My most outgoing state is one of high energy, and I can easily be the life of the party once I tap into it. However, I've rarely been able to achieve this state on campus. While hanging out with close friends, I can achieve it very easily. I end up telling jokes that are so funny that people still bring them up years later. I have some confidence issues, but I do believe in myself, and I have been successful, off campus, in the past.

The point is that I'm quite capable of leading a discussion and keeping people interested. My problem seems to be that I have trouble triggering my most outgoing state. On my technical college campus, everyone seems to be so isolated, and people scarcely talk to others they don't know. I think that I'm being sucked into the school's world of isolation, and letting the party control me instead of taking control of the party form the jump; Tyler Durden would not be very happy with me,lol.

Can anyone offer any tips on how to unleash my true personality on campus?

Dont think about it. Just do it

Because you didn't start crackin jokes out of nowhere with your friends either.


It takes a build-up of positive/negative feedback before you know what to do and what not to do

Keep going approaching, basically.

Also, just because people don't tend to, doesn't mean they can't.
