What makes us shy: \nLack of self confidence \nAfraid that others will be mock at us if we make mistakes ( in other words, pride) \nA SHY PERSON: \nSelf image as a person who isn't good at (the subject of each title) \nRerunning (looping) past failed actions in your mind \nNot feeling responsible for your failed actions/decision/results... blaming (victim mentality) \nLack of confidence (causes procrastination, blocks efforts completely) \nPositive neuro-associations to unsupportive people, places, actions (creates reluctance to put in effort to get result) \nNegative neuro-associations to supportive people, places, actions (also creates reluctance to put in effort to get results) \nFear/anxiety about failure and/or success (makes correct decisions/actions difficult or impossible) \nBrain represents goal related tasks/decisions as larger, scarier and more difficult than they truly are. This adds to fear and paralysis, further making goal achieving activities difficult/impossible. \nBrain represents mistakes/setbacks/delays as more damaging than they actually are. Creates frustration, fear, anger, anxiety. \nVisualizing/imagining future poor/failed actions and poor/failed results (creating a well rehearsed script to follow). \nFeelings of stress/fatigue/breakdown in body due to the patterns above \nSHYNESS LEADS TO FAILURE \nThese are unconscious mental programs that run without you even being aware of it.  \n\nThey are the source of most depression, frustration, anger, jealousy, fear, laziness, boredom, impatience, dishonesty and pessimism.\n\nThink about it... when you are afraid, when you are procrastinating, when you load on the sour cream, when you decide to watch TV instead of practicing or studying the information that could make you rich/healthy/happy/productive, when you throw the interception or miss the shot, you're not aware of these brain functions.  \n\nNo.  \n\nYou just know (believe) that something seemed scary... \n\nYou didn't want to do it now... \n\nJust a little won't hurt... \n\nYou may believe that you wouldn't get to play/get an 'A' whether you practice/study or not... now you are going to lose.  \n\nIt's the way you "think about things" (the way your brain represents them to you) that controls your moods/states.  \n\nAnd your mood/state controls every single one of your actions and decisions from the time you wake up till the moment you fall asleep...  \n\nEvery single one of them.\n\nHOW TO OVERCOME SHYNESS \nDo be afraid to be mocked at by others ( but please do not go to the point of shameless! ) \nPractise talking to large groups of people \nHave self-confidence \nWalk not with your head down, but with your head UP. \nBest Wishes and Good Luck :-)

I think shy people tend to only talk when they are spoken to first.  They avoid eye contact, and probably look uncomfortable if they are in a situation where they don't know many people.  I'm extremely shy (around people I don't know), and I've been told that I come off "mean" and act like I'm "better than everyone else" when really, I just can't get the courage up to talk to anyone!

If you have honestly tried your best to fight your shyness with little , or no, success, you might need to go to the doctor, and be put on some medication for it. I, too, am shy, but I fight it every day, and "make" myself talk to people, and interact. Good Luck!!

Shyness is all in the mind. I should know... I'm a shy type of person myself. An people think that I'm a snob because of this. The best thing to do is develop self-confidence and try to mingle with people. Just always remember that we are all born equal... So you don't have to be shy in front of a stranger because we are all human beings dwelling in this world. And whenever you found yourself being shy, try to think that you are not. Remember, what you think about yourself reflects... Smile!

I use to be really really shy too! But one day it hit me that when people firts meet you they have NO IDEA who you are, so you can make yourself who ever you want to be weather its shy or outgoing. And I attempted it one day and made myself an outgoing person by taking the first step in asking all kind of questions (believe me I was soo nervouse because of my shyness) and by the time I knew I was able to talk to those people with no probelms and people would refer to me as a social butterfly but little did they know I was very shy. Well in time I really did become the social butterfly it just took some time and it took some working at. Be patient but learn to take steps. And those steps could be your the first one to speak up or out. If you always the first to do something you will overcome your shyness thats why I did and now I am leader. Good Luck and dont let shyness overcome you.

LOL some shy girls can be crazy too.  They just probably wont embarrass you as much as the loud crazy ones in public.

I used to be really shy, especially around people I liked. I guess I got nervous. Then I realized, Just relax & talk to them like I'd known them 4ever, & if they don't like me, then I'm no worse off than I was before. I've made a lot more friends that way!

..Yes there right...(sadly though theres nothing wrong with being shy)..that is untill it interfers with your life & slowly engripts U in it's will.\nBut it sometimes just takes time...time to say:Y do I let this dominate me,I can get rid of it...face it in battle & win! If she can..then incourage her.\nIm shy to,but sometimes being shy can work to your advantage.\n-megnalon

Are you sure you are shy and not just lacking self esteem? There is a large difference. You have friends so it probably is not shyness, someone somewhere has knocked what you have said about something and it affected you. That is normal, I think most people go through this at some point in life. \n Advice- well just talk, don't even think about it. Say what comes to mind when someone asks you a question. If you don't know the answer please don't be afraid to admit it, this is how you learn in life. I grew up ( I am 48 yrs old now) with the thought that I was stupid and should never open my mouth. Guess what I had an IQ considerably higher than those who said I was stupid. They just had to make themselves feel better by keeping me down.\n Eventually I learned to open my mouth and not care what others thought about my words, and yes I made mistakes, but mistakes can be corrected. Just let it out, you may actually open someone's eyes to a whole new world or concept they never thought of.

Do some self assertion classes, they really help you cope with shyness...;\n\nSteer clear of the alcohol suggestion, you could end up with more problems than just shyness!!!

I hope not, because I am really quiet in person.  When i'm on the computer, more on my personality shows because in person, I get shy and quiet and it is hard to get to know me.  I wish I could change that...

Well you brought it up...so to you it is a "problem". Id bet you have no girlfriend because your shy. Being shy is ok...letting it define you actions is letting it go to far. Make a deal w/yourself (or your shyness). When you want to move forward with somthing (or someone), Like: This is to important to me to pass-up and think about it no further, say hi, ask about THEM and give yourself a pause to take in how that person responds to you. Youll learn and get accustom to haveing nerves...they can turn to stainless steel if you keep learning and refining. As far as the outcome goes...your guess is as good as mine. They only thing you do is conduct yourself. You can start small or you can start BIG...how do you know what those are? The one that sends you  spinning...ThaTs the big one! Take on those and live through the outcome...youll become King. It takes time so pace yourself.
