When I learn something beneficial in life, I want to tell it to everyone so that they can do the same. Where you are, what you have, what you will become is as a direct result of what you choose to think. Change your T.
I don’t know why I am writing this. But I have realised Facebook is kind of controlling my life. Facebook like everything else, it is very good, if utilised properly, but if used wrongly, it will screw your life.
Think of using a kitchen knife to cut yourself instead of the onion. Similarly, careless use of Face book will mess your life.
Here is how to make Face book your servant.
1. Login to Facebook at specific times. Set clear times when to login to Facebook. Let say when you are extremely tired and you cannot do anything else. During lunch break or after work would be the best times.
2. Action to friends’ statuses immediately. If you feel a status of your friend warrants response, respond immediately. Avoid reading and re-reading all the statuses to respond.
3. Do not take all facebook comments seriously. Avoid losing sleep discussing how your friend/s responded badly to your status. Imagine if I changed my relationship status to single today. This one will keep tongues waging. I could have been joking or just playing around.
4. Avoid Facebooking in office. To increase your productivity avoid Facebook in the office. I am sure your boss never sends any important communication through Facebook. See point No. 1 above.
5. Treat Facebook to what it is. Facebook should not be used as a substitute to normal person-person interaction. We are humans. Personal touch is essential. If you are shy, acknowledge it. Shyness is a disease and should be tackled.
6. To-do list is important than Facebook. You earn your living for working on your job. Prioritise company tasks over Facebook statuses.
7. Switch off. If you access Facebook through the phone, switch it off until you finish the task at hand. If possible restrain from Facebooking while in bed, in class, at dinner time, during breakfast or in a meeting.

@Josylene. I am not a Psychologist by profession but I know few tips to overcome shyness. In addition, I will give you links to help you. My tips: 1. Understand why you feel shy. 2. First learn to like yourself with all your weaknesses and strengths. 3. If you feel shy while in big crowd, start interracting with a group of friends. Make sure you can express yourself with words. Don't assume they know what you think or what you want to say 4. Do what you fear most-feel the fear but do it anyway. 5. I you are criticised, acknowlwdge the criticism, its not you who is criticised, its a character in you. If its a valid criticism,correct that character or behaviour but never avoid those who criticise you. 6. Put efforts in overcoming shyness rather than surrendering to fate.Below are links that can offer more help.
