All of us are on a constantly on the move and many families relocate every 6 months or a year leading to start our lives anew and so we may lose our old friends and our old surroundings and we are forced to live with some new surroundings with unknown or unfamiliar people. It may be stressful for some of us, whereas some can take this in a stride and those who enjoy socializing and social networking and new places and challenges will not find it difficult to adapt. But a large number of people find it very difficult to adapt to leave people and places where they have been emotionally attached to. So it takes some time to forge new networks and new connections or one should just maintain superficial connections and lose sight of the old situations and the people whom we have bonded with. Some people have a difficultly on reconnecting or making new friendships or connections and as a result they may keep aloof and they may be misunderstood. In today’s world of social networking, and being with people has become so important. We have to take some steps to connect with people wherever we are or in whatever time. When we are in a new place, our anxieties may escalate and we may have new doubts. So stop doubting yourself, make a list of your positive qualities, what are the things you are good at, what you like, what are your hobbies and you see how you can connect with people with hoses hobbies. Stop comparing with otters. A lot of pole compare with others and feel themselves as losers and try not to connect with people and they may remain withdrawn and may not try to connect with people. What you can do some timings like you can join the neighborhood club. You can talk to your neighbors. You must take the first step that is get out of the house onto the road, look around you and see what is happening in the new place. As a result we get cocooned with our own comfort zones and serious loss of enriched social interaction whenever we are there, try to see the culture, the dress, the interest, what things are happening, and try to connect with that. Unfortunately when we leave the house, we are carrying our thoughts with us and we are blind to what is around us. So have a smile, and a welcoming body language. So nobody wants to associate themselves with a frowning, appearing to be angry, irritable, and slouching and disinterested. So try to make eye contact, have a pleasant smile. Try to be intrusive, observe your social greetings. If the other person reciprocates, then we can continue especially when you are in some voluntary activities. If you are interested in children or education, look at opportunities where you can take some part time or voluntary event. Join some local events. You can volunteer or you can try to do something for the local events as they take place as you can be locally accepted in the new community where you are.
