There won't be time to do all of them, but you'll have time to try many of these ideas. Some are more involved than others, but after you implement a few things, it will become easier. Don't be afraid. You can do this. Take it from a shy, nerdy girl, who wanted to be a war correspondent, an astronaut and teacher, you just have to try.
