Overcoming a Weakness One of my greatest weaknesses that I have been working on it is expressing my ideas clearly when I am talking to friends or in discussions. Over the years, I have been strugling with the pressure of talking in public and I realized that one of the main reasons why I did not get good performances in discussions is because I cannot order my ideas properly. As a result, I did not reach smooth explanations. I found out that it was because of a lot of ideas came up to my mind at once or worst sometimes neither of them showed up. Another reason that I found it was that I did not find a way to explain what I was thinking and also I was afraid of what people would think of my point of view. In addition, sometimes I felt concerned about someone else saying the same I was going to talk about and; consequently, I would not have a relevant idea to add to the conversation or merely my ideas would become unnoticed. To resolve this problem, I decided to talk to some friends who seem to have a good control of the situation every time they explain their ideas. One friend advises me to be more self-confindent and express my ideas without second thoughts because they are not wrong or right but you can agree or disagree with them and that produces a good dicussion. Another told me that I had to summarize my ideas and expressed them in few minutes to no overload convensations with irrelevant information. I've been aplying these advices and many more for a couple of years and I have more self-confidence in what I talk.
