I can’t help it.
I’m lucky enough to be asked to speak to the local Chamber of Commerce tomorrow. I’m looking forward to it, I really am… but I can’t help be just a tad nervous… what will I forget?
I’m prepared. I’ve practiced and practiced. And hey… I’ll have my speech right in front of me. I’ve been plenty of places where the presenter just reads from their paper/slides/powerpoint. <insert eye roll here> I hope to do a smidge better than reading.
I’ve done this before… remember the Johnson County Cattlewomen had me over a few years ago? And I helped out Trent Loos last year at WESTI Ag Days… and I’ve put on lots of programs through the library and Scouts.
It will be a nice crowd. Locals. Business people I’ve dealt with in the past. People that want to be there. So… I’m getting all fingers crossed and lists checked and double checked… and I’m pretty sure I’ll do OK.
I think.
I hope.
I just need to quit THINKING so much!
Find me here!
Don’t worry. You’ll do fine. You’re not talking to a bunch of strangers, but to friends and folks you know.
Now… DEEP BREATH.
Deep breaths before hand and you will be fine.
You will be great.
Good luck
Carol, you will do great on your speech! It will be very interesting and they will love it. So try not to fret about it. I wish I could be there to hear it too! Best wishes to you.
