CRACK UP THE RESERVED NUTTIES

CRACK UP THE RESERVED NUTTIES!

Author: ISHWARYA J.

You don’t have to get offended by the thoughts that keep triggering you about yourself as an ‘’INTROVERT” because unknowingly, you’re fighting with yourself way better than the others who call themselves as “EXTROVERTS”.

DON’T BELIEVE THIS? THEN, GO AHEAD AND FIGURE IT OUT! AS TO “HOW?”

It’s a strong misconception that people who are taken over by reserved nature lack confidence and the courage to face the crowd because of which they are prone to face more of criticism and discouragement. But, it’s not their lack of capabilities for stepping back from situations, it’s the fear deep inside them which leads them to so many unanswerable questions like what are the others going to think of me? Am I capable of doing it? I guess I’m imperfect in every way! Am I fit only for letting down myself? ; Such kinds of questions pave way for the origination of fear within them and would give them a feeling of “LOW”.

HOW DO YOU CRACK THAT SHELL OF SELF COMFORT?

Step 1:  Self-analysis; be really true and frank to yourself and just jot down all the skills that you have, more specifically taken your emotions and feelings into consideration. It’s better if you really don’t take up the online surveys as most of them lead you to the wrong track.

Step 2: Rehearsal; after you’re done with your assets, emotions and feelings go ahead and focus on your communicative skills and this could be done in either of the ways

One: Start looking for topics that you could really talk about and before you start jotting down the points to talk about a topic, make use of the sources readily available like YouTube where you could watch a lot of videos and try improving your communication skills.

Two: spend two minutes in front of the mirror and talk continuously about a minute without interruptions, initially you feel it to be dumb but it works!

Step 3: Mingling up: Most of the introverts face the basic trouble in taking to their fellow mates and mingling up with them, they fail in taking up the initiation to start a conversation so to overcome this let a simple thought to run on your mind; that all of them are not going to be a considerable factor in your life at some point of time they would be having their priorities so now by considering their  thoughts if you ruin the time you have  you’re not getting benefited through it at all.

Step 4 : Grab the opportunities; In case you come across any events that would be conducted in your college or school then stepping back from participating in them or taking them for granted would be a really bad decision that you could ever take because it is practical experience and reality that counts and makes you know better about yourself .It doesn’t really matter how well are you able to get through the event as long as you just sit over there and observe what’s going on ; do not call it dumb because observations really make a difference in case you are an introvert.

Ultimately, you could try out all the possible contributions and see for yourself the way you could defeat that introvert in you ! Take the challenge!!
