How I did it: I stopped thinking about how other people would view me. I tried to be bubbly and cheery...without being borderline fake. I had smile on my face even if others didnt smile back. I tried to use intonnations and inflections when speaking instead of one flat monotone. spread optimism! I tried to brighten people's day. I wore bright pieces. they're eye-catchy! (One of the ways you can attract people)

Lessons & tips: At first people will give you a once over like, is she high? lol
But if you are consistent they'll gravitate towards you after all no one likes a downer or kill-joy! Compliment someone each day.

Resources: I observed other vivacious people whom I admire. When they walked into a room..it lit up and their behavior patterns helped alot. I also tried to find that inner joy which radiates from being at peace with God, yourself and your environment. Inner peace is key!
