Comment on How I Overcame my Fear of Speaking in Public by TheZ

I've had a fear of public speaking nearly all my life. I hate because I feel it was the result of some bad grades when I was in school.

Just the other day I heard that more people fear public speaking over death.

DEATH....

Could you imagine how great that fear must be?

I think you nailed it when you said you were speaking on topics that you hadn't earned the right to speak on.

There's no better feeling than speaking to a crowd on a topic that you truly KNOW and LOVE. I had the same anxiety as you did when I started speaking, obviously because I wasn't prepared.

I totally agree with you.

Lately I have been flooded with E-Mail trying to sell me programs to "BLAST" and "AUTOMATE" Comments to "Millions" of Blogs. Give me a break! what is this people thinking about?

I receive about 40 posts a day on my blog that are pure SPAM, thank god for Akismet.

Very good point and very informative too.

Comment on Seven things you must do if you want to be successful in Social Media Marketing by dougmcis

That’s right Michael too many people get started with Social media marketing without a plan and they fail because of the lack of the plan, not because of the platform. It’s kind of like the going to the airport and hanging out in the lounge instead of getting on a plane. Then blaming the airport for not getting you to your destination.

Great post and #1 is a fantasic bit of advice for people who tell me social media is a waste of time. The applications are not the time wasters, but those who allow themselves to use them. Thanks!
