1. Know yourself
You are the expert on your own life. What one person enjoys may simply not be your cup of tea, so don’t always try to compare yourself with what others around you are doing. Social comparison can be a root cause of anxiety.
Some of us are introverts who enjoy spending time alone and draw energy from quiet time. Others of us are extroverts who enjoy socialising and draw energy from group settings. Know which personality type is most representative of who you truly are, and don’t fear missing out on activities that honestly are not in your nature to enjoy.
