1. The High Price of Fear

2. Long time ago I went to Toastmasters
regularly.

3. No matter who you are, what you
want out of life, or where you're going,
becoming comfortable speaking in
front of others is a very, very powerful
way to clear out a lot of cobwebs in
your brain.

4. I saw this movie called "Dodgeball,"
which was a pretty goofy comedy
about a dodgeball tournament.

5. As it was based on a standard
archetype, you had this team of misfits
who had to work together to become
champions to beat the evil owner of
the gym across the street.

6. So they hired an old "dodgeball" guru,
who would teach them the ancient
secrets of the game.

7. They showed up, and he started
throwing wrenches at them.

8. Big, heavy, metal wrenches.

9. His theory was that "if you can dodge a
wrench, you can dodge a ball."

10. Public speaking is the same way.

11. If you can get up and talk in front of
others, it will give you the self
confidence to do a LOT other stuff.

12. Anyhow, this one night I was giving a
speech on fear.

13. Now, when you give a speech, they say
it's a good idea to start off with a bang.

14. One it will get the audience's
attention.

15. Two it will blast away all trepidation
from your brain.

16. So that's what I did. I calmly walked up
to the podium, looked down at my
notes, looked up like I was preparing
to make an opening statement, but
then I screamed my lungs out.

17. It was pretty fricking funny!

18. In economics they have this saying,
"the cure for high prices is high prices.
The cure for low prices is low prices."

19. Meaning if something is really
expensive, a lot of people that can
make that "something" will figure they
can make some easy cash, so more
people make it, and it gets cheaper,
since there's more of it.

20. If prices are super low, more people
buy it, which drives up demand, which
drives up prices.

21. You can say the solution to fear is the
fear itself.

22. If you spend your life running away
from what you fear, it will always be
right around the corner.

23. But if you walk smack dab into the
middle of what you fear, it will vanish.

24. Poof!

25. When I gave that speech, I was REALLY
nervous before, but as soon as I let
loose that howl, it was pretty fun.
Everybody was laughing, including me.

26. Take that, fear!

27. Of course, if you want to walk across
the room to talk to somebody, or ask
your boss for a raise, screaming your
lungs out might not be a good idea.

28. But there ARE plenty of tricks to
outwit fear and get rid of that
imaginary monster for good.
