In this brief personal narrative, the speaker recounts his experience of being extremely shy throughout high school, where peers even sang a cheer about his shyness and mistakenly labeled him as "stuck up." He emphasizes that this perception was unfounded, as he was simply reluctant to engage with strangers. The turning point arrives when he enters college, where he begins to break out of his shell and engage more openly. This newfound confidence enables him to enter a business field and pursue the life he has always wanted, highlighting the transformative power of confronting and overcoming the fear of talking to people.

I was shy. I was shy in high school. The song "He's So Shy," the cheerleaders used to sing it about me. Some people thought I was stuck up. How could I be stuck up? I had nothing to be stuck up about. I wasn't stuck up. If I didn't know you, I wouldn't talk to you. All of a sudden, I go to college. I broke out of my shell a lot in college. Then I get in this business. On the other side of my fear of talking to people is this life I wanted.
