Your lack of social confidence can
manifest in many ways. Maybe you don't feel comfortable meeting new people.
Maybe you feel shy walking up to a group and joining in. It could be really hard
for you to ask someone for a date or to call a friend and suggest going out.
Some people are comfortable in certain social settings, but fear speaking out at
work or in a meeting. Knowing exactly what makes you uncomfortable or anxious is
the first step toward correcting the problem. Often we're so steeped in fear and
avoidance, we haven't taken the time to identify the specific cause.
Action Steps: Think about the situations or
scenarios where you feel least comfortable socially. What exactly triggers these
feelings? Where are you and what are you doing? What are the feelings or
physical symptoms you experience in these situations? Just identifying these
will give you awareness of the issue and where it holds you back
