Did you know that just by writing a goal down, you become 42% more likely to reach that goal?
Challenge: Write down one small step you could take in your next social interaction. It should be something that feels exciting, not terrifying.
Check the comments below for inspiration. If someone writes something you like, let them know in the comments that they have your support.
I will try to be more open and articulate. I will focus on myself more.
I would like to be able to go into college and not have worry to about people judging me
I’ll take my time when speaking to people and try not to rush
I’ll also take on the mindset that no one cares how I eat so I’ll be less self conscious
I’ll try not to think about being judged by other people and will pay more attention to what others are saying so that I can respond in a better way.
I will pick a place, time and day and invite a potential friend to join me
I will get know the people I’m working with today.
I like your goal. Learning just 1 more thing about a coworker will strengthen your relationship. Wishing you luck 🙂
I’m gonna be more interactive with people I want around me
I will try some small words-exchange with retailers at grocery stores, bars, etc.
I will start engaging, ie. Saying good morning when ordering my coffee.
I will be calmer, and more concise with my wording. I will be using fewer parasite words. I will strike up a conversation first. I won’t any longer consider myself bad. I’ll walk in with the “people will like me 100% of the time” mindset.
I will relax more in a conversation, even of I think I said the wrong thing
I will smile more and try to have more open body language when I want to talk
I will meet one or more new people every day and initiate and deepen the conversation until I can make them aware of who I am and that I think about them in a way that I want to hang out with them for the rest of my life.
I will relax and slow down my speaking in conversations.
I will relax more in conversations and be aware that I have more time than I think I do to be genuinely interested in what people are saying.
Craig that goal seems like a perfect step 1 for me too.
I will maintain eye contact for longer than I used to and will not end the conversation in small talks.
I’ll be more relaxed and ask personal questions when I get the chance
No more holding back, What’s the worst that can happen
Ditto
I will branch my conversations
i will ask more personal questions, i will tell more about myself.
Ditto. Love myself a bit more, day by day.
Speak up when something
makes me unconfortable.
I am going to do the same thing too
A year by now, i will be organizing my own events and meeting great people.
Never let the fear of being judged by other ppl, control me.
The most important thing for me is to be myself while I am socializing like I am alone in this world, no one judges me, nothing wrong with me, I am enough and deserve everything good just like other people, I am not less than anyone.
The clue to being comfortable and enjoying socializing is confidence.
To be able to speak your mind freely, listen to others’ opinions, and enjoy the conversations, not keep disappointing yourself with ideas like how this person is smarter, funnier, or more successful than me.
That’s a nice goal Dr, l like it. We just need to keep reminding ourselves that we can’t be liked by everyone. The most important thing l think is necessary is to keep improving on ourselves and in the areas we are not very good at
Just to be more confident in my own skin.
I will start to have conversations that are fun & focus on the possibilities of life & what people want to do/could imagine
I will learn how to tell happy & positive stories
I’d like to talk to more people even if I don’t know them at all. With a conversation that matters, not only small talk
I will be more confident and less anxious the next time I deliver a presentation.
same
I would like to believe that I actually AM enough, rather than constantly fearing that I’ll be ‘rumbled’ and people will see that I’m not smart. I want to believe that my authentic self is great!
I want to be able to hold eye contact a few seconds longer. And also to smile without feeling awkward. I want to be myself in the presence of others without feeling terrified
I would like to be more confident at work. I would also like to be able to have uncomfortable conversations when I have to deal with conflict.
I’d like to be more confident especially at work and stop doubting about myself if i can make it or not.
