\u201cI had been terrified of public speaking. I couldn\u2019t do it\u201d billionaire Warren Buffett admits in the HBO documentary, “Becoming Warren Buffett<\/a>“. Buffett conquered his nerves by enrolling in a public speaking course and it changed his life.<\/p>\n

“Every week the instructor would give a pencil to whoever had the done the most of what we had learned the week before,\u201d Buffett explained. \u201cSo in the fourth or fifth week, I proposed [to Susie]. And she said yes. That week I got the pencil, and got engaged.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cIn my office, you will not see the degree that I got from the University of Nebraska. You will not see the master’s degree I got from Columbia University. But you will see the award certificate I got from the Dale Carnegie Course,\u201d Buffett said.
