Deep dives

Overcoming the mindset of shyness

To overcome shyness, you must first change your mindset. Recognize that you are not inherently shy, but that shyness is a learned behavior that can be unlearned. This idea of being a 'shy type of person' is a dangerous belief that limits your potential. By working on your social skills and gradually pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone, you can make progress and no longer be identified as an introvert.
