Don't be timid!

Photo Via: A2z Lifestyle 
Hi lovelies,  there's a million times when we've all struggled with shyness or come in contact with someone who is in the throes of timidity. Being timid simply put means "showing a lack of courage or confidence".
Are you a timid person? Timidity sees you getting stuck in your comfort zone and never being able to explore new things that might be turning points for self growth. When you are timid,  you can never get anything done or be outstanding.  Timidity keeps you in one place because you are afraid to face reality. You carry on with your life and choose to exist in your own world forgetting that there's in fact a whole other world filled with possibilities just within your grasp if you'd only dare to break free.
Please get out of that box quick and embrace the person you are meant to be.



EasyLivingDose gives you a few pointers on how you can overcome your big ol' timid and shy self.

Be positive
Having a positive spirit automatically changes your outlook to life. When you start to see things in a positive light, things will begin to appear less daunting. 

Be open minded
It is okay to have sound principles that keep you firmly rooted or grounded.  But it is not okay to let those principles make you an enemy to your own self advancement. Learn to create a balance between values and reality without falling off the wagon.

Be bold


Judge less
When we stop judging ourselves and others, it becomes easier to sit back and enjoy what we do and who we are. Judgement can only bring us pain and alienation from ourselves and others. When judgement is out of the picture,  we are able to get off our asses and try new and exciting adventures that we would ordinarily welcome with a sidon-look attitude.

Participate
Learn to participate.  Giving a selfless service to others in need is one of the easiest ways to come out of ourselves. While you participate,  you will surely strike up conversations with well meaning people and grow your social circle. Join an NGO, an organisation or a group at church, work. Become a volunteer.  Not only will you grow your social circle but you will also gain solid interpersonal skills that will come in handy in the future.

Fear is a false alarm
That fear that has held you captive only exists in your head. Fear is the beginning of failure. Use faith as a weapon against fear, dare to forge ahead and watch great things unfold.

Strike up friendships with outgoing people.
The mistake timid people often make is that they go out of their way to maintain friendships with other timid people in order to feel safe. Ever heard of The Bible verse "iron sharpens iron"?  It's always better to forge friendships with people who we can learn a thing or two from.

Practice self love
Loving yourself is mandatory if you want to succeed at anything in life.  See yourself as the best thing that could have happened to the universe.  When you love yourself, it becomes necessary for you to build on your confidence and get yourself through any door.

Aim to become outstanding
Don't lose yourself.  Rather, use your uniqueness to enhance your growth. Learn to do things for yourself. Be outstanding.  Be phenomenal.  Be
great.

The sad truth is, the timid die young. So if you do desire a long and fulfilled life, make an effort to rise above your timid personality and overcome shyness.
