A new blog for me, by: fallen angel, has a post about how dancing can help overcome shyness. This is a great idea. I can certainly recall how much I enjoyed learning to dance, though I cannot say that i did it to overcome my shyness
If you are a shy, introverted person, why not try dancing lessons? It seems a great idea not only to meet people, make friends but also to have a fun time. Maybe too it will help you overcome your shyness, it might even go as far as to make you the admiration of your friends as they watch you dance and wish they could do so too.
We all know that shyness can be a barrier to success and opportunities in life so this seems like a great way to help overcome this barrier. You can learn a new skill, impress people and gain confidence at the same time. What have you got to lose?
Yes, I can just imagine people sitting reading this thinking to themselves, I’m no good at dancing. That’s not the point, you are going to lessons, nobody there will be good at dancing. Sure some may be a little better than others and some may learn quicker than others but that just gives you opprtunities to praise or congratulate them!
Don’t forget, success on the dance floor may well lead to success in other areas of life, such as romance or business.

There may come times when each of us feels a lack of confidence in ourselves, our abilities or our skills. Many would argue that this is only natural but there are times when it can become so extreme that a lack of self confidence can seriously hold you back and prevent you from getting the most out of life.
It is at times like these, and for some people those times may even seem never-ending, that you need to find ways of boosting your self confidence.
Over on the zen habits website blog, you will find a really informative article that presents no fewer than 25 ways in which you can boost your self confidence.
Some of these tips are really simple and fairly easy, such as dressing nicely and grooming yourself well. Others might be a bit more difficult and take time to master, such as stopping negative thinking and replacing negative thinking with positive thinking. Others may seem quite daunting, like photoshopping yourself, this will help you see your image as others see you and it can also be a useful tool to help you change your image.
All the 25 tips are quite simple and straight forward, doing any one of them is almost certain to lead to improvement, doing more is likely to bring only positive benefit and doing all of them … well give it a go and see how your confidence improves.
As an alternative, for those of you who find 25 tips too daunting, there is another excellent article on confidence at the Pick the Brain website. This gives 10 tips for boosting your self confidence and again, each tip is well worth trying.
