Such a wonderful article, mere pyare Raj! I resonated with it so much because I was also terrified of public speaking and yet I was led to become a teacher and often had to give speeches in auditoriums in front of other teachers and students. I am doing better now, but I can definitely improve and polish my oratory skills more. Thank you so much for these tips, I found them really useful. Took so many notes and bookmarked it for future rereads!

I loved the bamboo story as well, definitely going to remember it! You used yet another great example to illustrate the power of storytelling! You are a master orator!
