Goal: To feel comfortable talking with anyone

[Blackie_Chan]

My latest goal is to feel comfortable talking with new people (that is talking for more that 10mins or so, exchange little comments is easy for me). Now I've got to break my goal into little tasks and accomplish these tasks one by one.

 

What are some of the tasks I should try to accomplish? I figured one of the things I'll need to practice talking to new people in person at least once a month. The problem with that is I don't know where I can meet new people to talk with for such a long time? Is there a job or volunteer position that someone can think of that I can apply for? How can I go about accomplishing my goal?

Try boystown. If you have one up there. They are always looking for volunteers for wayward teens. Most of the time you'll be listening to problems, but it will give you an opportunity to talk to strangers for a length of time.
