What would you do if you were too shy？ Here are some tips which can help you to get over

shyness.

Get into the habit of smiling — its to your own advantage. When you smile at people， some will return it.

Read and learn about different and interesting topics like events， music， the environment and weather. Then you can start suitable conversations with others. When you do this， youre no longer shy about your ability to keep the conversation going on.

Feel good about yourself. Positive thinking is a good enhancer（强化剂）of personality. Shyness is caused by such negative thoughts that others are far better than you. Stop such thoughts and believe in yourself. Look at yourself in the mirror every morning and say to yourself， “Im a beautiful creation of God！”

Improve your appearance. Being shy can also be a result of not so being confident in front of people. Putting on clean and tidy clothes from top to bottom can help improve your confidence.

Ask for the help of a professional image（形象）enhancer. There are also certain books which help you develop your image and do with shyness. You can turn to these things to get guidance. Enhancing your image is one good way of getting over your shyness. It can build up your selfconfidence in front of anyone.
