Verywell / Julie Bang

Beating yourself up for forgetting someones name or for spilling your drink wont do any good.

If youre embarrassed, own it.

But dont dwell on it!

Remember, you dont have control over everything.

But the one thing you’re able to always control is your own behavior.

A little mental preparation can help you feel calm enough to be your best self in social situations.
