Susan Cain - THE POWER OF INTROVERTS.

[@nerychristian]

I'm an introvert. People at work ask me why I don't contribute more during the meetings. I tell them I really don't have anything to add to the discussions. But the truth is I don't say much because I know that it is pointless. Why should I try to give my ideas away, when the ones with the loudest voices will be the ones making the decisions?

[@richardgates7479]

So what?

[@KeepItFresh02]

I never said a single word in any of my meetings.

[@meidhyalamsyah26]

well, I prefer to do some action rather than just talk, that is the best choice for me.

[@kennyg1440]

[@dansonmaina.]

This is so me in meetings. And worse still, turn the meeting into a contest of who's idea is the best!

[@INTJIsland]

No need to make a fuss about it. Introverts have put up with abuse all their lives, as they are told to be "more social" etc. We are tough enough to get through that, and then we go on to create companies, technology, and scientific theories that provide so much of what society takes for granted. We have put up with "team building" and "group projects" and gone on to shine anyway. It's the empty can that makes the most noise. If you want to know what is going on, ask an introvert and then shut up and listen as well as he he just listened to you.

[@marcp.1752]

The worst is talking nonsense, smalltalk, chitchat conversations with strangers - you don't want to know them, you don't want to talk to, and especially parties - only depleting your own batteries, overwhelming. It's much more refreshing, just being alone, or into nature, or having a hobby of yourself.

I feel like the place that looks down on introverts the most is America. I guess it depends on each state but from what I’ve seen if you’re an American people think there’s something wrong with you if you prefer to be quiet and on your own. Once America became more advanced the pressure to be more outgoing also increased. That’s why I’ve always admired Japan or the UK, being an introvert is not only tolerated it’s viewed as polite.

I totally feel uncomfortable & offended in a situation where there's a group working quietly and a person storms in on the scene and assumes that the group is not doing anything because of silence. But the group has been working silently & writing things down. There is a taboo imposed on people who like working quietly & alone. One has to be loud, one has to be talkative.

Truly, introversion (or even periods of introversion) is so important, because that is who we are and that introverted place is the seat of our soul and the place where we can come to know our true selves. Possibly the source for endless inspiration. That was a great story shared about the grandfather !!

Better being stamped "boring, quiet & shy" than having stupid, silly & nonsense conversations with extroverts. Society sucks, in terms of lemmings behaviour. Just be yourself - and happy. It's not important, what others (might) think about you...

[@erickborling1302]

Chin up, darling. A fellow introvert could enjoy a neat gift in your company; feeling relatively "extroverted" by your thoughtful presence. Assuming that like the rest of us introverts you only speak when your thoughts make it past your internal quality controls. So, you only say what is well-considered.

[@learnwithbinh]

Let the people talk. You know who you are and why you do something or how you react to something, that's the important thing. I find it too tedious and not absolutely necessary to convince others to understand you and your behavior, a pure waste of time, so to speak. SAYING NOTHING often means more than SAYING TOO MUCH. Most of the time one goes around in circles and discuss things to death. That makes no sense. I've been through enough meetings where the talk was just for the talk because many can't stand the silence and feel like they need to talk. I like to watch colleagues who constantly do their duet to make themselves feel important. Sometimes I grinned inwardly because I didn't necessarily find everything constructive. What I don't like is the false and fake friendliness und fake kindness.

I saw that office floor plan and just tensed looking at it. I have one class in college that is mostly group work.

[@prettysimpleday9192]

Thank you for this. It helped me so much. You validated my feelings and experiences as an introvert.

[@GaryR55]

I'm reading your book, "Quiet," currently, and, while I've known for years that I'm an introvert, the book has helped me to see how much more introverted I actually am and it has also helped explain things that happened to me in my early childhood. For example, my mother always told me I was a "colicy baby," so, when I read what you wrote about "high-reactive" children, I knew that I had definitely been one and I've been able to recognize this in myself even later on in my adult life. That said, I have since learned how to cultivate a more or less ambiverted mode. I am sometimes mistaken for being an extrovert, but this only happens when I'm around people who share common interests with me. Otherwise, I'm mostly spending my time alone. In fact, if I'm invited to a party at which there is no one I know and the people there don't seem to share anything in common with me, I will eventually wind up by myself, thinking about what I'm going to do when I get home. Explains why no one has invited me to a party in years, huh? Solitude is a large part of my life. I'm a street photographer, among other things, but even in a crowded urban area, I become lost in the crowd, alone in my head, and this is when I feel "in the zone," in which I create my best images. Sometimes, it helps if I take my MP3 player with me, loaded with instrumental music (mostly jazz), as this helps me to further screen out the people around me. In my photos, the people in my scenes are only props, mostly silhouettes, who are only there to complete the scenes by lendng the human element. Oddly enough, the people watching me work think I'm an "undercover cop" doing photosurveillance. Part of the reason for listening to music is to drown out their chatter about who they think I am and what they think I'm doing.

[@verticegirferd5069]

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

I discovered I was an introvert several years ago when my Pastor shared the quiz 16Personalities. As a nurse I could never figure out why I was so drained at the end of the day. Not the way you’d think. Yes I was tired from the physical work (which I am now paying for I might add) but it was if I was an overinflated balloon that someone finally let the air out of. I would get to my car and I wouldn’t even have the mental capacity to put the key in the ignition. I had to sit in my car for a few minutes and just BE. To me, being an introvert was an anathema. But after taking the quiz it was amazing what I learned about myself. Recently I was thinking about my oldest sister who was diagnosed with ADHD when she was probably in her 60’s. All those years ago people didn’t know about that or if they did they weren’t talking. I began to think about my life and I wondered if she had ADHD could I also since we shared much of the same tendencies. I went online and found out that yes I possibly have ADHD with inattentive presentation. And I thought about my son and grandson and realized they too could have the same issues. While I am not bouncing off the walls the hyperactivity can manifest itself by constantly doing something while supposedly being quiet such as shaking a leg, twirling hair etc. Which explains why I always had trouble concentrating, formulating thoughts (as Susan mentioned the class would be over before I could formulate and share an idea). Right now my son is grilling dinner and all I can think of I wish he could finish up and turn his music down which is loud enough to rattle my brain. Soon, I hope!!

[@abishaicampbell2187]

Most extroverts aren’t really deep thinkers and operate life on a shallow level. If you don’t stimulate their egos, they aren’t gonna care about you. They’re gonna see you more as a means to an end rather than a real human. Horrible people, I don’t think so. But self centered yes.

I know from experience how many people who are not really competent to do their jobs skate under the radar under the guise of "group efforts". At work I see 2-3 people doing one person jobs and they take much longer to accomplish the task than what it would take to do it solo. Of course there are times when we need to collaborate and bring in different skillsets and knowledge bases, but too much I see people doing things in a group just to live up to the ideal of it.

Getting rid of the, lawyer inspired and enabled, non-scientific, "evidence-based" medicine paradigm is first on my list. It looks like it is happening. But getting the public on board and embracing the new paradigm (bioenergy measuring and enhancement, among other things) is going to be challenging and slow.

Of course, I hope that I'm wrong.

[@TheSkaterjoe123]

I think it’s just mainly due to the fact that extroverts tend to be more assertive than introverts, thus they are more likely and feel more inclined to implement and impose their values and beliefs on others and to the world as a whole. Introverts are more reserved type, of course we can be social, but I don’t necessarily believe we feel as naturally inclined to impose our values and beliefs (such as beliefs relating to how a system should function in a work environment) on others and the world. Our ideas get drowned out by those of the extroverts because they are louder and more willing to fight for people to adopt their beliefs, they overpower the ideas of introverts due to their natural tendency to be assertive. That’s my theory as to why society is extrovert dominant, but I could be wrong. I’m not saying introverts are shy people or can’t be assertive or confident, I’m just saying based off my personal experiences and observations of people and society, that extroverts are generally more assertive.

I don't know how anyone can read the Old Testament and then the made up New Testament and beleive in the lie of Jesus who most likely never exist. God hates idols and Christianity is a perverse form of idol worship based on the Mithras myth.

and the subtitles?????

Why is she not mentioning AMBIVERTS? Most people are somewhere in d middle. Don' t know why people keep saying so many extroverts exist. I have met so very many from d west.

[@deadmanswife3625]

Extroverts do require intense constant stimulation. I think they are numb or calloused or something

[@VonAndrade]

I could only imagine how she looks like when she was a bit younger :D

[@TheNishad]

carlo andrade introverts will look beautiful always but success is difficult for them.

[@kikinyc4177]

That's what you got out of this well-researched talk?

[@michabarycki2781]

At work my boss don't bother me with meetings beacause they are pointless, she just give me a task or a problem to solve and I will figure it out in silence, no pointless talking for a sake of it, if I have some question I will ask and if someone have a meaningful advice I will take it, at previous job we had this frigtening guy called anmator, he just randomly took people away from their work and come up with some stipid games that usually squisched workers together in different combinations, it was awful, he supposed to energise people, but all he did was to sap my energy away.

[@crestonhardcastle7631]

As crestons wife she is wrong about a few things isolation workaholic isolated in their work or mark from fb he's not an introvert he is stoic I had a friend and a Dr who was stoic they rarely smile they are so no personality I'm an introvert that's not an introvert the designer isolated in his work I'm an introvert we smile more we are not stoic like mark of fb we don't live in isolation like that designer for months at a time that has nothing to do with being an introvert but she's right we love our alone quiet time and we like a different environment we don't like large crowds of people talking to us or a large gatherings during that time if we go we will be like can't wait till this is over talking to one person ignoring the crowd and we perfer book stores libraries not bars or nightclubs we don't like what the life of the party does we don't enjoy that and introverts have more of a personality and we smile more look at mark in a cbs interview with his wife he's a complete stoic no smile no personality whatsoever that's not us introverts we may be quite but we smile and we do have a personality stoic people never have that like that friend I had the Dr I had just like mark from fb we are nothing like mark or that designer but she had alot right except those two things

[@deadmanswife3625]

As far as aping other people's opinions maybe less and less so as you mature

[@random-np3gn]

extroverts stop stealing ideas from introverts!!!!

[@SpaceCattttt]

Oh, I don't have a work life or personal relationships. So I guess this video isn't for me. Bye.

[@johnjones9006]

Thats okay. Do your thing!

[@bernieorbust6104]

Whoever uploaded this should have edited this, and removed the interrupts and parts where she had technical problems. The're very distracting.

[@51MontyPython]

I found it interesting to see how she, as an introvert, dealt with these situations especially being on the spot in front of so many people.

[@ronaldsanders4009]

o yea lol

[@rvtj40]

How can a living being repeat same thing over and over again?

[@bellachance1206]

rvtj40 I often think that about Susan too but I realise that to get the message across she has to repeat herself. And as an introvert, it was probably easier for her to memorise and repeat the same speech over and over to get more comfortable and more able to spread this important information.
