You're over thinking every encounter.

Just smile and say "hi there...how's it going". I've found that's the perfect ice breaker and if you put your right hand out and are willing to shake with this new person...life is good.

Keep it simple. Keep smiling. When you're right there "one on one" just smile and listen. It has done wonders for me in every venue and walk of life I've been thrown into. If you keep it this simple...you'll be blown away how nice it becomes past this first step.

I've even said, "Geez these meetings are harder than they need to be." I've gained many new business/professional friends saying this - in all honesty.

You can do this. After you do, you'll feel alot better. Be the Victor not a Victim.

Easy. Take a deep breath and just do it.
