Shyness is a very common and great problem. It can be a great hindrance in the normal course of one's life. Shyness means that you get embarrassed when spotlights focus on you. Shyness is not a new notion but is slightly misunderstood. Every person might have felt ambivalent or self-conscious while being in new social encounters. But still, some people fail to understand the concept of shyness. More often than not it is misinterpreted by society. A youth who is shy is mostly perceived as less confident, weird, rude, and dumb by the others. Some may even think he/she has autism or no friends at all. Even normal youth, who become slightly uncomfortable while facing a new situation, can be considered shy by others when in reality they might be not. So, shyness is an emotion which is little understood and cannot be perceived in a correct way. However, here I am initiating some formulas about how to overcome extreme Shyness.
At first, you have to find out the root of your shyness. Think deeply about the main point for which you are very shy and feared in hesitation. Shyness may be rooted in one's personality. So, accept your personality with frankness and get engaged in overcoming it.
Do not be afraid to accept your shyness. Everyone is not same. You are shy and you know it. So, do not over think about it. Do not hide yourself because of your shyness. This is not a problem rather if you do not work to overcome, it is a problem.
Anxiety is a very harmful thing which impedes you to expose yourself. It is a part of undergoing shyness. When you feel nervous in front of an audience, do not be so afraid. Take a breath and control yourself. Overtake your anxiety.
Many of us are very shy because of having very hesitance in doing works. Although one has much capability to act, one can not complete it smoothly because of his unconfident thinking. As a result, we see, lack of confidence kills our courage and makes us failure. So, if you really want to know how to overcoming shyness, before acting make yourself confident.
You are a very worthy and an important part of the world. Negative feeling about yourself never gives you the advantages to accomplish your performances subtly. Rather, remind yourself that you are an eligible and awesome person. It will support you to overcome your vain shyness.
A good self-image of you makes you easier to overcome your shyness. You could not make others impressed to you, even you have good qualities and Excellencies, if you have not a good attitude in talking, dealing, looking and smiling.  Make eye contact and keep your tongue flowing when talking to someone. Catch other with your posture. This quality will make you cute and impressive.
Engaging in new works and talking to others are not easy task. One is to acquire this attribute. Engaging in new works will teach you the new ways to act and will make you experienced and perfect. Talk to others. Tell jokes and stories. Give presentation. These will make you sharp, keen, fluent and intelligent. These are obviously very required things to stop being shy and quiet.
Every man is ingenious and talented. Do not think what compliments given to you by others. Throw out every compliment and pick up new projects. If you fear about the compliments of others, and fear of being judged by criticism, you will never be successful in overcoming shyness. Do not hesitate rather let other judge you and your projects. By doing new things and practicing different acts you can overcome your fear and shyness.
Wake up from inactiveness, be self-aware. Disclose your all indolent thoughts, feelings, memories and sensations to others. There is no way to avoid your genius. Rather you are the revealer of yourself. If you arise yourself to others, you will get several opportunities. Utilize every opportunity. It will help you to overcome shyness.
As shyness is an obstruction, it never carries any benefaction. More, it hampers to expose you. So, if you are shy, follow these noted formulas. And stop being shy and quiet rather be opened and silver-tongued.
