Does introversion hold an individual back from being positive to society? When someone thinks of an introvert they tend to think of someone extremely reserved and farouche. A person who shrivels at the thought of mere human and social interactions. A flower that has not yet bloomed and flourished in the light of society. This thought or the one-sided illusion of an introvert leads to the false conception that introverts are pushovers, weak prey, or feeble opponents often the target of bullying due to their inhabited mechanisms and withdrawn personalities. Even though Introverts are looked upon negatively their abilities and characteristics are far from negative. Living in the world of an introvert is like living in the world of a fantasy
This can be due to their naturally serene personalities. Getting through most situations is fairly easily and done with very little difficulty. People who tend to shy away from the public or their surroundings know how to figure out certain situations on their own, this can be understood because introverts thrive on their own. Quiet places and natural environments energize Introverts not only mentally but physically as well. In the article “5 Reasons Introverts Make Better Leaders” by Bruna Martinuzzi, it states “Introverts are not only quieter than extroverts, but they're also generally calm and collected. In noisy and chaotic organizations, which are often cauldrons of emotion, an introvert's presence is like a salve to the psyche. Their quiet energy is a hidden asset.” Introverts are better emotionally in particularly difficult situations. This makes them preeminent listeners whereas an extrovert may want to be the one sharing all the ideas, doing all the talking and none of the listening. Introverts are humble and keep clear of being in the limelight because they let their skills and talents do all the talking. "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.” - Matthew
