Riker-- you don't need to get big at the gym--you need to be confident in your body. You don't need to learn a martial art--you need to be confident that you could reasonably defend yourself so you aren't fearful. You don't need to take improv/comedy workshops--you need to be confident that you can entertain. It is in many ways about confidence and lack of fear. How you get there is your business.
Now, doing all these things is great and will help tremendously, but don't feel like the only way forward is to be a tae kwan do champion with thigh-sized biceps who can slay a crowd at the comedy club. Figuring out who you are and being that with confidence and gusto will get you a lot further than trying to be something you don't want to be.
Comfort in social situations will get you a lot further. Giovonny's "Oh, and one more thing, talk to multiple attractive women every day" is probably much better.
