Performance is a whirlpool of all shades of
arts, and hence, a single phase of art of itself. Having to perform anything
right from tracing a single letter, to debating on the dais is all art.
Moreover, anything performed by you, is nothing but a reflection of yourself;
not because, it exhibits your talents, but simply because it lets you discover
who you are. With that note, I would like to introduce to you the most
intriguing ingredient of CAS, CAS Reflections. The trinity bond between
creativity, action and service is performance and what defines this performance
are the reflections...
In this
reflection, I will be telling you what I perceived from this Sports drill and
how much this activity meant to me. In order to start expressing my views, I
must say that I am not a person who would go in front a lot of people to
perform, fearlessly. Hence, one of the major skills I acquired from this drill
was to perform assertively in front a huge audience. The only way to get rid of
a fear is to 'do it for the first time'. Just do it! All it takes to make that
fear, fear you is to take that first step. That agitation shattered right away,
magically!

Ever since the first practice session, I have
been surprised of my potential. Honestly, the person I would have least
expected to ever go and perform a sports drill in front of the entire school is
myself!
I also learned how to coordinate continuously
with everybody while performing. All the hand exercises and the yoga asanas
were things that i learned for the very first time. Having said that, I feel
the fact that i was learning something new, was way beyond the skills i learned
from this activity.
This activity has had a deep impact on the way i
think and apprehend things. It has made me understand that stage fear is
something that has to be broken down at the earliest because the only way to
prove yourself to the world is by communicating confidently. Though I didn't
communicate to the audience verbally, I believe this activity has led to that
kind of thought because i have finally withdrawn from being afraid of audience.
Honestly, I can feel the dauntlessness in me.
I would like to conclude by saying that this
activity has undoubtedly inculcated different ways of perceiving things in my mind,
and has let me redefine my existence.
