Let's Debunk A Few Myths Behind Introversion...
Introverts need to be fixed
The truth is that introverts are still frequently perceived as inferior to extroverts in our society, resulting in feelings of inadequacy or shame for introverted individuals. However, it is essential to recognise that being an introvert is not a flaw.
Introversion represents a distinct approach to processing information and engaging with the world. Introverts possess unique strengths, including profound thinking and reflective abilities, which warrant celebration and appreciation. Embracing and valuing these strengths is crucial.
Introverts dont have social skills
The truth is that introverts may not derive the same enjoyment from socializing as extroverts do, but this does not imply a lack of social skills.
Introverts excel as listeners and communicators, often gravitating towards meaningful conversations over small talk. They possess the ability to read body language and pick up on nonverbal cues, demonstrating a keen awareness in social situations. Introverts' unique strengths in communication should be acknowledged and valued.
Introverts are just like you and me
Perhaps underestimated because of our quieter nature, but that doesn't diminish our ability to change the world if we want to. While we may require solitude and space for reflection, we find joy in socialising with close friends in a cosy café.
We don't seek the spotlight, preferring to observe and think before we speak. What we can do is embrace our quiet power and confidently be ourselves. It's not about conforming to extroverted norms but celebrating the unique contributions us introverts bring to the world.
If you're anything like me, you've not only heard them but maybe even believed all of these and more. I fell for these myths so deeply that I was in denial about being an introvert, even answering how I thought an extrovert would on a personality assessment to try to convince others—and myself—that I was an extrovert.
I don't want you, or anyone else, to feel ashamed of being an introvert because you've bought into these myths. The truth is, we do like people, just maybe in smaller doses, we can absolutely be confident, and we are definitely not boring!
