HI, I'M DAN :-)
I'M NATURALLY SHY
If you're shy I know how you feel.
I grew up as one of those "naturally shy" kids. Every year during those parent-teacher meetings I would hear the same thing: "Daniel needs to speak up."
I was actually fine with it until 9 years ago...
LET'S REWIND TO 2007
So I graduated college and got my first job (yay!)
That's when all of my social skills, or lack thereof, became quite apparent. I had to talk to new people every day...
And I was TERRIBLE at it! Guess what my boss told me?
"...Daniel needs to speak up."
It was like 6th grade all over again. After years of hiding, I was fed up. I realized I need to figure this out.
Here's why: This was hurting my success in a huge way.
I STARTED STUDYING SOCIAL SKILLS
Like the good INFJ that I am, I started researching. I committed myself to learning it. I read books and observed "naturals" like my boss.
Like any other skill, I practiced and improved.
After 9 years of hard work, I am proud to say I can start talking with anyone without feeling nervous or intimidated, and have a pleasant, easy-going conversation, and actually enjoy it :-)
I've been able to meet tons of new friends and even improve my performance at work.

The reason I started this site is because I want to help you.
If you ever...
- Feel nervous/awkward/self-conscious around new people
- Run out of things to say and are afraid of boring others
- Feel misunderstood around others
- Missed opportunities in life because of shyness
...I can help.
Listen, I'm just a regular guy. I'm not special. I'm not talented. I'm just obsessed with learning this stuff.
I want to free you from fear and awkwardness.
And this isn't your typical advice like "smile", "be confident" or "think positive."
