We all know people make mistakes so why fear?

But how does one overcome that fear and act like themselves, and not be afraid anymore even subconsciously of looking stupid?

    You have to not care of the judgement of others.

    The only way to get over your fear is to face it. You would be surprised how little people are actually paying attention to you. If you want to get over that fear, you need to do what you are afraid of. The more you do something over and over again the more comfortable you will be. Also this comes with maturity. I don’t know how old you are, but if you are young then you will care what others think. Its natural as a young teen or child age to think that away. But again you need to be yourself. Nothing is worse than being a fake. Instead of caring what others think, just be who you were created to be. Don’t be rude or offensive but just be yourself. When you are yourself no one can mistake you for being a giant fake. Forget about what others think because in the end it really doesn’t matter.
