Almost all my friends said that i am self - confident enough for i can speak in front of them but the truth is everytime i make a report or share something in front of my classmates and teacher i always have cold feet and my whole body shaking. i just ask guidance from God for the success of my report for i feel sometimes unconfident of myself.i am just wondering why it always happens to me and i just think that it is normal to all people.do you have this matter too?...

I think it's normal for us to feel uncomfortable in front of many people. Sometimes you'll just notice that your hands are trembling. If we are able to face them though our heart is beating faster, it means that we are already strong enough to face our fear and we also know how to handle ourselves in front of them. Sure, it always happens to me but I just imagine that they are only "ants" and then everything is alright...actually that's what my mother always saying to me but I know she's only kidding. The real point is we should face those people because we are all equal there's nothing to be afraid of unless if they'll eat us.

I've always been fighting through my entire life in order to gain self-confidence but sad to say, until now, I still could not acquire it but I know that I shall have it someday. It just probably requires time.

The same with you... I need motivation to go through any discussions especially in front of many people... my discussions sometimes would end up undelivered clearly... that's why I always have this fear....

its just normal for students to have lack of self - confidence...but then, as you go along, experience many things already.....those learnings you have from your past experiences will certainly add to your self - confidence...don't worry, once you are a professional already and earning money on your own, you self - confidence, when nourished, will really improve...
