Billionaire investor Warren Buffett was “terrified” of public speaking. He was so nervous, in fact, that he would arrange and choose his college classes to avoid having to get up in front of people. At the age of 21, Buffett started his career in the securities business in Omaha and decided that to reach his full potential, he had to overcome his fear of public speaking.

亿万富翁，著名投资家沃伦·巴菲特曾经对在公开场合演讲很恐慌。实际中，他曾经因为紧张，而自己安排和选择大学的课程以避免在众人面前起立发言。在他21岁的时候，巴菲特在奥马哈从事证券业务开始了他的职业生涯，为了发挥他的所有的潜能，他不得不克服害怕公开演讲的这个恐惧。

Buffett revealed his early insecurity in this interview for Levo League, a career website for young women.

巴菲特在接受一个专门为年轻女性提供指导的名叫Levo League的网址的采访中，透露他早期的一些恐惧心理。

The host asked Buffett, “What habits did you cultivate in your 20s and 30s that you see as the foundation of success?” Buffett answered, “ You’ve got to be able to communicate in life and it’s enormously important. Schools, to some extent, under emphasize that. If you can’t communicate and talk to other people and get across your ideas, you’re giving up your potential.”

主持人这样问巴菲特，“你认为在你20多岁和30多岁的时候养成的哪些习惯是你之后获得成功的基石?”巴菲特回答，“你必须要有与人沟通的能力，这是非常重要的。在某种程度上说，学校对这个方面不够重视。如果你不能与人沟通交流，清楚地表达你的观点，你就是在埋没你的潜质。
