I get it. Presenting to a group of staff, a hundred strong, is no big deal for you.

But it’s a big deal to me. A big deal to one who prefers the company of one.

Who frequently suffers from slow and broken speech, brain fog, and occasionally a complete mind freeze.

A month ago, when I signed up to this, I was in the self-confident and ambitious phase of my quarterly cycle.

Right now, I’m in the starting to doubt myself again phase, towards the end of a week where I haven’t been at my best.

I was minded this morning to withdraw, only I am presenting on notions of such extraordinary importance that duty comes before personal disquiet.

I wrote everything above just before my presentation. I’ve done it now.

And to be honest, after a week researching,  preparing, and rehearsing… in the end… it was no big deal, after all.
