It costs nothing but you have to do one thing that's going to take you out of your comfort zone. See this? Your cell phone. I want you to leave it at home one day a week or at least one evening a week. Actually go out to the world and don't have this as a default. When you don't have a cell phone to look at, you can actually look at people. You might have to ask for directions because you don't have your GPS on at all times. You might have to ask time it is because you don't have your phone. Instead of looking at it as something the dread oh no, this is awful. Look at it as an opportunity. You can build your conversational skills and have more fun in life.
