I tend to be quiet and often avoid meeting new people. Now I know my problem, I want to change it, I have an idea of the underlying cause (childhood abandonment issues) but still I cannot overcome my feelings when in real life.
So, and Ideas on how to change this?Why is it hard to change our behavior despite despite acknowledging and understanding the problem?Think positive and positive things will happen to you !Why is it hard to change our behavior despite despite acknowledging and understanding the problem?Start small. Find easy situations such as making eye contact and saying hello to the cashier at a grocery store. But the best thing is that you don't have to get rid of the feelings, in fact you probably never will. You learn to live with them. You feel the feeling, and you do it anyway. There is no wrong way to proceed. And don't beat yourself up for how it turns out as you progress because this is a process, not an event. Last, repeat this sentence 100 times a day for the next month, %26quot;I can move past my old worn out feelings that no longer serve me and it feels good to meet new people%26quot;.
