New Friends

It is easy to fall into a routine when you hang out with the same people day in and day out. I propose you do something new. Hang out with new people. Step out of your comfort zone and make some new friends!

Go out and do something you don't normally do.  You may surprise yourself by enjoying the company of people you usually wouldn't hang out with. It is a great way to open up and expand your boundaries. I myself can vouch to that since I moved to a new country where I did not know anyone at all, and today I have broadened my horizon with knowing people from all over the world, it also gives you a perspective of how other people improved being more social but from different places in the world. Being shy is a universal phenomenon.

Keep it simple stupid! (K.I.S.S)

There is one simple thing a person needs to change to come out of their shell, it took me weeks of blogging before I realized the first step a person needs to get to... Stop labeling yourself as being shy, very simple. As long as we keep labeling ourself as shy we will never let it go, we need to stop using the word "shy" in our daily lives, do not EVER say that you are shy, if you have to stay away from certain situation just say you are not comfortable. It is very simple, as my mentor would always say; "Keep it simple stupid!"

Do not label yourself of being shy

When you label something it stays embedded in your mind, it does not matter if it has to do with yourself (which in this case it does) but it could have to do with anything you do in your life. If you keep telling yourself that you suck at certain things, lets take sports for example. "Damn, I suck majorly at tennis", "Oh my god, I am a punk for not being able to talk to that girl..." Things like that will always keep you back from improving, you have to have the confidence of a champion! Muhammad Ali is a good example; "I am the greatest" he kept saying that his whole entire life, look at him now. Yes, I bet he is singing on the Chris Brown song "Look at me now" every day, I would.

Here is something you can do to try to get out of your shell, organize a flash mob together with your friends and have FUN! I decided to do this to show you all that you cannot die by messing around together with your friends, you might be embarrassed about your dance moves (not mine of course, I am just to good) but the point is to at least try, trying is what defines you!

And yes, I had no idea about how to dance to the last song.
