How To Overcome Shyness This Year by andychukse(m): 11:18am On Jan 09, 2016 |
To some people it is natural to interact with people or strike up conversation with strangers, however, to many other persons it is a big challenge. Before, I find it difficult talking to strangers especially when I come into a new environment. Most times, it’s not because I don’t want to, but because I fear about how they will react; how they might judge or reject me. You have to challenge shyness and kick it out of your life. You might be introverted at heart, but that doesn’t mean you have to be shy. Shyness is a habit that can be broken, knowing this is a big first step in understanding that you can develop social skills. Here is a summary of the article - How to Overcome Shyness and Embrace talking to People Know Why You’re Shy For example, do you become shy when meeting new people, interacting at a social gathering, or speaking to someone to whom you find yourself attracted? When you have a better understanding of your shyness, you can figure out the best route to overcome it. It’s Not All About You Shy people often overthink their behavior and responses. You’d end up obsessively mulling over everything you said or did, wondering what others think of you. Did I say something stupid? Did I say something that might seem offensive? You have to stop over thinking about what to say, how people will react to it. Accept it, Set up a task for yourself A problem identified is half solved. First, set up small tasks you must do daily. For example if you work in an office, you can decide to greet everyone every morning you come to the office. The task has to be something you can easily do diligently. Take a Public Speaking Class This is not for everyone, but public speaking classes can be very helpful. Learn the Art of Small Talk Small talk is an essential part of social interaction. For shy people, it can also be really helpful for getting used to that interaction – like practice for the real thing.

Joavid: To some people, when they mingle with very social people the hide behind them and let them do all the interactions, that way they get withdrawn more. Having the friends is not just enough for them, they will have to be willing to take a step first. 1 Like |

andychukse: That's what am talking about. Their friends are not just going to hang around him without influencing him and encouraging him to take a step. Infact, they don't need to do nothing, it will just happen naturally. You can't have social friends that you roll with and still remain shy. 2 Likes |
