Summary

Life is getting more complicated for all of us and what can come with this is added pressure and nerves to perform well and live up to these expectations.  The more we learn about communicating with people and learning to not judge people, can sometimes negatively affect us if we struggle with social situations. It can leave us in a place of second-guessing what we should or shouldn't say and add to our existing nerves and worries. Finding new ways to think about being around people can help with those insecurities and not only help our anxiety levels but also help build our confidence. Often with worries of what we should or shouldn't say and social anxiety, the biggest issue is not really about us not knowing what we should do, it's more about the worry that we will get it wrong. This being the case it is important for us to acknowledge this and start to focus on ways to help us change what we can change and let go of what we can't.
