Want to speak more

I have been introvert and mostly dont speak much. But whenever i meet someone socially i speak less. After i met someone , i regret that i spoke so less. I try consciously to speak more but not able to succeed. I speak a lot more with friends but sometimes i falter there too. Any ideas how to break the barrier.

Go to cubbon park and join ice breaker clubs where you interact with strangers.
You shy away because in past you had bad experience or you will that you are judged on how you carry yourself.
There are two types of introverts one by choice another due to self doubt

You need to check which one you are. If you are the 2nd one read books on communication, psychology, mind , grammer. Watch English news on how anchors talk and try to grasp that

What will you get by speaking more? Its not important whether you speak more or less, it's importat that whatever you speak is clear and interesting and heared by person whom you are speaking to

I feel jealous when people can express their thoughts in a fluid way. I feel i will have more friends, connections and network if i speak more. That's why i want to speak more

Even I want to. The ability to strike convo with ANYONE is so underated. Its like a soft power.

Agreed, i see people have great conversation with anyone. I follow zakir advice to be ok when you speak more , you allow person to be judged. But i want break the barrier of being judged.

But why do you want to speak more with strangers? Is it like you want to make a great impression by speaking nice and speaking more? Well, unfortunately, it doesn’t work like that

No its not about impression. Its just whenever you express it gives a clarity in your mind. You have one less thought in your mind. You can always improve in type of thoughts but speaking your mind is important.

It is a good habit no need to worry😃🤪

I remember one quotation i.e. “Excessive speech harms the mind – Moderate speech brings great joy.”😃
