How to Stop being Shy and Quite :

Increasing Confidence: I know this seems obvious, however it doesn’t just mean to talk more or with more power or “believe in yourself”. It means have self-confidence, try to believe in whatever you are doing and understand why you are doing it. This will help you to stop being shy and this will make you feel as if everything you do and say has a purpose and a meaning, making it easier to speak your mind.

Learn About Yourself : Understanding why you have the thoughts and feel the way you do is one of the most important parts of overcoming your shyness. If you can try to grasp what makes you anxious in these situations, you can try to use the previous skills to change this thinking.

Change your tone: If you blush when you’re uncomfortable, don’t equate it with shyness. Let it stand on its own: “I’ve always been quick to blush.”

Avoid the label : Don’t label yourself as shy — or as anything. Let yourself be defined as a unique individual, not a single trait.

Know your strengths: Make a list of all your positive qualities — enlist a friend or family member to help if you need to — and read or recite it when you’re feeling insecure. Let it remind you how much you have to offer.

Make Yourself Noticeable: One of the hardest things about overcoming your social anxiety is initiating conversations with new people. This can be avoided if you make yourself noticeable so other people will come talk to you.

Choose relationships carefully: Shy people tend to have fewer but deeper friendships — which means your choice of friend or partner is even more important. Give your time to the people in your life who are responsive, warm, and encouraging.

Remember that one bad moment doesn’t mean a bad day : Especially when you spend a lot of time inside your own head, as shy people tend to do, it’s easy to distort experiences, to think that your shyness ruined an entire event — when chances are it wasn’t a big deal to anyone but you.

Shut down your imagination : Shy people sometimes feel disapproval or rejection even when it isn’t there. People probably like you much more than you give yourself credit for.

Change Your Thinking: This comes from visualizing daily. Tell yourself that what you imagined can happen. You can have this conversation, nothing will happen and it can be normal. Use the skills you attained from trying to increase your confidence to be more effective in changing your thinking. Stop thinking everything will fail, and focus on succeeding.
