I had to fight my biggest fears to register myself for a program called "Speech Craft" It’s a 8 weeks program, conducted by a toastmaster club to offer a crash course in public speaking. Every week, each participant is expected to give a short speech on the guidelines provided.
Coming back to my first speech, I drafted it carefully, prepared it well in advance. Kept it simple so that I can easily reproduce. I practised about 20+ times infront of mirror. Most of the time, I went blank in between! :-)
On the final session, about 5 member out of 25 were presented a small award for "Outstanding Performance"
2 points for my fellow PWS friends:
+ Attend weekly SHG meetings "regularly". Do not miss out on PWS get-togethers like "Chennai Workshop" or "National Conference" etc - This the BEST therapy.
+ Come out of your comfort zone. Growth and Comfort cannot co-exist. Choose one of them.

Wow Dinesh! You have done it!
Yes, it must have been a LEAP of FAITH!
You have also observed carefully your own growth and shared it very objectively.. This should help others.
Great! Keep on charging ahead and sending your "war news despatches" from the frontier..
Dinesh--You always made me think differently.
When we spoke about TM club in past, the passion of yours also caught me. So i will also join it soon :)
Congrats for your "Outstanding Performance" award.
This success story of yours will invoke many others to join TM club for public speaking.
With Regards.
Dinesh ,you are a superman to us .
Congrats Dinesh. You have done very daring work, its required lots of guts, strength.

Brother Congrats for the success!!
your sharing gives hope to a lot of other people.
Nice Dinesh..your this post is very motivational for other pws. Tg achieve something,come out from comfort zone!!
Dinesh, its not just attending the meetings that has helped you but continuous challenging yourself by participating actively in whatever you do. Actually for many of us, "staying where we are" and "trying to change" both are uncomfortable but as Dr Sachin mentioned in his last post, it could be "unconsciousness of suffering" that stops many of us! Now that you have been able to move out of all that, its fully your responsibility to make the most of this god's grace :-)
