Shyness

We often choose to stay timid because we don't want to disturb people.

If you are a receptionist receiving a warm “thank you” from a visitor who is leaving your office, do you feel disturbed or invigorated?

If you are waiting for a lift and a passerby, who is joining you, gives you a compliment, do you feel disturbed or appreciated?

Never shy away from carrying out tasks with positive intentions.
