The Power of Introverts





I myself am an introvert and I believe strongly in the sense of solitude and its ability to make me a better person. This video with Susan Cain shares the power of what being an introvert really means. Our society today pushes people to be extroverts; in school they force us to work in groups and in society if we don't act outgoing we are often ignored. I also want to share with you a link to Susan's book http://youtu.be/UAAoJc1oC9s . The world needs all kinds and I think that we often forget this. Carl Jung was the creater of the theories in which introversion and extroversion are based. The Myers-Briggs Test is used to determine what your personality is. I am an ISFJ, to find out what you are you can take the test at http://www.personalitypathways.com/type_inventory.html .
