Practice speaking in front of people. First, gather a few people, and each day, add another person to the group to speak to.

be confident in your thoughts and what you believe in. also, actions speak louder than words! rather than asking to do something, think "can i do this myself?" itll get better with time.

Speak up in front of people and don't be scared of what other people think. Its not as important as your own opinion..

I'm pretty quiet too. What helps me is finding other shy people to talk to so I don't get overwhelmed.

I personally just like talking to other quiet people since I'm quiet but I guess it depends on the person

you should practice it. start with new people because they don't know you and you can pretend you're an outgoing person.

make more friends, but when making new friends be yourself. Over time you will be less shy around them. The more friends you have the less shy you will be
