up. Hence, do I need to take advantage of this window of opportunity and set out to succeed.
Some of my thoughts may be outmoded. Notwithstanding, the fact that I am routinary person has helped me along the way. Ergo, should I stop berating myself over the past; due to the fact that at least I have one quality that shows. Albeit, have I not had a marked improvement. Thus, the reason why I need to keep working on healing myself and pushing a little harder. After weighing all my options, I can say that I still have a few. Nonetheless, I have to act so as to get them.
For years have I deviated from my goals owing to my kin's control. As a result, nowadays it is a lot harder for me to get over the vicissitudes of life. Do I wish I had grown away from my family sooner, but it did not happen. What I have left to do is to wipe my sweat off and keep moving.
May problems have undermined my confidence. However, is it never too late to start over, and get over the bad thought that subvert my health.
Could I elucidate the reasons for me feeling the way I do further. Albeit, I have to take upon myself to feel better. Conversely by being het-up over the past I will not accomplish anything whatsoever. Thus, the reason for me to murmur to myself every morning that I can do it. Doubtless, it is going to take a lot of hard work. Be that as it may, it is imperative for me to bring about change in my life now. I don't want to become a person who airs their knowledge all the time either, but one who gets to be noticed and respected by his peers.

The nitty-gritty of my recent condition is as follows: Regardless of the fact that I have made tiny progress regarding my health lately, am I still in danger. For years, have I tried to talk my issues over a coffee with anyone. However, due to my lack of friends and the disinterest of the few I had made it hard. It was close, but no cigar for me, who ended up having such conversations like that three years later.
No matter how much self-discipline I would put into things, my deep depression took its toll eventually. Had I hold my stand a bit longer, the result had been different. Needless to say that the fact that my kin cooked my goose regarding education from the get-go affected me the most. Hence, my irrepressible curiosity could never be satisfied. Owing to have played second fiddle to my folks, have I ended up in really bad shape.
Not that I want to sound pessimistic, but my chances of success have run short. Not to mention that there is no money available for me to put away for a rainy day. Not to mention, that without such opportunities there is little room for my ideas to fan out. If I could snarled at myself for having been so naive, I would have done it already. However, there is no point in doing it now. Besides, it goes without saying that I might as well give up so as to relieve the pain.
Never have I wanted to be a bumptious jerk. Even so, been more assertive since my teen years would have helped me a lot. Yet, I remain here, washed away by despair and without much to do. Never did I meant for this blog to be negative. Albeit, so many bad things have happened to me that I do not know whether or not I will be able to come up trumps this time. Have I been sniped at and abused by my brother and parents on countless occasions, that I could never even accomplish to be a self-made professional. Is it not easy to get off bad habits. Nonetheless, in my case it is much more than that.

Do I have to switch up to a better mind-set. Still and all, is it hard for me still to even remain calm at times of despair. Not to mention that my regrets do not cease to eat into me still. Should I just get back to my routine and forget about this depression that permeates all aspects of my life? Irrespective of how much my kin has hassled me over the years, do I have to learn to forgive for my own sake.
Am I in over my head with worries. Hence, my high priority is my health for now. Moreover, it is useless to say that you can extrapolate my life experiences from what you have read about me so far.
Not a fairy tail, that's for sure. Albeit, I have come to the conclusion that grouching over the past is pointless. As hard as it is for me to accept it, it is indeed useless. One of the things I have been suggested to do for instance, is to pursue an uplifting activity. As a result, I would be able to cope with my depression a much more effective way than how I have been dealing with it so far.
May I have taken so many wrong turns thus far. Be that as it may, I am still young. Besides, how do expect to preside over a school class someday in the future if I cannot help myself first? Walking faultless and knowing I have not hurt anyone is priceless. Hence, the need for me to forgive. Moreover, if I expect to make it to the finish line so to speak, I am going to have to do it alive and kicking. May I have been induce to making the wrong decisions in life. That's over now though. Fussing over the past will not magically rewind my life and solve all my issues. As much as I wish for that to happen.
Finding a sense of purpose is not easy. Albeit, once you find it is easier to set yourself up for success. Do still need a life-saver though. Be that as it may, it could be faith for all I know. Not that I believe 100% in the esoteric. Notwithstanding, I'll illustrate my thinking. When you twist your ankle, you go to the doctor right?. However, what happens when you have a fight with a relative, were do you go?. That is where faith comes in, sometimes religion helps you out even more than a visit to the shrink. Do not get me wrong though. Both should go together and balance each other out. I can testify to that due to my situation. Although, should I be considering as a first step toward my healing process to dump out those festering thoughts and accomplish peacefulness of mind. Thus, bringing in positive thoughts is the way to go.
Sunday, July 12, 2015
When negative thoughts take over and cloud your mind, what should you do? Countless times have I wondered that. Still and all, what I know is that it is definitely hard for me to dump out nasty thoughts. To be honest I have not exactly have sown the seeds for success. However, has it been really hard for me to even get a job opportunity lately. Not to mention the grudges I have been nursing for years against my kin. One thing is for sure though. Nowadays, I do not care about hating them anymore.
Might I have been kicked to the curve countless times by the people who ran the show in each occasion due to my insecurity. Be that as it may, I myself have wasted some chances due to fear.
Have I got detoured by the grudges I was holding against those who hurt me, not to mention my fantasies about time travel. Not that I have visions or anything, but daydreaming about the supernatural has also prevented me from getting over my past problems.
Hoping this is not my last post by any means, do I try to hang in there with all my might. Notwithstanding, I wonder what the point of living is. If I never get to live out my fantasies, then I will have a miserable existence. To say nothing of the fact that thoughts about the mistreatment I got from my relatives still ruffle me up. Should I find something that fills me up then? Well with low income and a negative mind-set there is not much I can do.
They say that if you want something, you have to make a little noise. Amen to that. I concur 100 % with that aforesaid statement. Problem is I never complained about the things I did not like back as a child. Hence, the reason why my kin took advantage of me in so many ways. In review, I have little left to do besides concentrating on my new job and avoiding to fester even more resentment. That is the only way I can get back on board with my former activities.
PS. Next time I'll try not to come up with yet another rigmarole
Saturday, July 11, 2015
I am a few days away from starting work and yet my inscrutable face says it all. It seems as though I had incur the wrath of destiny by failing to decide wisely about my future back in my teenage years. However bad things are, the decisions others have made for me and the one's I did not make have taken their toll on my health.
Truth be told, I feel a bit long in the tooth to have learned English by the end of my teenage years and not the other way around. Not to mention that I did not even master up until recently. Oftentimes, you have to sit on the fence regarding making an important decision. Even so, when others decide for you. Such as what happened in my case, you can end up in serious trouble.
Am I convinced that if I had been left to my own devices when I was younger, I would have been a lot more successful. be that as it may, there is not much I can do now, but to look forward. Irrespective of how much I would like sugar-coating my situation, I cannot. There is something that prevents me from doing so. No matter how much it would help me to pluck the bad memories out of my mind. It does not seem humanly possible.
To close things out, I would say that hope springs eternal. Regardless of how unlikely it seems for me so as to mend my situation. Call me a "Drama queen", but do I remain lost in my own mind oftentimes trying to imagine a better world in which I live. Coughing up the truth is as hard as remembering how many people have foisted their beliefs and decisions on me. Let alone the fact that my lack of a cut-throat spirit has always been a disadvantage for me too. As longs as bad thoughts keep popping up in my mind, I have something to worry about.

Have I started to make headway recently. You see, have I gotten myself a job in an interpreting agency. However, My spirits have not risen that much to be honest. The fact of me pondering over my regrets still affects me. Hence, is it injurious not to move on altogether. Be that as it may, do I still have a long way to go before that happens. No matter how much more I rave about the past. What is over is over. Whether I want to accept it or not.
Throwing myself into a new job might keep me occupied enough so as not to admonishing myself for what happened or to divulge my personal life to all my friends. Still and all, do I think that the fact that I have more people I can trust in now has helped me to overcome some issues much quicker than before. Sometimes you have problems coming at you back to back. Thus, you always need at least a couple of friends you can rely on so as to get it off your chest.
Perhaps I need get off my backside and start focusing on the nuts and bolts of this new job I've got.
Even so, do I still have a smattering of excuses not to move on. For instance, the fact that I waived the right to make my own decisions at my early teenage years, and how much that has had a bad effect on me. Having families who step on their children's toes does not seem that out of the ordinary. Notwithstanding, add to that one more family member besides your parents and you've got hell for sure.
To conclude, I would say that a lot more is going to take for me to finally be in the groove. Albeit, nothing is impossible when you set your mind to it. Do I have to cement the foundation of my path to succeed. Be that as it may, is it easier said than done. Hence, do I hope that my willingness to vanquish my problems overrides all others. I may not know the ins and outs of how things came into existence. Not to mentions that I still have hundreds of other questions. However, my desire to learn as much as I can and to overcompensate for the time I lost gives me the strength to go on.
Saturday, July 4, 2015
Sometimes I look back and see that some of my plans that have fallen by the wayside. Be that as it may, is it never too late to start over and turn over a new leaf. Hence, is it time now to get down to work. Not only is it good to be in a good mood irrespective of the vicissitudes of life, it is also crucial to constantly wait in your wings for unexpected opportunities coming up.
Have I grabbed a hold of my situation a long time ago. Nonetheless, was it had for to pull myself out of it. Would I as I have already mentioned before, remained pugnacious towards my kin regarding my past for long. Consequently, was I walking the plank by behaving that way. Now though, do I try to mind my p's and q's every time I am surrounded by my closed ones and happen to remember something unpleasant. Hence do I constantly walk a tightrope between putting them in their place and doing the right thing.
Still and all, considering the countless arguments my family and I have gotten into, I think enough is enough. This battle of wills has to stop once and for all. For a person who's got all their mental faculties that is the right thing to do. Ergo, the reason for me to start anew.
In review, and to encapsulate all I have said. Perhaps it is time now for me to bury the hatchet and bear no more grudges. Even so, is it better said than done. Some things cannot change sometimes. For now what I have to do is to look forward and try to stop berating myself for what is done as much as possible.
