For social anxiety in real - life, acceptance is key. Accept that you might feel anxious, but don't let it stop you from doing things.

And remember that most people are more focused on themselves than on you. So, that little mistake you made probably won't be noticed as much as you think. Just relax and be yourself as much as possible.
