This for me is very true. Public speaking is not for me but I know that I will have to force it to become part of me. Public speaking is something almost everyone needs to perfect. Public speaking is one of the most essential things to a successful career. Without the ability to communicate well, we will not be able to travel the world as we would like. I need to get better at public speaking and the thought of practicing it makes me anxious. CSI also pointed out that math and science were not my strongest skills. Math and science were subjects I was never very good at. It also made me realize that just because I've never been good at something doesn't mean I never will be. With better study skills, I could definitely become better at this. CSI encouraged me to take challenging courses and tasks. That I need to get out of my comfort zone of English and history classes (which I'm very good at) and challenge myself with some math and science.
