        @SamHarrisOrg I think just as many people are afraid of public writing, once you put it out there, it is there for everyone to criticize

        "This marriage of fear and desire is an unhappy one—and many people are stuck in it." This is such a perfect summary of it, @SamHarrisOrg

        @SamHarrisOrg @JerrySeinfeld says our #1 fear is public speaking, #2 is death so we would rather be in a coffin than giving a eulogy.

        @SamHarrisOrg I'm most interested in what specific techniques you used to calm yourself apart from the obvious of preparation and frequency.

        @SamHarrisOrg spot on. I had the same issue and all of the coping methods you listed got me through it. Now I enjoy public speaking.
