Getting into rooms and conversations you would otherwise skip
Usually hardest for: Extraversion low
Watch it happen. Nobody else has to know.
Do it where it costs you nothing.
The people and rooms that actually matter.
One from each phase, in full. The rest arrive one a day in the app — the first 7 days free.
Keep a running tally today of every moment you could have said something to someone and chose not to — the lift, the queue, the kitchen at work, the neighbor at the door. Do not change anything yet; just count. In the evening, write the final number down.
Greet three people you pass anyway today — the neighbor at the bins, the person at the bus stop, the receptionist, the dog walker. Eye contact, a nod and a clear "good morning" is the whole job. Count them off: one, two, three.
Three times today, with people you actually know — colleagues, neighbors, the regulars at the gym — be the one who speaks first, before they decide whether to. Go one sentence past hello each time: a name, plus a question or a comment on the thing you are both looking at. Count to three; do not stop at one.
Before you start you rate these situations from 1 to 5. After 28 days you rate them again, without ever seeing the first answers. The difference is the whole point of the app.
