I live my life how the great Tyrion Lannister thinks of the world: “Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor, and it can never be used to hurt you." I put myself into the world, do the things I want, and if I’m rejected, I turn my cheek and try something else. Get good at something that doesn’t require talking. You will gain confidence that will bleed over to all other things you do.
