The leap of simply saying these inspirational words in front of everyone at the Championship event should be something you're not afraid of -- it is the first step for taking these words and inspirations putting them to execution.

Your words and thoughts flow very nicely, so don't worry about your diction or grammar just yet. That's what editors and interns are for
Your point is well taken. I better start writing for THAT speech now. Hopefully, I will be done in 2 years .

Tell you what. I promise I won't be afraid of speaking in front of my students, and when the time comes, I won't be afraid of speaking in front of the Bay Area teams when it's Cal Games again. I won't be afraid of testing my ideas and practicing my pen, and when the time comes when I have something worthy to say to every single FIRST student, parents, mentors, and volunteers at the Championship Event, I won't be afraid to step forward.

Baby steps. That's the key to it. Baby steps.
