The worst idea is the one we do not share. Your opinion counts. You have something to say. Share it.
We plan to speak up and for many reasons do not: intimidation, fear of public speaking, or of being accepted. We should overcome this and adopt a few simple steps to do it:
1. Understand your voice matters, especially to yourself.
2. Be in the right frame of mind and allow yourself to feel calm and unrushed.
3. Listen with intent and where you know you have a perspective, share it.
4. Allow others to talk without judgment.
Practice. The more you attempt it, the greater your confidence will become, and speaking up will become easier.
