Stop thinking in "I Want’s" and think in "I Am’s" If you constantly think like "I want to be more confident, I want to be more outgoing" then the universe will give you just that, the gift of wanting….
When you think in I am’s, it re-affirms that the statement is already true. "I AM confident, I AM outgoing." Eventually you will start to believe it yourself if you repeat it to yourself constantly.
Change your mind, change your body.
Change your body, change your mind.
If you change the way you act, maybe by putting yourself in situations that are uncomfortable, but to everyone else appears outgoing or confident, eventually those actions will become more and more natural as you adapt those personality traits to yourself.

you need to start small. Start with a small group of friends and you can go round meeting new people together. Find one friend who too is shy and try and build up together. There is nothing wrong with being shy! You dont need big groups of friends. I always found that its better to have a small selection of good friends. Surely all of those people who hang out in big groups cant like everybody they hang out with…

You need to put some flaunting in your step.
I’ve never not been confident, I have mad swag and I know it.
You need to start loving yourself. Put yourself on a pedestal, no one is going to put you up there if you don’t.
Once you love yourself, then you wont care what people think about you and after than, you will be confident enough to do anything.
Start chatting with people in class become friends with them, then they’ll introduce you to their other friends and eventually you’ll have a big group of friends.
Honestly, being arrogant (and knowing you’re amazing) is the way to get yourself some confidence.
