i think there is only one trait required to become perfect at talking: not being afraid to embarrass (blamieren in german) yourself

[_MVP_]

if u have this trait u will not care even if you get caught in front of camera failing to answer questions in an interview or saying something "wrong"
like even if u get asked questions and only give one word answers all the time many times, u legit dont care, as if other humans are robots. even if u embarrass yourself a million times, worse than anyone else, ever, u dont care.
the key is just knowing u automatically get better at talking, in interviews, and in front of a camera

i try to achieve this mindset. if i truly had this, i would be unstoppable

one key is knowing the worse u embarrass yourself, the better u will feel later.

I find the most difficult thing in a convo is to avoid awkward silence and actually having something to talk about that isn't repetitive small talk to keep it flowing and not make it like you're interrogating them by asking questions.
