Shyness is a kind of fear. People who are shy always worry too much about what people think of them or embarrassing themselves in some way in front of others. How can we overcome shyness?

◆Have a good posture（姿势）

The way a person holds themselves says a lot about that person. People with sloped（倾斜的）shoulders don’t think of themselves as important. So stand up straight, shoulders back, keep your head up, and always make eyes contact（接触）. By practicing a good posture, you will feel you have the ability to do things well.

◆Increase your walking speed

You can tell if a person is confident by the way he walks. People who walk in a slow way, and looking at the ground while walking usually have no confidence in themselves.

That is because they have important things to do, friends to meet, places to go etc. So walk a little faster, head held up, and look straight ahead.

◆Do some exercise

Exercise increases your energy in the body. That will put you in a more positive（积极的）state of mind. By having exercise, you will feel sure of yourself. Think about it; it is better to do some exercise than just looking at TV all day.

Today, most people are busy and have no time to enjoy life. Actually, your life can be enjoyable if you take a little stop and check your routine tasks(日常工作). Then you will find it's actually easy to make some good changes in life .

For example, waking up early gives you enough time to exercise, have your breakfast peacefully, read your book, and then get on with the rest of your day. You can also use morning time to plan the day. While planning the day, you can begin by writing down the tasks(任务) you need to finish in a day, and then decide which tasks are important enough for you to finish first .

Well, taking a bus, a subway or a train doesn't seem a good way to save time. However, by taking these, you' ll get the time to read books, listen to music and so on. As a result, you'll save time .

If you love playing with your mobile phone, you waste so much time doing nothing helpful. You need to spend your time on something meaningful, like painting something, or reading a great book. Also Internet surfing(上网), these days, is one of the top time-wasting activities around. So cutting down the time you spend on the Internet is one way to save time for yourself.

When you don't have enough time to look after yourself, you will probably have bad health. A busy lifestyle should be the reason for you to treat yourself with great care and make more time for yourself.
