Isn't it refreshing to know that what comes perfectly natural for you is your greatest strength? Your power is in your nature. You may not think it's a big deal that you can spend hours immersed in something that interests you-alone-but the extrovert next door has no idea how you do it.

Whatever kind of introvert you are, some people will find you 'too much' in some ways and 'not enough' in others.

If the extrovert watches and listens a bit more, the introvert's true mood will become more evident.

Introvert, her brain responds with a high level of activity, it is as if several lights start flashing on a control panel.

Introvert conversations are like jazz, where each player gets to solo for a nice stretch before the other player comes in and does his solo. And like jazz, once we get going, we can play all night. Extrovert conversations are more like tennis matches, where thoughts are batted back and forth, and players need to be ready to respond. Introverts get winded pretty quickly.

When an introvert is quiet, don't assume he is depressed, snobbish or socially deficient.

I am rarely bored alone; I am often bored in groups and crowds.
