TOPOS & TALK #_12 OVERCOMING THE FEAR OF VIDEO

Welcome to today's Cloud Based Real Estate Brokerage TOPOS & TALK #12 - I have so many things going through my head every day about Real Estate that I just want to get it all out. I get asked so many questions about real estate every day. And, coach so many agents that it's time to answer all of those in depth questions while I sip on my Topo Chico.

In today’s episode I do a deep dive into Overcoming the fear of Video. The fear of shooting content and putting yourself out there. It's the real deal and public speaking is the number one fear amongst everyone. It's more fearful than drowning. It's more fearful than being burned alive. It's more fearful than heights. It is something that plagues everyone yet a lot of people can't figure out how to get over this. Personally, I used to be extremely fearful of public speaking, and every time I got up in front of everyone, my face would turn beet red and my voice would start shaking. I would get super nervous and I just felt this massive overcoming sensation of anxiety. What I did to cope with that is I would practice, and I would pretend I was Tony Robbins. The crazy part is I felt like after that I was turning into a robot and I ended up getting a public speaking coach. And realistically, that didn't help me at all, and I went to the public speaking class classes. I did everything they told me to do, and realistically like the class should have been like how to deliver a speech more or less being coached. And now I really pay attention to like Renee Rodriguez, he's amazing at public speaking, telling your story and all that stuff. And realistically, what it comes down to is you need to have a story and you need to have your sequences dialed in. But one thing that really got me over the fear of speaking, was understanding where the fear of speaking was coming from and what it comes down to is that naturally everybody is fearful of being judged. And when you speak in front of people, when you shoot videos, what you're doing is you're opening yourself up to criticism. You were asking every single person on the planet that sees your content to judge you. It is something that you have to learn to cope with. It is something that you have to learn to be OK with. You're not going to be the cup of tea for everybody, but if you're OK with the person in the mirror, that's what it comes down to and the way that I was able to get over the fear of public speaking was one simple order article that somebody sent me one time and it was from Forbes magazine and I remember one specific statement changed my life, "You have a powerful message that people need to hear."
