Have you tried not being an introvert?

I enjoyed reading your contribution; your comments about the misconception that introverts are shy are so “spot on”. I have just the seen the article on the extraverts/introverts issue and have concluded that I am introverted with a learning style that needs travel and “doing activities” to acquire knowledge. But I can only take so much of the idle chatter before I need to withdraw for some peace and solitude. If anyone wants some positive vibes about the attributes of introverts, I have found a few websites that suggest that introverts make great leaders. I have included the links on my website.

I wrote a song about extros & intros & posted on a different site recently. I joked that since I was failing at my attempt to explain my extreme introversion (100%), that I should write a song to help him out — since songs seem to be a go-to these days to dumb things down enough for all to get the message — wrap it up in a catchy tune & you get a loyal product following.

Anyway, maybe the like-minded here can enjoy it too:)

“E I, E I, Whoa!”
By someone who doesn’t want anyone to steal her song; just enjoy it

Extro – version, Intro – version
Neither, either is perversion
Outside, Inside, it’s all the same
We all — play the progressive game
Life! In different ways
Paperback, Playground – it’s all a maze

E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I, woe ho
E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I … Whoa!

It’s about fun, & bein en-ter-tained
It’s interest, but that’s not all the same >> our brain
Intros rock hard on acetylcholine
Extros – on dopamine
Together? We got cyber screens

Intros work long on micro details
Extros burst hard on macro scales
Both needed … to get things done
Needed,… to make things fun

Intro Jobs plus Extro PR
Yielded Apple … n awesome Pixar!
Intro Gates — Microsoft
Exy Jolie — Laura Croft
Kiss? We know they’re Ex-tro
Bella — closet Intro
Facebook, twitter, smartphone, apps … skype
Take or leave tools for any lap type

Hype … gave Intros voices
Extros … get more horses
From wince the coin — came want
Elaborate fabric & font
Power wars, byte-y strip malls
Ooooh, … the needs won’t fall!

E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I, woe ho
E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I … Whoa!

Talent comes in many flavors
Some red hot, some you’d like to savor
Focus … inside, outside, in between
Mix em together … zest you’d never foreseen

Knowin who you are lightens dark corners
Till then … you’re your own foreigner
Mammal, animal, no control
We need … some Human Patrol
That hate, … comes from within
Get control or you’ll never win
Gotta know your own language, write your own song
Gotta find boundaries, … where you’ve gone wrong

Learn … your own way
To find yourself up in a brighter day
Learn … your own way
To find yourself up in a brighter day

E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I, woe ho
E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I, oh

E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I, woe ho
E I, E I, woe oh
E I, E I … Whoa!

As an introvert woman, I have missed the boat, the train and the plane and remain in the cinders. This is the only disadvantage ( but a major one) in being introvert. It is easy to find a job with education but extroverts manage to get hold of everything in life.

my god…who ARE you!
quote~”I think this uphill course develops Subtle people in a different way than most others. We can’t just take a path of least resistance as many others seem to. No such option exists! I’ve often wished I had a direction in which I could just let myself flow!”
sooooooooooo true. you said it.

I agree the book, Party of One, is an excellent read.
