Difficulty: Medium
Duration: 21 Days
Execution Steps
1
Micro-Initiations

2
One Conversation Goal
Pick one target skill per conversation: eye contact, curiosity, or concise self-disclosure.
3
Repair Over Perfection
If you stumble, repair with humor or clarity. Confidence is the ability to recover.
4
Rejection Rehearsal
Do small “no” exposures (ask for a minor favor). Learn that rejection is survivable.
5
Post-Game Review
Write one thing that worked and one adjustment. Avoid global self-judgment.
