Get someone quick to bowl a few at you and let them hit you. They don't hurt THAT much.

Get in to the love of the sting and the contest.

You either need to pull, let it hit your body with your bat away, or duck. I generally don't play the pull and the cut until I'm about 15-20, or feeling comfortable with the pitch and the way the bowler is bowling. I let them hit my body until that happens.
