Being outgoing is good for your life. More outgoing people like to meet lots of people and they have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not as hard as you think. Even shy people can be outgoing.

At first, you can try to be out going in front of your best friends or a group of friends. But the real difficulty comes when you meet strangers or new friends. Smile more, and usually they will smile to you, too. In this way, you may have some talks Start a talk. Just a simple “ Hello!” or “ How is it going?” is a good start. If you want to make interesting talks, you should read news in newspapers and prepare your views, or surf the Internet for new information and then keep that in mind.

The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun, and you may make new friends there.

When people talk to each other, write letters or make phone calls, words of the spoken form or the written form can send any message they want to pass on.

But are there any other ways you can use to communicate with people? Yes. Rich expressions on your face can be one of them. A smile on your face shows that you are happy. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad or excited. Body languages can do the same job. When you put your hand up in class, the teacher knows that you want to say something or you may have some questions to ask. You shake your head from side to side and people know you are saying “no”. When you nod, people will understand that you are saying “yes” or agree to others’ opinions or suggestions.

Other forms can also carry different messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop gives passengers instructions on which bus to take. The flag language made by soldiers can pass different orders. Sound from the school bell tells the students and teachers when to begin or end a class. A photographer can use the photos he has taken to tell others about what he thinks of the world around him. Music and films also convey（传递）the feelings and ideas of the musicians and the directions. So next time when you see a piece of art or listen to some music, take it as communication with its creator and try to get the meaning behind it.
