Question

id love to take music for my options but im way 2 shy to sing when i realy want to do it how can i be lots more confident ??

Answer 1

I was like that until my friends voted me in to audition for a solo part in a song, and everyone reaslised that I was actually really good and I got the solo! It took me a while to get out of my stadge of shyness......Due time, you should get out of that stage! You just have to give it time. Try singing and looking at the wall or the floor. Thats how I started out. Good Luck!

Answer 2

One of the best ways to get over shyness is to think of the things that make you nervous and then practice working on them. For example, if you want to start a conversation with a crush in your English class, you can practice in private the ways you'd do it if you weren't so shy. Just working on smiling and saying "hello" is a good start. Some people find it helps to rehearse in front of a mirror, similar to practicing lines for a play. This can help them feel more comfortable with a new approach.

Then you can start smiling and saying "hello" in real life. You might also try joining a group or team activity that interests you, like a sports team or the yearbook committee. Of course you'll feel anxious at first — that's perfectly normal. Remember that the more you practice, the more comfortable you’ll feel.

I know what you are talking about, - it's very hard, and I was alway's afraid that someone was going to jump in and berate me, like a bullying father, (or mother for some), and tell me I did'nt know what I was talking about and to just shut the hell up, and go do some thing useful like (some chore he knew I detested - and in such a sarcastic voice I - it just made my blood curdle).. So let's omit that candidate from our focus group - OK?

Gather a grolup of supportive friends around you. Make sure you have your best friend and the one you trust the most in the middle of the gang. Explain to them that you want to work on being less shy, and need their help. All they have to do is watch & listen as you give a demonstration speech, and in the future you'd really appreciate it if they would be your "Audience" for 5 minutes from time to time, so you can work on comming out of your shell. If you can't do this, have your best friend tell them.

Now you must be very good at something; french braiding, ironing a blouse, making enchiladas, something that might appeal to your friends, - high-lighting hair, playing no limit poker, - something that you can demonstrate in 3-4 minutes, explaining what yuou are doing as you go. Maybe its making party treats - sometthing that you can all eat after you are done with your presentation - as their "reward" for being your audience..

Lets say you decide to make delux Special K Bars with a lite strawberry yougut frosting. Get the ingredients for making 4 or 5 batches. Start practicing making the bars - do you mate the frosting first, so that it's read & cooled to go on the the bars as soon as you've pressed the bar mixture into the pan? Did you get spray on PAM to coat everything? The bowl, your hands, the pan, the spatula - etc?

Start by setting up your demonstration & preparation area, and designating you audience area, - so thaey can watchg what you are doing, and hear what you arfe saying, and you can make good eye contact with them. Maybe you r prep area is an island kitchen counter, with you on one side and the audience on the other.

That settles, practicing using "dry" ingredients, set the timer on the microwave or clock or oven and make and frost the bars.. If you find that you can not start form scratch and finish frosting the bars, and have them ready to cut & eat in less than 5 minutes, - no problem - you "stage" your props. in other words, you make up your bars at different stages of completion ahead of time, and hoild then in reserveout of site, or covered on the back counter. You star by showing the ingredients you are going to use - already in separate glass bowls - ready to go into a big mixing bowl(remember to spray PAM on the big mixing bowl and on the marshmallow creme bowl and mixing spatula). Describe the process as you dumpo the ingredients in the bowl and start to mix together. Stop, set aside the bow.ls. and bring forth the 9 x 13 pan with the mixture already pressed firmly in placeand set off to the side of the counter. then bring up the yougurt frosting ingerdients - which you have placed in measured amounts in separate bowls ahead of time, mix the ingedients & prepare fosting. Set frosting mix and bowls aside. Get frosting mix prepared ashead of time out of fridge and frost un-frosted bar-mix in cake pan. continuing to give speech all the time.. When the frosting is done - so should your speech. Bona Petitet'

Practice in front of the mirror, and then with the utinsels. Do it so that it's automatic, so you could do it in your sleep. Then when you do it for real for the girls - focus on looking at your audience. If your feels panic look at your best friend and focus on her - TALK to her - give her alone the speech. Youn CAN do this!

As you gain more confidence join Toast Masters, (Yes they have women members) - and they will be able to help you immensely, and in a short time you will be giving speeches, and looking people in the eye, and giving all a firm handshake and a hearty "hello - it's a pleasure to meet you" Good Luck

I'm pulling for you.

Answer 5

ask your self first :1* is shyness conspict your dreams and aims in live?
2*are thes feeling make you happey?
3*do you love your self , if answer yes , so why you let beautiful things faraway about you?
4* do you prefer the power or weakness , if your answer is: the power , so why you let small things make you weakness?

if you can answer these questions , im shure that you will forget the meaning of unacceptable shyness.

Answer 6

in case you rather are beautiful and carry close out with men then you could desire to be getting a minimum of excellent male interest. character beats seems so because it is why the lots of the uglier females have boyfriends. you in basic terms could desire to grow to be extra outgoing and attempt to entice the attention of alternative men on a similar time as continuously being impressive.

Find a theatre group in your area and join. Sometimes being other people, through acting, can release you to be yourself.

your best bet is to practice until you KNOW that your voice is good and you are comfortable in that knowledge.
confidence comes with being comfortable with yourself as well.
