Are you shy ? How can i quit being so shy ?

Answer 1

Being shy in your sentimental or sometimes social life can be a privilege.
It demonstrates balance and judgment of the circumstances, and owing principals too.
I personally prefer and estimate shy and discrete people, who are mostly kind as well, than abrupt and sharp people who invade others' personal space uninvited or over-daring.
I'm sure that as the time passes by you'll be less shy and more self confident in professional matters, but being discrete must remain as it is now.

Answer 2

Be your self ,speak your mind, a lot of people are, or where shy at some point. but once you've been thrown into situations where you have to impress others such as Job interviews, meetings, presentations etc or speaking in front of and audience you will become less worried about being shy and more concerned in how you will improve next time.
I used to be very shy until I had to start talking to people at work and giving the odd presentation . I am self employed now and speak to people at all levels with out feeling insecure or inferior. In fact I now enjoy it.
You need to be confident in yourself and not be to concerned by other peoples views of you, some people say the worst things imaginable but don't really mean it.
Just concentrate on the positive for a while.

you need to get a Lycra suit so the sh*t don't stick

Answer 4

I used to be shy when I was a child going to school. I just didn't like socializing with people who thought of me as, "the smart girl." Most people thought I was some genius, so they felt intimidated hanging out with me. Only my friends weren't scared of me. Also, I always felt nervous making presentations/speeches, because everybody expected me to do well on them. It just puts a lot of pressure on you, and it made me feel even more shy.
For you to get over you shy nature, just try to be more confident. Don't think that everybody's always judging you. I read a survey somewhere that said that if you're giving a presentation to a group, they're actually rooting for you to do well in their minds. So, don't always think that people are there to hurt your feelings or make you feel bad.

Answer 5

Take it a step at a time. You can't go 360 at once. Everything begins with baby steps. Choose the most "least" trait that makes you shy and work on it from the bottom up to the trait or actions which makes you the most shy.

Example: Start with something like telling total strangers "Morning." or "How'd you do?"when you walk past them. If you fidget or stutter, No harm, no foul as you don't know them and won't probably meet them again.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

I sometimes get shy in special occasions. I don't see anything wrong with it though. That is a humane feeling and if it bothers you, just try to act cool and smile. Don't pay too much attention to it since it will make you more tense. Don't forget, everybody has their weak points and if shyness is considered a "weak point", then let it be. It sure is the most innocent one.

Believe me, nobody is going to judge you because you still have not lost the feeling of embarrassment. There are a lot out there who lost it to the limits :)

You seem to be a nice guy, people with some sense will appreciate it ..

Answer 8

I used to be very shy. I am now a singer/guitarist. I overcame my shyness by socialising with small groups of people and start increasing the size of the groups over time. One of the ways I became a "part" of the group was by thinking ahead of time of a story or funny joke and telling it when I was in the gathering. Over time my shyness completely disappeared and now sing of front of thousands of people. I hope this helps.

I am working in sales. When I first started to my job I was very shy. I didn't know how to start to talk to strangers. It didn't take long. My job helped me a lot. Now I am very positive and an easy communicator.
When you talk to people be yourself, they are not different than you.

Answer 10

i used to be a real shy in my childhood but when it started to hurt me i decided to get it over! it's just like a war between your feelings and your mind.But at last i'm not that shy boy anymore :-)

i can really understand how it feels to be a shy.it's one of the worst experiances that a person can ever have cuz it hurts you day after day! Just believe urself and say i'm not shy anymore! and go and do whatever you want before you can't do because of your shyness.For example be active in your friends group.Don't wait anyone to ask you something to talk about,you start the conversation first.That will give you self confidence and you will get over your shyness in time!
