Improve my social skills

I hope to improve as well! I’ve started getting eye contact down! A little step by step and I’ll make it!

I have come so far in the last 2 years…its truly something I am very proud of myself for doing. I feel more confident in myself which is the key to making this goal a reality. Keep practicing!!

stumble over my words today!

I had to talk with somebody about something important.
Sorry this is so vague.

But I clearly said what I needed to say.
And I didn’t sound like a fool!

Yay Progress!

of practice today!

A little bit of progress too!

I smiled & said Hello to a stranger today!

I know it’s something small, but it is something I truly have to work hard at.

Practice, practice, practice!
Yay me!

I don’t see how I’m ever going to improve this one, the minute I go out I’m shying away, it doesnt matter if its in a club or in the street its the same old thing. When around friends I even go shy and all weird once other random people are around/walking past.

I tried to be social today!

Sometimes it comes a little bit more easily!
Other times it seems like too much of an effort.
Or certain people just make me feel awkward.

Anyways, I made lots of small talk!
So a little bit of progress! Yay!
It still counts!

I am Happy with myself!
I stepped out of my comfort zone!

I said Hello! to a stranger today!

And I was still pretty shy about it.
But I am proud that I did it anyways! Yay me!

I will try to do this more often!

and influence people’ arrived yesterday. I’d forgotten that I even ordered it! I was a bit sceptical about it, but last night I read the first part and quite enjoyed it. So far, I didn’t learn anything I didn’t already know, but it’s stuff that, although I know about it, I still don’t practice. The main thing being, never ever criticise people, give lots of compliments and make people feel good about themselves. Kind of obvious, but oh so hard…
I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the book. There’s a lot of information in it and lots of good examples, so it would probably be beneficial to read it a couple of times, or highlight the most important bits at least.

I avoided all telephone calls.
I just didn’t feel like talking on the phone with anyone.
I don’t think that it’s terrible or anything.

Sometimes I just want time just for ME!

Yes, for me happy = sociable. When I am happy my social skills skyrocket. When I am depressed and don’t want to do anything and just want everyone to leave me alone, my social skills plummet.

Seeing as I have been very happy lately, I’m going to mark this as done.
