1.How to prepare for the first time at everything?The following ways may help you.
Never try to be perfect.
It's true that you can hardly manage to do something perfectly the first time you do it.So when you do something for the first time,it is time to just have a try and never think about the result.Also,being perfect is just another excuse to do things later,so trying to be perfect is just a waste of time.
Forget what others think.
In order to make you feel less stressed about your first time,just forget what others are thinking of you.First,many people don't really care that much if you happen to fail at something.Second,remember that others have also started from "zero"as well.Third,focus on your own performance,not on others. .
The time you spend doesn't matter.
One common characteristic of doing something for the first time is that more time is spent.Just be slow and try to learn as much as possible.You will realize that the second time is much easier,since you already have some experience in your pocket.
Plan and prepare.
If possible,try to plan and prepare as much as possible before doing something new.You will gain more self-confidence in this way,and by planning and preparing,you actually may control things well.
Prepare for the second time.
Once you have gone through your "first time experience",you'll have broken the biggest barrier of all.The excitement and fear is most likely gone and the next time won't be that scary anymore.So you just get ready for the second time.
(1)How many ways are mentioned to prepare for the first time at everything?
