"this is why we gamble, so we can have moments like this" soooooo on point. I've got a similar ticket for Washington and I go through waves of emotions. So vested. And I'm loving every bit of it. I can't imagine if Washington wins it all. LESSSSSS GGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I don’t because the radiation but the reason I use wired here is the mic inside the loud stadium. Although it seemed to only work well half the time lol
@@sportsbettingeducationYes. It absolutely is for a while. I remember just wanting to re record over and over and over. First, not sure if you're open to advice, but I've got some that i would love to share. Some people suddenly get defensive and upset if someone tries to share their experience with the intent of teaching them. That's ok. It's been a long time but i can remember realizing that it had been being that way and it holding me back. I learned to become so teachable that i could learn from a teenager and was around 25. Everybody has something they can teach me. Ego loves to jump in the way and be like coach Tim, they should be learning from you. Haha i just tell ego to shut the hell up. Anyway, no greater thing for personal growth than staying teachable, but the need for it usually has to come from experience not from some being told. This is getting long. Lol Point was, if sharing this experience bothers you and you're in the "don't give advice you weren't asked for" group, that's totally ok. I was for the first half of my life, but just toss this and my apologies. Here's what I learned about the difficulty I had in speaking when on camera or in front of people when not having something to say already fully prepared, no notes, nothing. Getting whole sentences is weirdly difficult. When I was in my mid 20's I began needing to be able to speak in front of groups of people or on camera, about the same time I discovered personal development stuff, self help speakers, books, etc. It was so oddly hard to do though. Why is it? Why is it not hard at all when talking to a friend? It's a form of fear. Here's the difficult self honesty part. it's fear of how it will sound, fear of what people will think, ya know all the things we want to think we don't have. I mean we all say we don't care what people think. Lol There's always reason we pick clothes we think will look good. In the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, there's an entire section about fears (over 100 of them) so that we can identify them in ourselves and begin to root them out. So that was the why, fear. Then came the get rid of the fear part. I had a ton of mentors. I became a sponge soaking up every bit of knowledge and experience I could from others. So I asked one of my mentors how he became so good at public speaking in front of thousands, even if he had no time to prepare. This mentor was a top 50 international speaker, New York times bestseller with 10 plus personal development books. He always made me find the answer myself, never would just tell me. He said "Do you know what is making it difficult. If not, I would start there." I told him I had found out that it was one of the many forms of fear. He said "alright, then the answer will be simple. What is the best way to root out fears? I would start there." 😁 I was like, well why didn't I think of that. Lol The answer was face it. As with anything, do the thing we fear. If someone has a fear of heights, they can remove that fear by looking over a balcony railing, skydiving, rock climbing. Well the same thing was true about speaking live on camera or speaking in front of crowdsg. What I began to do was set up a camera and every day talk to it for 10 or 15 minutes. After a few months, that fear was gone. It wasn't the type of fear that you feel, but I knew it was gone because finishing sentences was no longer difficult. Going on and on for 30 minutes was no longer difficult. By the time I was in my 40's, I had spent 15 years building a multi million dollar business. I decided after selling it that I wanted to mentor others and pass on all the knowledge others had passed on to me. So I began doing business consulting and life coaching. Well in doing so, I ended up needing to speak in front of hundreds. I was so glad I had done all that work when I was younger because I could get up in front of huge groups totally unprepared and feel just as comfortable as I do with talking to friends, like sitting around my living room. I'm 50 now and still not a problem, in fact I continue to get better and better at it. If it's something I know quite a bit about, I can literally get in front of a camera or in front of hundreds and talk for an hour, zero nerves, zero difficulty, no dead air, no running out of stuff to say. Pretty amazing. Like nearly everything in life that is a struggle, fear is somewhere in there hindering it, but facing it doing the thing we fear makes it go away. Not sure if any of that will be useful since you're already great on camera and a great speaker, but maybe it would be something to try. If you made it this far, I would say you've got half the problem licked because you're already teachable. Hope it in some way helps. :) Haven't proof read it.
