Rooting for other people's failure does get in the way of your success.

Don't start a scene where two people are talking about jumping out of a plane. Start the scene having already jumped. If you are scared, look into your partner's eyes. You will feel better.

Doing what you're afraid of, getting out of your comfort zone, taking risks like that- that's what life is.

When you host a show you have to hopefully be funny at the top and set the tone for a really fun evening.
