How often have you found
yourself trembling, heart pounding,
legs weak, cheeks on fire, when
facing a colleague or your boss, a
teacher or a traffic cop, or
simply a person of the opposite sex?
Shyness can be paralyzing at any
age. It causes bizarre anxieties,
nightmares, indigestion and,
when the occasion to be strong and affirmative
has passed, infinite regrets.
Do you think you’re beyond hope?
If you do, you’re wrong. Shyness
can be treated. You might not
be aware that most psychologists
who have published works on the
subject, were at one time very
shy themselves. Who is more likely to
be interested in shyness, and
write hundreds of pages about it, than a
person who is shy!
Those who have never suffered
from shyness are incapable of
understanding to what point it
can ruin our lives and make us unhappy.
