Question

Write a speech on the topic: "being realistic about our expectations".​

Answer 1

Answer:

When we invest our time in something important, we inevitably create expectations. These expectations can be realistic and sometimes they can save us from disappointment or other outcomes we partially predicted and thus expected. But when our expectations are unrealistic, it can seriously jeopardize the process of overcoming fear.

Our expectations also determine the way we perceive certain events once they’ve already happened. If we are personally involved in such event, the effect of our expectations is even greater. That is of particular importance for public speaking because not only are we a part of the event, but we are actually in the center of it.
