#Trust30 – Day 6
This reminds me of the saying; The thing you fear most is the thing you should do next. Or, do something everyday that scares the hell out of you.
Public Speaking
I love the multifamily business with a purple passion. It has been the avenue that has paved lots of good fortune for me over the years. And, any chance I get to talk about any aspect of it; I take it.
Last night, I was a guest speaker for a professor at Washington University in St. Louis. I spoke on the topic of marketing and leasing up a re-development project called The Laurel Apartments. It’s an amazing project with amazing potential to change the social landscape of the neighborhood. It has everything a marketer could ever hope for in the way of an assignment.
That said and to the point; public speaking scares the hell out of me. It’s a dream of mine to be an accomplished public speaker over time so I jump at every scary chance to present not in spite of that fear but rather in celebration of it.
What are you afraid to do?

I just sat here thinking about your question and quite frankly, I can’t think of anything I’m afraid to do! I really don’t have much “fear” and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. Hmmm.
Kudos to you for facing your fear of public speaking. I can see where that would be nerve-racking for you and it’s cool you jumped on the opportunity to do it! You go MB!!
