you have to know what you want and what u want to stand up for. then speak your mind. you can be polite at the same time. but just speak up.

The best thing I did to overcome shyness was to get a job where I had to deal with people all day long. It made me come out of my shell and gain the confidence I needed to move up in the world. If you're not ready for that big a step, just make sure to start a conversation with someone you would not normally talk to each day. The more you do it, the easier it will get. Good luck!

I used to be a very shy person and basically I feel I was that way because I wasn't confident in myself...I was scared to speak up and always worried about what other people think. What I would do is focus on your confidence...no matter what situation your in there are always going to be people who disagree or who don't like you...but so what? It takes time but put yourself in situations dealing with people all the time and eventually you'll start to break out of your shell. Good luck!

I once heard that the being shy is being selfish. Think about it
if we are shy we are keeping who we are to only ourselves. We are not shareing all the good that we can bring . You are worried about what YOU may say, what YOU may do wrong, what YOU... do you get what I am saying. It is all about YOU. So just look at it this way, if you hold back someone is missing out on the wonderful person that you are. Start by smiling more at others, then move on to saying hi, then talk to people about small stuff. Good luck .

there really isn't a quick answer for your question. being shy is generally about confidence. Once you come to realize how awesome you are and how unique you are. and realize that everyone needs to be given the chance to get to know the real you, you'll give up the shyness and start strutting your stuff.

I used to be rather shy too ( still am to an extent), but I've learned to outgrow it by trying not to worry aout what others might think. I've learned to speak up for myself. Also, what has has helped me is having a very outgoing best friend....it kinds rubs off on ya! LOL Best wishes!

in was shy for a long time and in the end you come to realise that however you act needs to be who you are and that there are always going to be people who do not like it and that is it so just be who you really are
and be happy

The only way to overcome it, is to communicate more. Try calling up people or meeting up new friends by joining some activity.

Be yourself and stand up for what you believe in. People are going to judge you either way, either you let it effect you or you dont. Live your life and don't let others live it for you.
Wouldnt you rather be hated for who you are than loved for who you're not?
