Shyness

Shyness doesn't help anyone specially the person who is shy.

You should learn how to open you mouth and say 'hi' or 'how is your day'. It doesn't matter if they respond to you or not.
You will never know what you could have done for someone if you don't open your mouth and say something.
You won't know how you could have helped someone else if you don't open your mouth and say something.
You won't know how some one's life can change including your own if you don't say anything.

What is the worse that could have happen to you, the person says no. The person doesn't talk to you. Oh well, that is there problem not yours. You did everything you could. You said something and some times that is all it takes.

When you make an effort to do something doesn't matter if you just say hi or ask them how their day was or if you ask them if they need help. Just being there and asking the question can change some one's life. Just being a listening ear can help someone out so much.

Trust me on this, this is from someone who fights shyness all the time. There are times where I am out going and say hi to everyone and there are times where I don't say a word at all. It is all about over coming fears and not worrying about what others think of you.
