I Talked to One Stranger Per Day for 100 Days, It Changed My Life Forever

After nearly 100 days of approaching strangers, I noticed my anxiety and overthinking were gone — chatting someone up had become as normal as blowing my nose.

If you don’t make approaching someone a big deal, it isn’t. The more approaches I did, the more casual they became. This made me realize connecting with others is one of the most natural things in the world

Being open and interested is a cheat code for any social interaction. People love talking about themselves and their passions. Tap into it and they’ll love you for listening to them.

Everybody can teach you something, your job is to find out what. I’ve learned so many cool things, new perspectives, and mind-blowing facts simply by being curious about the person.

Connecting with other humans makes everyone happier. Most people left our conversations with a smile, which made me happy, as well

You’ll never regret approaching someone. I got some harsh reactions along the way, but I was always glad I pushed myself past my comfort zone.

Most people are just as nervous as you are. This means they worry so much about their appearance and behavior they don’t have much time to notice you messing up.

Learning to approach strangers has been one of the most beneficial skills I’ve ever learned.

It massively improved my self-worth, confidence, and social skills. It has opened more doors than I could walk through.
