i agree to both accept yourself as a quiet person and practice. try starting a conversation with one person a day. maybe consider joining some kind of group or club in your area that pertains to something you are interested in, then you can talk to new people about things you love to talk about. Also consider joining Toastmasters in your area, you will meet many others who are also shy and want to learn new skills for talking to others. I did, and it definitely helps build your confidence!
