话题: 克服害羞 难度: ★★★ 建议用时: 6'
Shyness is a kind of fear. People who are shy are always worried too much about what people think of them or embarrassing (使……尴尬) themselves in some way in front of others. How can we overcome shyness?
**Have a good posture (姿势)**
The way a person holds himself says a lot about the person. People with sloped (倾斜的) shoulders don't think of themselves as important. So stand up straight, shoulders back, keep your head up, and always make eye contact (接触). By practicing good posture, you will feel you have the ability to do things well.
**Increase your walking speed**
You can tell if a person is confident by the way he walks. People who walk in a slow way, or look at the ground while walking usually have no confidence in themselves. While people who have confidence in themselves walk faster. That is because they have important things to do, friends to meet, places to go, and so on. So walk a little faster, head held up, and look straight ahead.
**Do some exercise**
Exercise increases your energy levels in the body. That will put you in a more positive (积极的) state of mind. By taking exercise, you will feel sure of yourself. It is better to do some exercise than just watch TV all day.
**Do things that make you feel good about yourself**
This can be anything that you really like doing such as going to the theater, listening to music, traveling, helping someone out with a problem, etc.
