What is shyness?
Shyness is obviously fear of unpleasant feelings disguised by minds under certain circumstances.
It generally occurs due to lack of confidence.when you feel shy , you are indirectly allowing the people to behave as they wanted on you. Shyness does no benefit for u,but instead it your opportunities and cultivates other harmful personal qualities.
There's a simple technique to overcome this.It just manners the way you take it.
Replace this "others may laugh or make fun of me if i talk like this" by "even if someone feels there's something funny in my attempts to get acquainted, so what?"
It may somehow sound difficult for you .But in spite of internal resistance in you , if you can still act contrary with your shyness, you would experience two pleasant feelings in you.
First one is relief and the other is consciousness of controlling yourself.
