How to Beat Shyness

by johnlazy on December 4, 2008

I’m also a shy type of guy before that’s how I saw myself growing up, maybe because that’s my nature. I’m afraid to socialize, to say something, to show my talents and I have no PR at all. The feeling of growing up with shyness is awkward because you are always holding back yourself.

So how do I beat up shyness? I don’t know either, maybe because I’m so sick and tired of living my life where I can’t do what I want to do and I can’t say what I want to say. And there will come to a point that you have to do something about it. I know it is not easy, me too has difficulty in this kind of transition from being a shy person to a vocal one. I’m not saying that I don’t get shy now, what I’m saying is you have to improve your public relation on how to handle people and how to handle things.

So how to beat shyness:

•    LEARN TO UPGRADE YOURSELF

If you are used to be shy in talking to people, upgrade yourself by thickening your face. Try to engage in any conversation more, just don’t think any consequences just engage and you will see the big difference. You will be more comfortable in talking to people in the future.

•    DON’T BE AFRAID, YOU ARE COMMUNICATING TO HUMAN BEING

Think always that you are communicating to human being and nothing to worry about. Human beings are not aliens, don’t be afraid of it and they have no super powers, everything they can say you can say also, doesn’t be mesmerized by anyone.

•    GIVE YOURSELF A CHANCE TO BE YOURSELF

Remember when you are with your family and friends you’re comfortable right! Just remember to be comfortable also when you are with someone else. So how to do it, Think of them as your buddy just to settle down your nervousness and try to be as relax as possible. Breathe in breath out. That’s the way to do it!

•    TRY TO SMILE AND BE ACCOMMODATING

This will be a great practice that you should do. Have a smiling face all the time; think yourself as a movie star that you have a responsibility to smile to everyone. Nothing can beat a smiling face, it will only shows that you are very accommodating to everyone.

•    JOIN IN ANY SOCIAL ORGANIZATION

Join in any social organization and events. This will be your training ground to beat shyness because you will be hand in hand with people and interacting with them is a must. You can learn so many things here like everyone else. You can learn to improve your socialization that can open up your true self and the obligation to be better yourself.

These are some of the things you can do, Remember if you want to beat shyness you have to act on it and do something, don’t self pity.

Is shyness a big of a problem? Or you can handle it.

This is great….I tend to be shy when I first meet someone and later on when I get to know them I talk to them constantly. When I don’t talk right off to someone….I’ve been told I seem like I am stuck up. I assure them I am not, but it seems as though they can’t grasp that concept.

Maybe you just want a starting point to get going well its takes a lot of practice to learn to initiate conversation, the important thing is the willingness. Take care Jessica!

12 Jessica December 8, 2008 at 11:17 pm

I have the willingness, but it seems no one else seems to. People seem to bore me. They are fakey and unreliable. I tend to not like talking to people my age, because they seem to be so immature!!! Or is that just me? I would like to have an actual conversation with someone who will listen and like to actually respond with reason. Wish you the best johnlazy!!!!
