Mastering the Art of Performance - Reading Together - Managing Stage Fright

"Even the most experienced performers must deal with performance nerves."
(page 113, Kindle edition)

"Remind yourself over and over again of your high level of preparation, of successful dress rehearsals, of the communication you want to establish, and of the results you know you can achieve. Envision yourself as calm, strong, unbeatable, focused, and successful."
(page 114, Kindle edition)

"And even at the last possible moment, in the instant just before you step up to give your performance, shove the anxiety aside with an additional chuckle, whistle, smile, deep breath, lifting of the chin, straightening of the spine, and a final upbeat thought. The moment has indeed finally arrived. This is the point you’ve been waiting for . . . you’re on!"
(page 115, Kindle edition)
