Dr. Aziz presents a single, practical confidence-building exercise: regularly offering friendly greetings to strangers in busy public spaces (e.g., streets, malls). He frames this as the single most effective tool from 20 years of study and hundreds/thousands of practice/training instances, emphasizes repeated practice, and encourages viewers to test the method themselves.
After studying confidence for 20 years, if there was one tool, one tip, one way to build confidence that I would share, it is this. And I would suggest it for everybody. And I've used this successfully with hundreds of people face to.
Face, and thousands of people through my training programs and books.
What is it?
It's friendly greetings.
It's where you go to a busy area, you walk down the street where.
There'S a lot of people walking around, or at a mall.
Anywhere in the.
World, and you just say hi to people.
I know it sounds super simple, but there are thousands of lessons that I've heard drawn from this ranging from, wow.
I'm scared to say.
Hi to anybody, or I'm afraid someone's going to hear me having said hi to somebody else, or oh my God, I can't say hi to groups of people, or I can't say hi to a beautiful person. Go do this practice again and again. Trust me, I've done this practice personally thousands of times in my life, and it has radically changed my confidence just by itself. So before you dismiss it, go out and test it. Test it a lot and see what happens and how quickly things can change.
