Most people try to get rid of nerves before a big moment.
Sem Verbeek learned to use them.
In this Paradox Byte, Sem explains why nerves and excitement are the same in the brain — and how reframing pressure changed the way he performs under competition.
We talk about:
Why feeling nervous means you care
How to ground yourself before performance
Using the audience as energy instead of distraction
Turning pressure into focus
A reminder that nerves don’t mean stop.
They mean you’re ready.
