Free Yourself Socially
What is social liberty?
If you’re looking for the ability to meet new people, make new friends, talk to virtually anyone, and say what’s on your mind without having to worry about getting dirty looks, then what you’re really looking for is “social liberty.”
We all know that feeling of when you say something wrong in a group of people and everyone stops and just looks at you. As you look around at everyone’s reactions to what just came out of your mouth, you can almost feel yourself shrink away… and everything you say after that becomes tainted by the huge blunder you’ve just made.
The people in the group can actually sense this happening inside of you by your body language. It happens involuntarily. You start to sweat, your eyes dart around and it’s all over.
Make it one of your goals to be socially free. Strive to attain social liberty.
Sometimes with my friends, I’ll say something completely off the wall, and it totally flops. Nobody laughs, and everyone gives me this weird look. Then, I’ll say something like, “wow, that sounded normal until I actually said it,” or “I love when I think things are funnier than everyone else does,” and they end up laughing anyways. No sweat.
Even if you end up making what you think is a gigantic, unforgiving blunder, just realize that it’s not that big of a deal. Turn it into something amusing. Confidence will come from being able to handle this kind of situation.
Social liberty is freedom from the criticism of others. It’s the freedom you get when you’re not afraid to express yourself. It’s the freedom to enjoy social situations with confidence and stability.
Many people lack social liberty. It’s probably one of the reasons you’re reading this. When you don’t have it, every social interaction is weighed down. Every time you talk to someone, there’s a nagging feeling there that keeps pushing you down and holding you back. You’re always on the alert, waiting for that moment of failure.
It’s hard to put your finger on it, but you probably know exactly what I’m talking about.
Have you ever seen someone who coasts through life with social ease? They always seem to have friends and every interaction they have goes smoothly and seems effortless?
They might even be described as “popular.”
That person has social liberty. They’re free and it seems like they can do anything they want, yet they’re always accepted and always have friends.
With this freedom comes another great bonus—the freedom to NOT need more people in your life, and to be completely indifferent. This includes the freedom to not care whether you completely bomb a social interaction, or completely kick butt. Either way, you feel fine. You keep going and you keep making things happen for yourself.
It might sound like some sort of unattainable goal at first. But I guarantee that if you keep it up and you’ll get there eventually.
You probably have an image in your head of what it would be like to know more people, make friends, and be more social. If so, in some way or another I’m willing to bet this is part of that image.
So, to start things off, I want you to think about freeing yourself. Make it one of your goals to be socially free. Strive to attain social liberty.
The benefits of social liberty may seem obvious, but in case they don’t, here’s what’s in store for you:
- You can tell stories about your life, no matter how embarrassing they may seem to you
- You can be yourself in conversations and not pretend to be something you’re not
- You can say “stupid” things and recover from them easily
- Even if you totally mess up, it won’t matter. It actually might become a funny story to tell later.
- You can laugh and enjoy the company of other people.
- You’ll stop taking things personally
- You’ll feel indifferent to the outcome of social interactions
- You won’t feel pressure around others
- You won’t get that nagging “I’m being judged” feeling
- You won’t feel like failure is lurking around the corner
- You’ll actually be more creative in conversations!
