Shyness is very much our own mindset. Make a shift in your mindset and you'll get amazing results..

FOR EXAMPLE:
What if everytime you were in the midst of people you know or complete strangers you took the mindset that "Everyone is living their life as if they're in a coma... I'm going to go talk to them and take them out of their comatosed misery..."

OR

What if you knew that 99% of the people on this planet are so insecure about their own looks that they're not even paying attention to how you look or whatever deficiencies that you perceive in your own appearance... thinking "They're more insecure than I am.. I can go talk to them.."

FINALLY..
Everytime you meet or talk with someone, develop genuine eye-contact... and I guarantee that they'll forget about any physical blemish and come away with an intense appreciation for your presence in the conversation...

Try this immediately with the next 5 people you meet... and let me know how it goes..!
