Learn 3 ways to overcome the fear of talking to famous people.
It is normal to be impressed by famous people. They are in a higher position but don’t get nervous and impressed because they are someone special. No, they are human beings like you. I have an interesting suggestion for you.
Imagine this person is a human being the same as you. yes, he might have a higher position but he/she is the same as you. when the interview is over, this person wants to go home, wearing pajamas, eat some food, talk to his family, or sometimes even argue with his/her kids.
I tested this in one of my classes. I asked my students to imagine someone important with pajamas. They started to laugh but then they felt more comfortable if it was time to talk to them.
Even Brian Tracy says: if you have the fear of public speaking in front of your audience, imagine they are all naked listening to you. yes, it’s funny but it’s helpful when it comes to talking to famous people.
I hope you can be successful talking to famous people after attending these three simple ways: watching videos and interviews of them, read their biography and feed-backs. Don’t be impressed by their high position.
