Stage fright: Don’t get over it; get used to it. | Anwesha Banerjee | TEDxDecatur
Scared to death of public speaking? Here’s some practical advice from Dr. Anwesha Banerjee, a neuroscientist and distinguished public speaker. Dr. Banerjee says that while it is hard to get completely over the fear of doing something, it is not hard to get used to the fear so that it becomes a part of life and you stop paying attention to it. Stage fright is no different.
