Have you ever thought that your shyness in public could be the cause of a boring life? This article will help you recognize and cope with your inhibitions, thereby helping you to live a happier and more fulfilling life.
Steps
Step 1. Assess the situation
Think carefully about your last social interaction. Were you the life of the party or did you mingle with the wallpaper? Did you mingle with boys and girls with confidence or were you too uncomfortable to be able to mingle with someone? In both situations, the second hypothesis shows that you may have inhibitions.
Step 2. Face the situation
Pay attention to your social behavior. If there are any signs of possible inhibitions, don't hesitate to evaluate the situation. Realize that you are in control of your life, and that you can fight against your inhibitions in order to become a better and happier person.
Step 3. Realize the importance of assessing the situation
If your shyness is not analyzed and stopped, it could lead to more serious personal problems, such as additional insecurities that prevent you from communicating openly with colleagues, friends, family and so on, making you frustrated and unhappy.
Step 4. Stay true to yourself
Don't be ashamed of yourself, you should accept and respect yourself. Stop worrying about the judgment and chatter of others, they will only make you even more apprehensive and convince you to ultra-analyze your every action performed in public. Behave naturally, react to circumstances as you please, do not change your actions or opinions because of others. Be strong and determined, people will respect you for it.
Step 5. You lose control
Stop acting chaste. Learn to always have a spontaneous smile, a pleasant attitude will attract other people to you. The people around you are a mirror of yourself, if you smile others will do the same, if you show yourself frowning, you will be surrounded by frowning people. Mingle with those around you, don't think about who should start the conversation, think of yourself as an infinite person and take the first step yourself.
Step 6. Volunteer and participate
Get involved as much as possible in group activities, the more you know how to immerse yourself in an environment, the more fears you will be able to defeat. The fewer fears you have, the fewer your inhibitions will be. If someone invites you to dance, accept the proposal and show the world those moves you have practiced for a long time behind a closed door. Organize some parties yourself and invite your closest friends, it will be a great practice for other events.
Step 7. Don't overdo it
Your goal is to take control of your actions. Losing your inhibitions doesn't mean ignoring your responsibilities. In every situation you are held accountable for your behavior, so even when you are having fun, learn to have appropriate boundaries to avoid becoming a threat to others.
Advice
- Don't force other people, respect their boundaries and make them respect yours.
- Have fun, and ignore the people who judge you. Let their words enter one ear and immediately exit the other.
- Start gradually, such changes don't happen overnight, you have to spontaneously make an effort to smile more, and make people feel comfortable in your presence.
