How I did it: Well, I'm still not 100% over my shyness/anxiety. However, I'm a lot better off now than say, a year ago. I've worked at the same place for a little over a year now and I've JUST NOW really started making friends. Over this past year I've met a good bit of new people and have become open and comfortable with them- even people I've only hung out with a few times. I don't get quite as anxious/nervous around new people- it's great to feel normal! Read how I did it…

I consider this a completed goal. Volunteering has gotten me out of the house in ways that even school never did. Here’s to volunteering and to the hope that this will keep up.

I’m trying out a few volunteer gigs to see if it will ease me out of my shell. Here’s to hoping.
Reandom on your mark, get set, GO!
I talked to a clerk at a store I feel apprehensive about. the only reason for that is because there is alot of preppy people that go in there and I just feel awkward around people like that. Anyway I felt good and finally comfortable in my own skin for once. It could be that I ran today and that ALWAYS boosts my confidence.

i used to be a social butterfly but I moved to Alaska and now I am terrified of meeting new people. I am not sure why and I HOPE I can get over this!
coz in the evaluation in me according to my friends and classmates…
they said i should communicate and approach other people coz i really don’t… they say i seems confident but afraid to approach…
they didn’t know i’m just afraid of rejection, that’s why i’m waiting for them to approach me… i want to change… i want to minimize the fear of rejection i have…
It’s difficult task for me. I’m insular enough. I always ready to find causes for why I haven’t to talk to that or this person.
