A businessman named Bob had a hidden problem at work. He was nervous when he interacts with colleagues and various tasks. While he does not have an anxiety disorder, he often worried about his job performance.
Because Bob was grateful for his position, he was afraid of failure, he did not disappoint them. Time management and self-esteem suffered because he often caught up in details and landed behind his work.
Bob experienced socialTalk about anxiety and the fear of the public, particularly about the presentations in front of his boss. As he spoke, his primary fear is a symptom of heart palpitations. And lacked security in its ability to communicate. Small talk and socializing made him uncomfortable.

If you are concerned for this kind of experience, I will give you some of the ways I helped Bob that you too can help.
First, I asked Bob, "What do you do to ensure that you do not miss?"
Sounds like an odd question, right? But you see that make most people who worry about the end of doing things to their fear rather be! This was the case with Bob.
Bob told me that he worked very hard, often up9pm or later, and triple-checked his work to ensure that everything was so right. Sometimes he has things from when he does not feel he had enough time for them to do very well. I told Bob that he experienced perfectionism, a common source of operational emergency and time management problems.
To heal his perfectionism, we had him do things less perfect. I told him to try "to projects in only 90% instead of 120% you've been there completely." He was wasting 30% effortvery low yields. If he deliberately faster and less focused on details, scored the quality of his work actually sky. Nobody noticed the decline of the "perfect-ness" of his work, but people noticed that he had more energy and achieve more. He used the time freed up to go with family and in the gym, which helped him more relaxed and happy.
Secondly, we have to speak to us on his fear of the public. In fact, Bob was a sociable and interesting man and a greatSpeakers. Why was he uncomfortable? Bob instead of rigid rules about what was appropriate to discuss and when. He asked if his statements were appropriate. When he asked leave is an employee, he was afraid to be too personal. When he discussed the weather, he thought it was too banal. Of course, this constant evaluation increased his discomfort.
The same process occurred when he gave lectures. He wondered what everyone thought if he boring people, and if heThings to say the right thing.
I asked Bob to speak, of course, without censoring his thoughts. I advised him to concentrate on the importance of his message and simultaneously presented, not on the details, such as it is sent. When he these subtle changes, he came across very well.
