Creating a belief of success in our lives is one way to end the frightening trap of embarrassment and shame.Successfully completing a difficult project at work builds confidence and leads to future success.Similarly，a satisfying relationship is a prideful accomplishment and helps motivate us to seek other such connections.

　　But how do we take that first brave step away from selfconsciousness in order to feel like(and eventually become) a success？Kill shamecausing situations before they become a threat.The following points may be of some help.

　　Don't be late.Punctuality creates selfdiscipline(自律) and impresses both others and yourself.And it's a healthy habit that keeps you calm about the clock.

　　Stick to the facts.You're likely to get caught lying，so why bother？Lies just set you up with unnecessary opportunities to feel ashamed.

　　Cut the gossip(闲言碎语).Comments made behind your back make you feel upset and angry.Focus on deep，meaningful talks where every conversation can be a chance to realize a dream or accomplish an aim.Don't break your promise.It feels good to be considered reliable，so honor your word no matter what the reasons are for disregarding them.Remember，a promise is a promise.

　　If the damage is already done and you find yourself at the tail end of an embarrassing situation，you can recover gracefully to avoid the feeling of shame.Don't speak in an angry way to cover your tracks—you'll just end up feeling worse and likely complicate a relationship that doesn't need complicating.Try laughing it off or explaining why you made the mistake.
