Challenge! Stepping out of your comfort zone

Make small talk with the people at the gym. And I will go to a class or more without my friends, by my lonesome self.

As it is, the instructor will come by say hi or bye and other snippets to me and my friends. We just say hi or bye. We're usually in our zone, talking. Oh yeah, my friends have even less interest to socialize than I do. Once, the zumba teacher called us cute. I don't know?

We have our own corner of the class. Back wall. When a song stops, the wall is like a magnet to us. I've noticed it. And it's pretty strange. I feel like we stand out in the class. Like people watch us, why you so unsociable (except within your own group. Cuz my two buddies blabber away.)

The yoga teacher seems like a friendly guy. If I pass a teacher not from the class I'm at, I do the awkward pretend to not look, if seen what to do? So I will say hi! I will be friendly with them. I say thank you after the class sometimes. But now I'll make sure I'm heard and appreciate more somehow, make opening for socializing somehow...

Even with the members from class. I smile at them. Hhmm, how to do this...

Also, my friends aren't crazy about yoga but I like it, so I'll go without them.

A simple example of what gives me an motivation rush is a movie or a good book.Action movies kinda gives me a push.
Also reading some inspirational stories or quotes combinet with practical psyhology is getting me moving out of my confort zone.

I was a very shy guy with girls at high school.For 2 months I've read about seduction,about charisma,personality and just saw one night the movie Hitch.The next day at school there was a very hot girl on the hallway.So I went there and I hug here,then I wispered to her ear:See you around!.
After that I left and after 5 seconds I was smiling because I didnt belive myself what I just done.
