Being nervous isn’t bad. It just means something important is happening.
What Michael Jordan says is true. Most of my immigration clients are apprehensive before their visa interviews. I make a point of meeting with them before their assigned appointment to review their respective files as well as offer them insights into what to expect in the interview. I find this exchange helps ease some of their stress, but it is natural to have a case of nerves when the results of the interview are possibly life-altering. As another sports figure Tiger Woods remarked, “If you’re not nervous, it means you don’t care.” I don’t have a client that doesn’t care.
