Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves with practice. you want to meet people and make friends, you must take action. It is much
(easy) to communicate with people sharing your hobbies and interests. So join a club or a group,
you are likely to make new friends.
Many people are fearful when talking to new people. After all, meeting strangers means (face) the unknown. Actually, most of our fears about dealing with new people come
doubts about ourselves. We imagine that other people
(judge) us, finding us too tall of too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept what you are,
you’ll feel more comfortable.
Try to act with (confident) even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look
(direct) at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to speak to, don’t wait for him/her to start a conversation.

magnificent life.
Opportunity is in the same way; it is everywhere. It is so freely available that we take it granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success; it must

(possible).
Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. , it takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity. You must make use of it. That’s not up to the opportunity; that’s up to you. It doesn’t matter what “floor” the opportunity is on, but
matters is what you do with it.
