30. When life pushes you to choose the uncomfortable path

I’m sure that by this point, you have already built a skill that can change the course of your life, and I literally mean it. Maybe you just haven’t realized it.

Because there’s a BIG difference between knowing a language and actually using it in spoken interactions.

29. Before you speak up, reinvent yourself

I completely understand that learning to speak up can be challenging. There was a point when I thought I was too much of everything: “too shy,” “too strict,” “too serious,” “too emotional,” “too by the book”… The only thing those traits have in common is that they are traits people don’t want to have, at least at a societal level. Here, I share four things that helped me navigate and develop my personality in ways I never thought possible, and how I was able to move from shyness to public speaking.
