You're shy because you don't have money.

Hi Guys!

"Do you have any advice for someone who is shy and uncomfortable when it comes to networking?"

Kindly share your advice in the comment section

Thank you

I'm actually shy though I prefer using Reserved.

When it comes to making friends with both sexes cause I think I'm weird(don't like talking too much) but when it comes to networking about my career or something that can make me move forward, I am always very hyper and I am doing really well in that aspect cause I have great mentors who are a blessing to me.

My advice is, when you've the full conviction you want to succeed and you know that success depends on your networking skills, the adrenaline will pop out from no where.

Just have that inner huge and conviction to Excel.

Lol ask the person this question: you found yourself in an unknown land and you're down with diarrhoea and you need to use the toilet badly —would you rather poo on your body or ask total strangers for help as regards letting you use their toilet?


Being shy is simply you thinking so highly of yourself — trust me no one cares. Just go for what you want it's either the person will be interested in you or not.

If being shy creates discomfort the solution is to stop being shy to get comfortable.

And what can make a grown ass person shy if he/she is not involved in something that is socially and morally unacceptable by the generality of society?

She said "shy", not "Ashamed". They are two different things.
The bolded statement above best describes the latter ( Ashamed) and that is not what the Op is on about or meant in the context of her statement.

She's talking about her lack of confidence.

Read self help books. Start with "Subtle art of not giving a f***" by Mark Manson.


This is a very good book. If not one of the best books I read in 2018. The truth is, being shy is you worried about what actually might never happen.

Self discovery matters and don’t force yourself to do what you don’t like.

I don’t like to network and I don’t even force it , what i did was that i built myself to be a force people can reckon with, so instead of me going after people... they’re they one coming to me.

Build yourself

In the real sense of it, most of the shy people have low self esteem. Such fellow need to believe in himself and try to associate with networkers as well. And don't forget, networking will make you loose your social value and respect temporarily grin grin grin shocked

Shy... Once upon a time...

The only way to beat shyness is to interact. It worked for me


I can't swim, your advise is to jump in the ocean... does that make sense

You better desist from the disease called shyness, if you want to make it in life put shyness aside, some of the billionaires you see today, assuming they were shy they wouldn't have gotten to where they are today, shyness wouldn't take you anywhere, so work on yourself from today, good luck!
Honestly shyness has deprived me of many things. Even with my talent, I am always procrastinating waiting for the right time that might never come! Can’t even talk to girls. God help me, I need to move out of my comfort zone

As a music artists, focus on your music and be exceptionally good, your talent will do the talking.

Instead of you walking up to people to introduce themselves to you, they will be the one coming to you and doing “hey, i love what you did with that”
