Whether you go traveling, start a business, change careers or tackle a new project, it doesn’t matter. As long as you’re out of your comfort zone, you will grow. You will NEVER be able to change when you're comfortable.

4. Leave your comfort zone

People will try and encourage you to be more social, which definitely isn’t a bad thing. However, it’s important to remember that introverts derive energy simply from time spent alone. Don’t change who you are in the pursuit of fitting in.

1. Accept who you are 

Introverts will often have very negative body language, which then makes them look more nervous, unconfident, and awkward. Stand tall, push your shoulders pack, and keep your head up. My eBook The Art of Body Language goes into much more detail on this.

6. Change your posture

When you find yourself in a new or uncomfortable setting, take note of the conversation starters and topics that keep interesting conversations flowing. This is a good way to learn more social skills especially if you tend to be observant and introspective.

3. Observe others

It may sound weird but speaking properly isn’t always easy, especially if you’re not used to it. Most people will mumble, stutter or simply speak too fast when they're nervous. This then makes them even more nervous.

5. Speak properly

Most introverts will try extremely hard to fit in and not stand out. They want to blend into the background and not be noticed by others. Do not do this. Otherwise, what’s the point in going out in the first place?

2. Don’t be afraid of standing out 

Seeing this reminded me that I'll never get to where I want to be as an introvert if I keep letting fear control me

Become Confident As Introvert

You don’t need to go over the top, but what you wear can have a large impact on how confident you feel. So pay attention to grooming and dress appropriately for the occasion.

7. Work on your appearance

Confidence like a gift Confidence is like “Show up in every single moment like you’re meant to be there.”
