Rob, you have helped me so

Rob, you have helped me so much because of these words. Your words have really opened my eyes about believing in myself. I am one of those people who have stage fright and I am really shy. I hardly talk in school because I worry too much about what people think of me. I really hate on myself and I always say bad things about myself. When people say, what do you want to do when you are older? My answer is always I have no idea. Whenever I think about doing anything I automatically say I can’t do it because I’m not good enough. Recently I had to do a speech in school which I was terrified about. I had to talk in front of the whole class and it was an assessment for my English GCSE. I was totally dreading it the whole week leading up to it. I was getting ready for a fail.
The day before I had to do it I went to see you at Villa Park. The concert was amazing I will never forget it. You looked right at me and I couldn’t believe it. I really hated the fact that I might be worrying about the speech for the next morning throughout the concert. But when you came out to sing Let Me Entertain You, I started thinking, I knew that you have had stage fright the same as me and I thought , if Robbie can do this show in front of 50,000 people then I can do a speech in front of 30 people in my class at school. I knew if I could just get the confidence and believe in myself then I could do it.
The next day I was worried but I thought about the TT concert and got some confidence in myself. The time came when I had to do the speech and I thought of you. Guess what... I ended up doing really well and got an A! I couldn’t believe it. I normally do badly in English...
I really think that I hadn’t been at the concert the night before then I would have not done as well and would have failed badly. You have really helped me, and these words that you have just said here have helped me 10 x more. Whenever I feel badly about myself or feel not confident I will read these words and use your advice and start thinking positively about myself. Hopefully this will make me be more confident in life.
Thank you xxx
Love a ‘friend’ of yours, Catherine xxx

I'M GOING TO BE A DAD...MAYBE NEXT YEAR
OR THE YEAR AFTER...AND I DON'T WANT THEIR DAD
TO BE EMOTIONALLY INEPT....FOR MY OWN WELL BEING AS WELL AS THEIRS
AT THE START OF THE YEAR I GOT A FEELING THAT "THINGS" CAN BE DIFFERENT
IT STARTED AS AN EMBER AND NOW BECAUSE OF THE TOUR IT'S A FURNACE..
IN FACT IT STARTED WHEN WE AS A COUPLE WERE KINDLY INVITED ON A HOLIDAY
THAT WAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME THING....BUT INVOLVED GOING WITH PEOPLE
WE DIDN'T KNOW...MY AUTOMATIC REACTION NORMALLY WOULD HAVE BEEN
"NO" BE SAFE DON'T STEP OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE....THEN I THOUGHT
OF THE KIDS WE'RE YET TO HAVE AND SAID "NO **** IT...I WANT THEIR DAD TO BE ABLE
TO DO THIS SORT OF THING…." SO I DID....THINGS JUST SNOW BALLED FROM THERE...
@KKDEE..YES ME AND YOU HAVE A DATE WITH JEREMY KYLE VERY SOON

NOW OR IN THE FUTURE SHOULD BE REGARDED AS PANTO....I DON'T PLAN ON SAYING ANYTHING

LIAM IF YOU'RE LISTENING I'VE GOT NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR YOU.....
GOOD LUCK WTH PRETTY GREEN BUT FROM WHAT I SEE YOU DON'T NEED IT...

@MARYBETH72..YOU MAY NOT HAVE A CHOICE IN WHAT LIFE THROWS
AT YOU BUT YOU HAVE A CHOICE IN HOW YOU REACT TO IT...
@SHELLEY336...GOOD WORK BAB X
@1111..I KNOW A BIT ABOUT SACRED GEOMETRY...
IN FACT I WAS WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY ON THE SUBJECT
ON MY LAPTOP...WALKING AROUND THE HOUSE WHILST WATCHING
I LOOK UP AND THERE'S THE TREE OF LIFE ON MY CHEST OF DRAWS
IN FACT...I NATURALLY GRAVITATED TO SACRED GEOMETRY
BEFORE I KNEW WHAT IT WAS....BECAUSE IN BITS AND BOBS
IT'S ALL OVER MY HOUSE.....
DO I SEE OR FEEL THE ENERGY COMING OFF THE CROWD?
HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SEE IT YET...WOULD LOVE TO...
BUT LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU AND ANGELS IS AS CLOSE TO A DIVINE
FEELING THAT I WILL EVER GET.,....OTHER THAN GOING THERE ; )
DO I SEE ORBS? NO, PHOTOGRAPHED MANY.....
AFTER CARDIFF..THINGS SEEMED TO CHANGE?
I'M REACTING TO THE ENERGY FROM THE CROWD
I DON'T KNOW WHY AFTER CARDIFF BUT I FEEL
IM DOING SOMETHING RIGHT...I MAY FALL BY THE WAYSIDE
BUT THIS FEELS LIKE A TRUE PURPOSE...THE "SOMETHING" ELSE
THAT I AM MEANT TO DO....I DON'T KNOW...DON'T TRUST MYSELF
TO KNOW HOW LONG OR WHERE IT WILL GO..I JUST KNOW
THIS FEELS GOOD...IT COULD BE NARCISM AT IT'S MOST
EXTREME...IF THAT IS THE CASE…I'M A REALLY HAPPY
NARCISSIST RIGHT NOW...
WHAT ARE MY FEELINGS ABOUT 2012?
WELL,I MAY BE KIDDING MYSELF BUT I HAVE FELT THE VEIL
COME DOWN THIS YEAR...THERE'S SO MUCH I COULD SAY...
BUT ALAS IT'S NOT FOR HERE I DON'T THINK...I DO FEEL
POSITIVE ABOUT NEXT YEAR THOUGH.BUT WEIRDLY I ALSO FEEL
JAPAN ISN'T THE LAST....
SO IF I SAID YOU WERE A HEALER OF THE MASSES WOULD I TAKE THAT ON STAGE
WITH ME....?
HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO ANSWER THAT WITHOUT GETTING BATTERED FOR ANSWERING
IT IN THE AFFIRMATIVE?
I KNOW WHAT I AM ......(IF WE WAKE UP,THEY ARE ****ED IT'S WHY WE ARE THE WAY WE ARE)
DOES IT FEEL GOOD TO BE TALKING LIKE THIS?
HELL YEAH....LIBERATING...BUT STILL...TRYING TO TAKE STOCK OF WHAT TO DO WITH IT....
GURUS? LOOK, I KNOW NOTHING BUT I FEEL A LOT....IT HAS TO BE THE INDIVIDUAL
IT HAS TO COME FROM WITHIN….IT'S ALL WE'VE GOT ......I MAY FALL BACK...
I MAY GIVE IN...BUT I DO KNOW THERE WAS A MOMENT IN MY LIFE WHERE "I GOT IT"
THANK YOU X
