Positive thinking is an old idea. From Napoleon Hill, Dennis Waitley, we go this idea. We also got this Daniel Goleman on Emotional Intelligence (EQ) - the ability to motivate oneself and others.
There are negative emotions: shame, guilt, panic, fear and they overcome the entrepreneur clouding their judgements and ability to think clearly.
Once looked as trifle and minor, positive thinking is looked upon as central to resiliency in times of crisis and is critical to innovation, persistence, and success. This is according to the book of Positivity by Barbara Fredrickson of University of North Carolina. This is called the undo effect
One way of overcoming anxiety before the speech is by having positive images of beach, nature or dog. For entrepreneurs who experience adversity and failure, we can have positive images through gratitude. We can be happy by being grateful for our blessings. There is so much for be happy for our blessings
