How not to make mistakes when performing for thousands of people?

This was the topic of my lecture for young artists at Stellenbosch University, though it applies broadly to anyone who presents in front of an audience.

Stage fright, mental preparation, self-confidence, communication, memory, planning, emotional intelligence — these are essentials for performing, and they’re all controlled by our brain.

I’m a writer and an editor. I love art, literature, music, and to drink good coffee. I practice Ashtanga yoga. I’m here to connect and learn.
