Hi there, quiet soul! How's life going on? Is your battery fine?
If you're landing on this page, I'm guessing you have a little confusion or curiosity with the "alone" side of yourself or someone introvert living around you. I believe you already much listen about introvert, extrovert, and ambivert. The world characterized an introvert as a super silent guy with all his own thinking that others might never understand.Â
They're often left behind by everyone for their lack of social life. In a wrap, introverts often judged as boring and complicated persons. Contrary, I introduce you to the social butterfly who always charms everyone in each party you've ever been involved in. They are outspoken, shining, and always successful to attract public attention as they are ice breakers of every situation. Yep, the extroverts.
Meanwhile, the expert found a combination of both, known as ambivert, which was not really clear how to define the limitation. They also explained that those three characteristics were differentiated based on their way of gaining energy.Â
Back to the introvert's silent world, it is so surprising when Barack Obama has declared himself as an introvert. The world noticed his leadership on leading the superpower of America including his charismatic speech ability. How come he is a "quiet" lover, then?
Introverts really love to be inside their comfort box. You will at least find these three things in it. Now let's open up the box:
Firstly, you will find a "life" battery charger. It could be a series of tools such as comfort foods, places, music, books, hobbies, pets, movies, or other "escape from crowds" options. This tool is so mandatory to save introverts' daily life. Those keep them sane from too much human or social interaction especially after being in the middle of the noisy world. This might be their most important energy charger. The more complicated their days, the more often they need to get back to their comfort zone.
The second thing is a super sensitive detector. This tool allows introverts to process each situation that has happened to them, especially when it is draining their energy. The detector will give a certain alert to remind them of the "fight or flight" system which is related to the time limit for them to escape immediately to their energy charger. If not so, they will lose control over themselves due to too much external impulses.
The third and last part, their inner deep and strategic thinking. In the middle of calmness and tranquility, introverts will find peace and clear ideas. It allows them to deeply analyze the situation and problems. The inner thinking consists of a certain layering which will process the issues step by step through strategic and analytical thinking until it raises a solution and problem solving. However, this is the most unique part inside introverts' box.
The different proportions of character are very diverse in each personality. Nevertheless, they similarly contain both unique strengths and weaknesses. So, keep it up and cheers.
