When You Feel Self-Conscious, Remember This!
Manage episode 490007751 series 3327267
A backstage conversation between a nervous speaker and a wise monk reveals a truth that can transform not just public speaking, but every human interaction: "They don't need you to perform so they know how good you are. They need you to love them so they know how good they are."
This simple yet profound insight illuminates the critical difference between operating from ego versus operating from love. When we're self-conscious, we make everything about our performance – Will they like me? Am I good enough? Will they approve? But this mindset misses the entire point of human connection. The audience, your team, your family – they don't need another impressive performance. They need to feel seen, valued, and loved.
