I get nervous when I am under pressure or on the spotlight. What are some things I can do to get rid of that? Any activities or exercises?

That never fully goes away, just keep doing it and it'll matter less and less. Even celebrities get nervous.

Edit: But you should do some power poses before any situation you know you'll be on the spotlight, it'll prepare you to handle the stress better.

If you know your going to be in front of a crowd, hold back on the coffee/energy drinks. They make it way worse.

Try taking up a hobby that regularly has you in the spotlight. Stand up comedy, instruments, community theater, etc. If you're used to being literally in the spotlight, having people's attention on you in a social situation won't be quite so daunting.

Repetition helps. You can increase your learning curve by having good thought patterns.
