What makes you nervous?

There are a great many things that make me nervous most of which I think are quite practical for many or most of us. We need to remember that being nervous is just a feeling and doesn’t mean that anything bad is going to happen. It just keeps us really really focused.
Below are just some brief examples of items that I have found that made me nervous and how I have dealt with them.
Life Changes
Change of any kind makes me nervous. We all have a resistance to change and it’s not easy specially in life when we have lots of changes happen to us. However, I’ve come to find that all these changes in life that are difficult lead to the best growth and the happiest life possible.
Site Reading Music and Public Speaking
I could recall when I used to site read music that I’d be nervous about making any mistakes, but that just kept me frosty and on my toes and ready for anything. Sort of like when you’re going to make a speech or speak in public, you get nervous before you do that speech, but that keeps you on your toes and sharp.
Meeting New People Dating
Dating is never easy, especially in this day and age with all the technologies that are out there to use. So when you meet someone for the first time in person, you’re definitely very nervous and wondering how people will be in person. Whether they act the same as when you’re chatting or talking on the phone. Results were mixed on this one and will be expressed in subsequent writings by yours truly.
The World at Large
Currently, there are a lot of things going on in the world that are not great that also make me nervous. Potential climate change global warming seems to be getting worse. The politics in our own country here (US) have gotten more dysfunctional than I have ever ever seen in my lifetime or right about even in any books. Wars people, dying famine disease so many things out there that aren’t so great keep me nervous pretty much daily. But, I try not to let it bring me down because there’s only so much we can do about it and again this kind of goes back to everything. Just roll with things and do your best to get through them all.
Ergo
At the end of the day, feeling nervous is just that a feeling. A mere interpretation of our reality. just our minds telling us to stay sharp and be ready and that’s not such a bad thing. We just get caught up in feeling “nervous” where it would be best to enjoy the ride see what happens. See how the song comes out how the speech is delivered how the world is going to cope higher life change. “Just keep going”, which is my daily/hourly mantra…

Not exactly either it’s a photograph I’ve taken or it’s a image I get off of Google and I apply ArtFilters to them and tweak them out so it’s not really original per se. It’s just ArtFilters. But thank you for saying so. 😊

Totally empathise with you on the dating thing, Anthony. But it’s not just dating! People can be sooooo fake on social websites. Kissy kissy one moment. Diss you the next! Social websites aren’t good for your health. My advice is: see them for what they are, NOT what they aren’t. One of the best advice I got from a Christian counsellor was “Keep something for yourself. Don’t give it all away!” A great maxim, don’t you think. Ian

Well-written points.. I agree.. Apart from them, my personal ones are Anticipation or a premonition of a heartbreak, of a failure, opening up to someone new.
