Hi, Lets stop a bit and reflect before you actually start on the path to be an extravert. The question here, is about your motivation to be an extravert - why do you want to be an extravert in the first place? Usually we tend to equate being extravert with being happy. However, we need to know it's possible for you to be happy even if you are an introvert. A second issue might be related to gaining approval - how you believe you absolutely need others approval for you to be happy. I would suggest that you meet a trained psychotherapist and discuss these issues who could help you in your process of self-discovery. A major aim would be to be who you are and to be happy in being so. All the best! Abdul
