Shy people, having low self esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. they feel it confirms their inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments because they believe they are unworthy of praise.
Are you a shy people or a bravery people?
Discuss it and became bravery people.

First of all, shyness DOES NOT mean low self esteem!
People are (or appear to be) shy for many reasons. Of course, if you perceive yourself to be shy, then that may mean that you value yourself less than you should ... but if you KNOW (or suspect) that you value yourself less than you should, then you also know your value ... so what are you doubting?
Yes, I know about criticism ... and also about what 'shy' people think of as criticism. It may be a look or something someone said ... what hurts is not what someone else did or said but what YOUR mind told you it meant! Come on, you are better than that! You are YOU and you can give blow for blow and stand tall and be yourself, not what someone else supposes you to be (usually the child that you were).
What is bravery? It's stepping forward and saying 'I'm me and I have to do what I have to do ... sorry, guys 
'
Oh, yeah ... "you are brave!" "You are really cool!" "Hey, I admire you for doing that!" Does that make you blush? Well, it should .... 'Awww, it was nothing' (but it makes you feel good inside and there is NOTHING wrong with that, is there?)
