Twenty seconds of courage.
Pretend you’re full of confidence and lift yourself up. You’re now the most social person ever existed. You can handle any social situation even this one.
Now, do the thing you want to do and do it for at least twenty seconds. Take your time doing it.
Often it turns out it wasn’t that scary or didn’t go as bad as you thought it would and you can continue doing it. If it does, it’s okay, you tried and that counts too. Practice makes perfect. Also know that how others act is not a reflection of your self worth.
Just a gentle reminder to give yourself some love.
Seriously, You got this and we got you.
