HOW TO AVOID SHYNESS AND BECOME SELF CONFIDENT?

First thing necessary is to understand why one feels shy?

It is something like being camera conscious. One has the dominating feeling that people are looking at me,what they will comment,am doing it right? And so on.

See the flowers above. They are fully bloomed and there is no shyness. Least bothered about the surroundings.

One must realize that people have no time to waste on us unless their some or the other purpose is served. Therefore one should not bother too much about others' opinion and comments.

The feeling of hesitation has origin at lack of confidence.

One is not sure whether one is doing right or wrong, ethical or unethical, moral or amoral and so on. And hence hesitation and shyness, feeling of awkwardness etc.

For overcoming this feeling of shyness one has to build self confidence.

For this one has to understand the significance of values in life and the important role they play in one's life such as freedom,peace, love, compassion,mercy, pity and so on .

This process enables one to discrete between the polarities in life values like truth and untruth, right and wrong, justice and injustice, ethical and unethical,right and wrong,and having ability to discrete, one is able to make right choices in the process of decision making in life and will accept full responsibility of the consequences of one's own decision making in life.

Thus,one will be full of confidence in the social activities and there will not be any trace of shyness in one's behavior.
