Auch ich z\u00e4hle mich zur Gruppe der eher introvertierten Personen. Ich kann Smalltalk nichts abgewinnen, f\u00fchle mich im wortkargeren Norden wohler als im lebhaften S\u00fcden Deutschlands, h\u00f6re lieber zuerst und intensiv zu, anstatt allen sofort und permanent ins Wort zu fallen und gebe dem kontemplativen Kick stets den Vorzug vor einem Adrenalinrausch. Dass die Einstufung als \u00bbSonderling\u00ab, die viele aus diesen Pr\u00e4ferenzen ableiten, ebenso abwegig wie fehlinterpretiert ist, fasst der Kreative Carl King<\/a> in seinen \u00bb10 Myths About Introverts\u00ab<\/a> sehr sch\u00f6n und schl\u00fcssig zusammen. Das ist so treffend formuliert, dass ich mir die \u00dcbersetzung ins Deutsche mal spare.<\/p>\n

Myth #1 \u2013 Introverts don\u2019t like to talk.<\/strong>
\nThis is not true. Introverts just don\u2019t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won\u2019t shut up for days.<\/p>\n

Myth #2 \u2013 Introverts are shy.<\/strong>
\nShyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don\u2019t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don\u2019t worry about being polite.<\/p>\n

Myth #3 \u2013 Introverts are rude.<\/strong>
\nIntroverts often don\u2019t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting.<\/p>\n

Myth #4 \u2013 Introverts don\u2019t like people.<\/strong>
\nOn the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close friends on one hand. If you are lucky enough for an introvert to consider you a friend, you probably have a loyal ally for life. Once you have earned their respect as being a person of substance, you\u2019re in.<\/p>\n

Myth #5 \u2013 Introverts don\u2019t like to go out in public.<\/strong>
\nNonsense. Introverts just don\u2019t like to go out in public FOR AS LONG. They also like to avoid the complications that are involved in public activities. They take in data and experiences very quickly, and as a result, don\u2019t need to be there for long to \u201cget it.\u201d They\u2019re ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging is absolutely crucial for Introverts.<\/p>\n

Myth #6 \u2013 Introverts always want to be alone.<\/strong>
\nIntroverts are perfectly comfortable with their own thoughts. They think a lot. They daydream. They like to have problems to work on, puzzles to solve. But they can also get incredibly lonely if they don\u2019t have anyone to share their discoveries with. They crave an authentic and sincere connection with ONE PERSON at a time.<\/p>\n

Myth #7 \u2013 Introverts are weird.<\/strong>
\nIntroverts are often individualists. They don\u2019t follow the crowd. They\u2019d prefer to be valued for their novel ways of living. They think for themselves and because of that, they often challenge the norm. They don\u2019t make most decisions based on what is popular or trendy.<\/p>\n

Myth #8 \u2013 Introverts are aloof nerds.<\/strong>
\nIntroverts are people who primarily look inward, paying close attention to their thoughts and emotions. It\u2019s not that they are incapable of paying attention to what is going on around them, it\u2019s just that their inner world is much more stimulating and rewarding to them.<\/p>\n

Myth #9 \u2013 Introverts don\u2019t know how to relax and have fun.<\/strong>
\nIntroverts typically relax at home or in nature, not in busy public places. Introverts are not thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. If there is too much talking and noise going on, they shut down. Their brains are too sensitive to the neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Introverts and Extroverts have different dominant neuro-pathways. Just look it up.<\/p>\n

Myth #10 \u2013 Introverts can fix themselves and become Extroverts.<\/strong>
\nA world without Introverts would be a world with few scientists, musicians, artists, poets, filmmakers, doctors, mathematicians, writers, and philosophers. That being said, there are still plenty of techniques an Extrovert can learn in order to interact with Introverts. (Yes, I reversed these two terms on purpose to show you how biased our society is.) Introverts cannot \u201cfix themselves\u201d and deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race. In fact, one study (Silverman, 1986) showed that the percentage of Introverts increases with IQ.<\/p>\n
