I’ve spent most of my life shy and reserved around others.
Kidding myself into thinking that that was my ‘personality’ and that’s that.
I’ve since learned this is nonsense.
What if ‘introversion’ was a myth?
I have been shy, but it doesn’t mean I AM shy.
I can make the first move. I can create opportunities.
I can extrovert when it is required and build the life of my dreams. So can you.
It’s not about personality. It’s about timing.
It’s about practice.
I realised this long ago, and so I changed.
I made the first move. Over and over again. And my life has changed.
So make the first move.
The world is moving on, regardless of your problems; your stresses; your fears; your hang-ups and your regrets.
Get over yourself. You must act to see opportunities and things HAPPENING.
No one is coming to save you.
It’s down to you now.
Get into the habit of making the first move.
Even the small things. It’s a muscle to be honed.
It’s nothing to do with how you are. It’s not about who you are. It’s about what you do, with courage.
Talk to that person in the elevator.
Smile at people who walk past.
Reconnect with that friend who won’t contact you.
Reach out to people you want to work with, and be hungry.
Surprise people with your give-a-shit attitude. Because you do. You’re alive!
Aloofness is old news.
You must act.
The world gets out of your way when you do.
