[quote=Anonymous]My tips: Do NOT apologize for things that aren't your fault. Some of us are socialized to try and make everything right, and we feel personally responsible if things go wrong that are out of our control. Men do not seem to feel this way. Especially do not apoligize when someone is being rude to you. Do not confuse saying "yes" with being kind. Always be kind if you can. Do not say "yes" to things you do not want to or cannot do. Sometimes it will seem like these two principles overlap, but if you think about a request before responding, you will know the difference. Do not explain why you cannot/will not do something. Just say you cannot do it. If someone asks "why", just say I can't. Be pleasant, but firm. Don't fidget or talk just to fill up silence. Learn to be comfortable with stillness. Take up a physical sport or martial art. It wil give you confidence. [/quote]
