At times, we all feel a bit of nervousness. Feelings of anxiety are common when one is confronted with a difficult task, when one is under intense pressure to succeed, or when one has a pressing concern. When you're anxious, your body goes into stress mode (also called fight or flight). The immediate release of stress hormones is a critical part of the body's natural defence mechanism. You'll be better equipped to defend yourself and act swiftly in dangerous situations. Anxiety makes you extra careful, especially if you're already feeling uneasy about your safety. But many people experience anxiety even in non-threatening but stressful settings. They may, for instance, worry excessively about various classroom activities, such as tests, introductions, and presentations. It's normal to feel nervous in these circumstances. However, one should train themselves to deal with such situations. When left unchecked, worry can prevent you from pursuing your goals and even prevent you from engaging in activities that bring you joy. It's preferable to confront your fears head-on than than run away from them. Imagine how much you could do if you only tried.
