When you feel nervous, say "I'm excited" instead of "Calm down" ✨
Totally Normal
Everyone gets nervous. It is said that even brave-looking people are nervous inside, and they are just acting calm.
Calm Down?
And if you tell yourself "Calm down," you may get even more nervous.
Try This
At those times, I try saying "I'm getting excited!"
⚡ TRY IT
Same heartbeat, new name
120 bpm
❓ What is this feeling?😰 "I'm nervous…"🤩 "I'm excited!"
🎤 On stage: ☆☆☆
You are going on stage soon. Your heart is at 120. What do you say?
😰 Still 120. Fighting your heart makes it harder…
🤩 Still 120! Same body, but now it is power. Let's go!
💡 Same 120 both times. Only the name changed.
The Study
It is said a study found that calling nervousness "excitement" can help you do better.
📚 I learned this from the Japanese blog "Panda no Ondo".
