By Naina S on 3rd April, 2017

A shy person is one who is timid in the company of other people. Whoever has been in the company of friends will notice that there are quite a people who are reserved and do not interact much with others. While we do not advocate everyone to be over zealous in interacting with others, we also do not recommend shyness as the desired quality. It is found that people who are extrovert tend to be popular amongst groups and have an edge with social and professional relationships.

Shyness holds back people as they have a habit to get-outof public situations. This is due to their own individual anxieties. Some also avoid speaking up in public. It is found that at an average almost 40% of people tend to be shy.

If you are one such person, it is suggested to gradually come out of your shyness zone. It will help you become more confident. Extreme cases might need the help of a counsellor while most people can overcome it on their own using a bit of effort.

We enlist a few tips to help you overcome your shyness
