Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Myself:
If you were good at your job you wouldn't get nervous
How I responded:
Having a certain level of nerves is OK. It helps to remind you that what you do is important. Take them for what they are and do not let them consume you. It gets better with time and experience.
