Q: I find it hard to communicate with other people in social situations?

A: Once we find the courage to accept how we feel and try not to put too much importance on how we come across, it’s easier to connect to what other people are saying. We become less concerned about our feeling, which gives us more time to be interested in the situation we are in and we start to become more involved in the present.
