To practice remaining calm in the midst of change and uncertainty, practice, practice, practice. Boost your confidence by practicing the key sentences you want to say in an important meeting or conversation. Create a contingency plan for what you will do if/when your presentation slides don't work (fill in any mishap you can anticipate). Rehearse the stories you want to share in an interview. Build confidence through preparation. Speak from the heart. Remember to honor the wisdom of your experience. Finally, if you like basketball you may like this:)
