weak or easy. Giving others that impression can have a
many consequences.

At times shyness can cause blushing which can also be
a little embarrassing. If you feel embarrassed often, you
might be shy and not know it. If you are so timid that
people walk over you there is a major problem and that
might put your life in danger.
Shyness and being passive
Being shy usually comes with being passive or being
indecisive. If you are passive, your shyness will allow
others to take advantage of you for being so bashful.
Passiveness and indecision will only lead to a life of
discomfort. If your shyness gets to the point that you
start sweating for the slightest things or you wet
yourself (your shirt with all the sweat) you should start
doing something about it.
Positives and negatives about being shy
Shy people usually don't get paid as much because they
don't speak up. Well, there are a few advantages of
being shy: It's easier to get along with others, most shy
people avoid fights or arguments, shy people are
calming to others, being humble is a good thing and
many other things. The disadvantages of being shy are:
people taking you for granted, insecurity, being
ignored, indecision and other things that come when
people aren't heard or understood.
Shy personalities
If you have a shy personality there's no need to force
yourself to be someone you're not but if it's interfering
with your well being or success you can find ways to
change things. First of all make sure to express your
feelings and thoughts clearly to others. There's no good
reason to fear being yourself. Talk to complete
strangers a few times a week and practice being social
even if you're fluttered at first. Eventually you'll come
out of your shell.
Things that cause Shyness:
fear, indecision, insecurity, being a loner, lack of self
confidence, depression, being alone, being too unsocial,
constant indecisiveness, being a coward, psychological
problems, it can also just be a personality trait or fear.
How to over come shyness
1. Make it a point to express what you feel or think at
least once a day with friends or family even though
you're shy, your shyness won't bite. Try to do the same
with a complete stranger 1 a week.
2. When looking at mirrors make to compliment
yourself out loud or in your head. Say things you would
tell someone you love or deeply care about.
3. Understand that you can only be yourself. Know
what you want and try to make up your mind quicker
but stay very precautious. Its always best to be safe
then sorry.
Shyness can be something that you have complete
control over if you know how to take care of yourself
and find courage in the truth. See the links bellow for
further advice.
