Shyness is not a strength

We may at some point or the other have given that sincere excuse when asked why we aren’t doing a number of things: I am shy, I’m an introvert or its not my thing. Followed with a smile, like it’s valid and acceptable. No, it’s not! Being shy is a weakness that can deter us from accessing the things we truly deserve or have even earned in some cases.  

Don’t hide under that shell any longer. Make a decision to push yourself out there today, even when you don’t feel like it. Speak up in that meeting, yes your voice may shake the 1st time and of course your point/input is valid. In consistency lies your power! Raise your hand to take that presentation. Yes, the butterflies will rumble and your hands shaky with the microphone or goosepimples via that teams/zooms call. No worries at all, you prepare and play your part. Own it! 

Say to yourself: I have got this! I can do this!  This isn’t beyond me! Don’t avoid mistakes, it’s all part of the learning. You may miss your lines sometimes, Freestyle (don’t be too uptight, flexibility helps a great deal)😊. Believe in yourself and take that bold step today. You can do it. Nothing is impossible to you! 

Now get it started! I’m rooting for you!!!
