Good communicators have something special that many times cannot be defined, and in reality, it is charisma. People see them as attractive, they follow them unconditionally and they generate good feelings in the people around them, they feel pleasure when they listen to them. They have a great ability that is to transmit their thoughts without fear, and the great objective of good communication is to convince and seduce their listeners.
These types of people feel safe and serene when they have to make some kind of presentation, they know how to create confidence when they say something in front of a crowd of people.
But what happens when some communicators are absorbed by fear? What is the way to overcome it? We all consider that if a person is capable of facing an audience, they do not feel fear, they do not paralyze in front of a crowd, of course, for this to happen, everything takes a certain process, it is not achieved overnight, on the contrary Everyone at some point in their lives has felt fear.
Fear is not something we can escape, in certain situations you can feel fear, it is normal, it is more something necessary because it is a feeling that helps you preserve yourself and take care that you do not run any kind of danger. But fear is not always related to the sense of survival, on the contrary, there is fear that stops you, that does not allow you to think, relate ideas to words, hands begin to sweat, legs and mouth tremble, and the public may notice this type of situation. It is not a good sign, because if the leader or speaker is standing in front of his audience, it is because people consider him capable of calmly transmitting his knowledge, they were there to learn, listen and follow him, because his way of thinking seduces them to dedicate part of their precious time to him.
The first step in trying to overcome this fear is to recognize that we all suffer from fear, at some point of the day, either, in front of a meeting of partners, in front of a customer reluctant to buy or to listen to what one has to say, in front of to a friend, boss, or in front of a family member. There is no need to be ashamed of being afraid. The only thing that helps is learning to differentiate what is the cause of fear.
Not to name fear, is to allow it to take over you, your thoughts and your body. Once you can identify him, you will be taking a big step, because he no longer has the power to manage you as he wants, but you are the capital of your ship. It doesn't matter how old you are, whether you are young or of legal age. Fear does not know how to differentiate between ages, when it takes hold of people it does not differentiate these issues.
A true leader must gain the inner strength to calm down in the face of fear. You should not transform into a negative leader because of fear, some when they are suffering from this type of feeling, what they do is try to dominate their followers, subjecting them to their will to do what he says, but this is negative leadership Because no society can survive if its leader all he does is base his power on the fear of others, and not assume his own weakness, which is not having the ability to overcome his own fear.
Within fear we can appreciate two types of elements, one is the real situation, which many times cannot be modified and in others yes, and the other is the interpretation that the subject makes of that situation, if it is negative, they will feel fear.
Now, how can we overcome fear? Some may think, is it very nice to say it? even think clearly. But as I said later, everything can be overcome, but first we must:
-Recognize that you feel fear
-Identify what you are afraid of
-See if these reasons are real or are products of imagination
-After differentiating the causes, can that reality be transformed?
-You must be able to overcome fear
-Ask yourself, do you want to continue suffering from fear? Do you want to become a person free of fear?
Being a leader does not mean that you cannot be paralyzed by fear, you are a human being, and as such, you live, develop and suffer like anyone else, the difference is that you have a great tool in your hands, which is to have the ability and the charisma to transmit to the other knowledge. Do not suffer because you feel fear, on the contrary, this is the time for you to recognize it and start working for your own personal growth.
