August 22nd 2007
Here is a great tip to help you overcome shyness (and you get fit at the same time, how’s that for a bonus). We all know the many health benefits that exercise brings but exercise also has benefits for the mind such as:
- 1. Reduces Stress.
- 2. Helps clear you mind.
- 3. Helps give you a more positive outlook.
- 4. Increased confidence.
- 5. Success breeds success. (exercise success can spill over to other elements of your life)
- 6. Helps you sleep better.
- 7. Gives you many opportunities to meet new people. (and gives you common ground to start a conversation)
It doesn’t matter which type of exercise you choose. Just the act of getting up and exercising gives you the feeling of accomplishment. This really contributes to a feeling of ‘I did it’ and from this you get an increased in confidence. And all this from some exercise!

I just sowed up to say hi!

Hi Alex
Age has certainly helpped me too. It’s all about slowly extending your confort zone, new experiences, and age is perfect for that.
