Hi. My dream is to act and I think I could be good at it if I could just stop being so shy and reserved! I have trouble letting go of myself, but the few times I have been able to let go I did very well. How can I get more courage?

The best help I have found is by an author named Elaine Aron and in reading her books: "The Highly Sensitive Person" and "The Highly Sensitive Person in Love".

I used to be shy too. Now, it only happens if I am in a group of people and I don't know anyone. What I used to do was hang out with the usual bunch of idiots that I called my friends and I would sort of separate myself and go meet other people, in college, nobody knew me so I could actually be myself. I was able to come out of my shell and hang out with people who have similar interests, we were able to meet more people that way and more sooner than later, I was able to talk to anyone. The best way to come out of your shell is at a party, depending on how old you are, you sound like you're about 18 or 19. Just have confidence in yourself. If you have a couple of good stories, tell them to people, especially if they are funny. People love to laugh. I hope this helps out. I am sure you will do fine.

If you're self concious, what aspect are you self concious of?
I think it's an age thing. The majority of people, as they get older, realise it really doesn't matter what other people think, and no one really cares. It's mainly just a highschool thing where people care about what's "cool" and what's not.
You could try taking some acting lessons, that might boost your confidence.

Act as who you want to be, and who you want to be will follow. We can only get more courage by showing more courage -- not lacking fear, but by facing danger when we are afraid. Treat others, but especially treat yourself, like you can be and should be, and you'll become what you can be and should be.
