Don’t talk yourself into not being you. At any time. You don’t have an excuse that works, when you say, ‘But I was nervous.’ That’s not you. That’s not how you got here. Yea, you can be nervous, it’s good for you, tunes you. But people want to see you. I don’t care what you do. When you’re good, then you bring ‘you’ out.
