Confidence is Key

Confidence
Confidence by mfinley706 on Polyvore

My team and I are giving a pretty big presentation today in front of 50+ people. Needless to say, I'm not looking forward to it since I'm not the best public speaker. I get super nervous, lose my train of thought and the rest is downhill from there. This has always been one of my major weaknesses and I try to put myself in these uncomfortable situations to help improve my fear of public speaking. I have been practicing my part of the presentation over and over again in front of my mirror. (I seem to have it down but I tend to clam up in front of a big audience.)
I came across this quote on Pinterest last night and thought it was very appropriate for today. After reading it, I decided to pick out my favorite outfit: my turquoise capris, white oxford shirt and matching leopard belt and flats. (See it here!) This outfit gives me a ton of confidence, something I'll definitely need during the presentation later on today!
I thought about my part a little bit more and told myself that it won't be as bad as I think it will. (Plus, it's at the end of the day so I have this morning and early afternoon to keep practicing.) I know once it's over with I'll be relieved, I just need to keep my cool and maintain my confidence level.
Wish me luck!
