I will be more active
“Active” sounds appealing, although the term gets complicated fast by those physicists. Being an active person is rather simpler: talk more, reach out more, and worry less about saying the wrong thing.
I used to be shy about mistakes, until I realized I have already made far too many to maintain that image. The real art is knowing when to chime in and whom to bother. Eventually I will become Dr. Extrovert.

Me and one of my more successful culture experiments. Raised with sunlight, coffee, and much unsolicited conversation. It now appears eager to grow up and move out.
