What is Personal Narrative Writing?
• Introduction: I had always been terrified of public speaking. The mere thought of
standing in front of a crowd, all eyes on me, sent shivers down my spine. However, one
particular experience changed my perspective on public speaking forever.
• Body: It was the day of our school's annual debate competition. Despite my fear, I had
decided to participate, determined to challenge myself. As I stood backstage, waiting for
my turn to speak, my heart was pounding, and my palms were sweaty. I felt like running
away, but I knew I had to face my fear.
• When my name was called, I took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage. As I began to
speak, something remarkable happened. I found myself speaking confidently, my words
flowing smoothly. I was surprised by how calm I felt, and I could see the audience nodding
along, engaged in what I was saying.
• As I finished my speech, a wave of relief washed over me. I had done it. I
had conquered my fear of public speaking. The feeling of accomplishment
was overwhelming, and I knew that this experience would stay with me
forever.
• Conclusion: That day, I learned an important lesson: sometimes, the things
that scare us the most can also be the most rewarding. Overcoming my fear
of public speaking not only boosted my confidence but also taught me the
power of perseverance and determination. It was a personal triumph that I
will always cherish.
