Pushing your confidence
Hi all, Alice here!
Today, I would like to share an experience I had earlier with you all that pushed my confidence...
When acting, I am not that nervous, just the occassional butterflies, but singing makes me self-conscious. I love to sing but it scares me so much and the idea of people judging my voice raises that level so much more.
But today I took part in a concert my music class is doing as a part of my course for GCSE. We performed in front of the younger kids at my school (years 7 and 8) and they were so encouraging!
My first song was Love Yourself by Justin Bieber which I sang along with my friend but I soon got into it and the nerves flew away! The song I was extremely nervous about was my solo, Sia's Alive. Even attempting a Sia song is a big step for any singer but as it is one of my favourites, I just had to do it.
As soon as I came out, my knees were shaking and so was my voice until the first chorus where I just escaped into the song and by the end, the audience were singing along!
Singing in public is definitely out of my comfort-zone, but today I achieved it and the smile on my face is one I will wear for a while to come. The point of this post is to encourage you to do something out of your comfort zones...
Even if it is singing in front of people or challenging yourself intelectually with harder work - I encourage you to do it as it will honestly make you feel as great as I do now!
Stay confident!
