*Hello friends.. How are you fairing today? i will be taking you through on how my industrial training (IT) was a huge success. Here's the story. We embarked on a 4 months industrial training experience and came back for the defence. And soon, the date for defence was fixed. At first, fear caught me, coupled with stage fright and doubts. But, with careful preparation, self-belief, and resilience in the face of fear, I overcame. From the very beginning, I knew that the key to a successful presentation was a deep understanding of my topic. I spent weeks revising my research, mastering every detailed lines of the topic, etc. I created a very clear concise with my highlighted key points which I knew would be overwhelming the audience. i practiced my speech repeatedly, and this repetition gradually built my self- confidence, to be bold, and helped me to internalize the flow of my presentation. *
Overcoming fear and doubt was a mental challenge that i faced that required conscious effort. At initial, I felt anxious about standing in front of my siwes officials, lecturers, and fellow coursemates presenting my work. I became worried of the fact that I might forget my points, misinterpret a question, or fail to demonstrate my knowledge about the given topic. But, I constantly reminded myself on how to deal and conquer these thoughts and fears. i began to reflect on how far I've studied for weeks, developing the project topic, and how far ive come already. i visualized a postive outcome, then imagined myself speaking clearly, boldly, and receiving affirmations from the officials and directors.
To crown it all, on the defence day, I came out to speak and I saw myself overcoming all these fears, doubts, and stage fright. I also embraced the the nervous energy, channeling it into enthusiasm in my voice and gestures. By the end of the defence, I had transformed what initially felt like a daunting challenge into an opportunity and it was a success 馃檶.. yay..!!
