How I did it: Well, it kind of gradually took years. I used to be that shy girl in the class with a few close friends and problems with bullies. As I grew older, I became more outgoing, but only with my group of friends. I remember when I was 12, I made a life goal to be more outgoing, because I was still shy to everybody but my friends. I don't know what I did, but it just happened! I think you need a good sense of humour, a big smile and that boost to start a conversation. Now, I am known as very outgoing. I talk to everyone, try everything and put myself out there. The thing is, I didn't automatically become this, it was gradual - so it is still me.
