Just Say Hi!!
You’re shy, you’re overwhelmed on how to get started, you’re afraid of running out of things to say, you’re afraid of getting rejected… Just say hi!! That’s where it all can start, with that simple utterance. In the beginning, just worry about getting used to saying “hi” all over the place. When you’re comfortable with that, add onto it and make that your new normal. When you’re comfortable with that, add onto it. Repeat. Imagine your new baseline (new normal) after doing a bunch of mini interactions for awhile. Then imagine what you’ll be like for doing it longer! Baby steps. Get exposure with baby steps.

Just Say Hi!!
Lower the Stakes!
When you lower the importance of an interaction, a speech, a competition, for example, you will naturally relax. When you relax, social freedom takes over! Humor, openness… all the good stuff!

I've Lived With the Fear Too Long
It took me 18 years to finally look my fear of rejection in the face and deal with it! You are right on the edge, right now. You'll never be the same🔥

It’s wild how many other things positively changed from this. A lot more letting go. Definitely a lot more letting go with dating!😜
Find Your Flow!
One of the keys to being unstoppable socially is being in your flow. How do you get there? It usually happens AFTER the first or second conversation (or exchange) with someone new. Honestly, the first or second “approach” of the day are the hardest. After that, flow and momentum starts to take over. Plow through the first couple and then: Ride that wave!

It’s true almost every time. Even when you’re tired and you don’t feel like going out!
Rate Your Confidence
Where do you think your social confidence is at between 1 and 10?

And a 9 while I’m at home thinking about being social! Funny how that goes.

Last night was an 8 at a bar and grill. Especially after I got the ball rolling and got in the flow from talking to a big group.
