It's trying to be something else. Trying conflicts with being in the now.

That's a bit different. I would argue that if you are not able to both give a speech and work on improving your voice then that is the wrong place to work on your voice. My point still stands on the belief behind the voice. If you have an accurate self image of your voice AND accept it for being what it is then there is no problem whatsoever. Now if you decide to work on your voice, you can. If you really want to improve your voice I highly recommend voice lessons. I'm doing it and finding out alot about the human voice and how it works.
@Marco Polo: I'd argue that the making yourself vulnerable can be applied elsewhere as well. Vulnerable might be the wrong word though. I find I can expose my true self and while some may say that makes me vulnerable. I don't exactly think of it that way. Its the same sort of concept though. I'd basically call it a freedom to fail and a freedom from letting what other people think of you bother you.
