Motivation plays an indispensable role in our lives. I'd like to talk about a person who encouraged me to achieve a goal. When I was in high school, I suffered from a fear of public speaking. I never participated in speech, debate, or poetry competitions. My teacher, knowing my fear, assigned me a speech to deliver on a Sunday morning. Initially, I refused. But my teacher motivated me, explaining how important it was to overcome this fear. She encouraged me, saying I could do it if I put my mind to it. She even gave me a handwritten speech to practice, which boosted my confidence. She asked me to practice in front of my family and siblings. I did, and within a few days, I gained enough confidence to tell my teacher I was ready to deliver the speech in front of the whole school. The day arrived, and I was nervous. My legs were shaking, and I couldn't start. My teacher and friends gave me encouraging signs, telling me I could do it. I gathered all my courage and delivered the speech with confidence, as if no one was listening. It went very well. My teachers and friends praised me. At that moment, I felt confident in myself, knowing I had overcome my fear of public speaking. I did my best that day.
