Before starting, here’s some things you should know about me.
I was a shy and awkward kid during my school.
Since I joined my college, I have participated in various singing competitions, I have done various stand-ups, I have organised and spoken at various meetups/workshops.

1. People don’t care if you are bad
They won’t care if you fail.
They won’t care if you slip up.
It might be awkward for that moment, or a day or two, but after a while no one cares.
For getting more confidence, be with supportive friends.

2. Observe how your role model speak
I used to watch Pewdiepie a lot. And I admired him because he was an introvert before starting YouTube. And now he’s one of the biggest Public Speakers with one of the biggest audience in the world.

I started copying how he spoke (when I was alone of course).
I used to pause the video in between and tried to speak like he does.
I think it helped me a lot as I am not a native English speaker.
