To help lessen the extreme and discomfort in my early twentys and thirties, I did Dale Carnaige, Toastmasters, joined various business groups and served on committes, did " firewalking" and a host of "self improvement" adventures, did bungee jumping, scuba diving and some other interesting things to become more comfortable being uncomfortable... or as jeffers admonished, feel the fear and do it anyways.
