I used to be super shy, like would not even order my own food at a restaurant shy. Most people think I just grew out of it or got over it. The truth is though that I have to WORK AT IT, every single day.
I like doing things with people and having friends, but the process of meeting new people is like torture for me. I have learned that despite that sinking feeling I get in the pit of my stomach when I sign up for an event or class or even accept a date, I need to push myself to step outside my comfort zone so that I don't miss out on the activities I want to do!
I am challenging myself to do new things every single day this year, but I'm about to up the ante and challenge myself to meet new people every single week by attending or hosting some sort of activity/event.
Yesterday was the first step. I joined a Women's Midweek Midday Hiking Group on MeetUp and went for a hike in Half Moon Bay. I had a GREAT time!!
What is something YOU need to work at every single day whether people realize it or not??
