Description

This message here is definitive proof that practice makes perfect. I was super unpopular in school and I had a really hard time having face-to-f face conversations with people. I was pushed on camera. I figured out if I want to succeed at this, I'm going to have to get over it. So, I practiced and practiced and practiced. If you go back to that first video, that's what I'm more like, especially if I'm somewhere that I'm uncomfortable. I avoid parties. I avoid industry events. I'm more comfortable talking to a camera than I am to a real person.
