Extraverts are bolder than average because they believe events will turn out well. Techniques that can help you to boost your optimism are:
The best possible self intervention: For 5 - 15 minutes, picture yourself in the future in a scenario where everything in life has gone as well as you wanted. Do this daily for about two weeks to gain maximum benefit.
Practise cognitive reappraisal. Try to reinterpret the feelings of anxiety or nerves as excitement.
Build strength through physical fitness to increase your confidence.
