Here's a part of an e-mail answer {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Joe giving some advice to his son in college. "When I was young, I often met problems about what to do and what {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(not do).

    My grandmother told me not {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(worry) about those things.  I {#blank#}4{#/blank#}ever agree with her. Instead, I try to do those things well, and I do {#blank#}5{#/blank#} every day. For example, I need to eat every day, so I should learn how {#blank#}6{#/blank#}  (cook).  I need to talk to {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(other) every day, so I should learn how to work with different people and know {#blank#}8{#/blank#}speak well. I walk every day, so my {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(shoe) should be all right and comfortable. Every night, I sleep, so my bed should let me have a good rest. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(take) care of the everyday things means that you do a better job which you need to do in a life time as well.

If you get really nervous when you have to perform in front of many people, you're not {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. It's a very common fear. Even some very experienced actors and musicians get very stressed before performing. Some people say that {#blank#}2{#/blank#} makes them give a better performance, but other people can feel so nervous that they can't perform at all. This is a very {#blank#}3{#/blank#} problem because it influences their confidence and even career. 

The most useful thing to do if you worry about a performance is to try to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Don't think about all the things that could go wrong. Instead, keep calm and think of a good result. Before the performance, imagine people cheering. Think about how good you will feel after a successful performance. And remember, if you make a few small mistakes, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} people won't even notice.
