Let me tell you the best-kept secret about over coming stage fright. It's hard at first but then it's easy. A couple of things that will help, 1. Start with a small group, about 10 to 15 people. 2. Try a school play or talent show make a video. 3. Put your video on YouTube.
Do: Find Friends and practice in front of them. I found some friends and started singing in front of them and it helped to work my way up to number 2. I never made it to number 3, but I want to try.
Don't: Hide from the world and not let them hear your voice. It's better to be heard than unheard. Trust me that's what I did, for the longest time, it sucked.
Do: Let your voice be heard because, if your voice isn't heard soon, then when you want to be heard no one will listen to you. It's almost like the story " the boy who cried wolf." Why, because when you are heard it's easy to say what you want to say, but when you are not heard it's not as easy as they say it is.
Don't: Fear the opportunity that's been given to you, take it and you'll get the best chance you could have to be heard. That opportunity will help you in many ways that you could imagine, like take you to Hollywood, Nashville, or even The Voice, that can change your life.
Do: Have people listen to you and hear what you can do, and have them help you out and get you where you need to be to be successful in your life and make it better for you and your family I the future.
Don't: Give up on what you can do. Don't let yourself down, or give up on yourself for how hard you worked for it. Letting yourself down can effect the rest of your life, and maybe make things harder for you to be yourself around others. In those years that past, you can be use to what is right to you, but if you give up so soon then you'll never really understand what's right. In ten years from now you'll probably think why did I just sit there and not do what I wanted to do, like get up and say what I wanted to say, or do what I was hoping to do in the place.
I had to learn from my mistakes, just from sitting there and not doing what I wanted to do or be it was hard but I did it and I'm still working on speaking up or out. Now all that's left for you to do is do make it happen and change your life while you have the chance to. Don't do what I did but do what's right for you.

I love your post because I love to perform in front of people. The adrenaline in my gut is heart stopping and intense, honestly I love it. the rush is always worth the effort thx Lyndee.
I agree that you should start small and work your way up. I think it would apply to other things as well like heights and I'm afraid of heights. I don't want to work my whay up I just want to do something extrem I terififed of the wicked but I want to go skie diving so I might just do that.im not sure thought.
Lyndee I agree with you that you need to start small. I definitely agree that posting things on You Tube will help you go big. I love the fact that you picked a group of friends. I used stuffed animals to not be afraid of stage fright.
