The Rest of My Speaking Journey
I remember sitting in a conference room with my boss and three outside vendors in 2017, talking about the weather. At 1 pm, my boss said, “Let’s go around the room and introduce ourselves. Serban! Why don’t you start!” That was my deer-in-the-headlights moment. My heart started beating fast, my palms instantly started sweating, and my face went pale. I froze. After what felt like an eternity, which most likely was only 10 seconds, my shaking lips finally muttered my name and role in the group. I wanted to hide under the table.
I’ve always been an introvert and have never been comfortable speaking in front of people. I was a shy kid growing up. Growing up in Romania, I never had to do any presentations in front of my classmates. This fear of speaking in front of people has always been a part of me, but after that conference room incident, I knew I didn’t want to go through that experience anymore.
So, I decided to face my fear of speaking in public and become a better communicator. I was introduced to a book called “Mindset” by Carol Dweck, which was a catalyst for me to believe in a growth mindset. I joined the Toastmasters Club, where I practiced speaking and leadership weekly. My first 5 minutes speech took me two months to prepare, and I was constantly battling fear and anxiety, but with time and consistency, my fear started to diminish, and my belief in my abilities grew stronger.
After six months on this journey, I was in a Project Management Meeting at a local Denny’s, where I was asked to introduce myself to the 40-person group. This time, I was able to do so with calm and composure. I felt ecstatic about the progress I had made in my speaking journey, which motivated me to continue. The more I participated in Toastmasters, the more my fear turned into excitement and enthusiasm. I read books, watched videos, and learned about the power of storytelling, which can significantly influence anyone.
I realized that I had been telling myself a story that I wasn’t good at speaking, but with my new experience, I learned that anything is possible with effort, practice, and time. I am now a confident speaker and am grateful for the journey that helped me overcome my fear and become a better communicator and Professional Speaker.
