Weigh the Consequences
Ask yourself what are the consequences of success and of failure.
If I fail what will happen? If I succeed what will happen? You will be relieved to discover that the consequences of failure are not as scary or severe as they may have seemed. You will gain courage and a greater level of expertise every time you step out of your comfort zone. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
Learn to Laugh at Yourself
People who can laugh at themselves greatly ease their performance anxieties. Most of the problems you encounter in life can be dealt with and if it is not a life or death situation...this too shall pass. Take work seriously, but not yourself.
Take a Deep Breathe
Breathe deeply. When we are nervous, we tend to take very shallow breathes of air. This deprives us of oxygen and intensifies the fear factor. Concentrate on taking deep breathes of air.
Forget About Being Perfect
Most performance anxieties stem from trying to achieve the impossible goal of being perfect. Failure is a great teacher. Prepare, rehearse and own your subject matter. You are not absolved from doing your best; just don't strive for perfection.
