I honestly don't believe that I care what other people think of me.  It's just that I'm anxious about being anxious.  I don't want my voice to start to shake again, nor do I want to share things that I half-ass'd. At least, from all of this, I can advance mentally instead of always retracting or staying the same.  What I learned was to always prepare.  Preparation is the most important in building confidence, and to prevent situations that I know I don't want happening.  Now if only I can just... engage in preparing then I'm all good.  But procrastination feels so much more natural... ah.
