Never Apologize for Being an Introvert

Recently, I was talking to a friend and he said, “most people don’t know this, but I’m actually an introvert” - like it was a big secret he was trying to keep from others. Of course, I knew he was an introvert, and I recognized that he was successful largely in part because of his introverted strengths. Actually, I’ve actually heard several people “admit” to being an introvert lately, as if they were saying that being an introvert isn’t good enough, but that they could be successful at what they did DESPITE being an introvert - not BECAUSE of it. Now, it’s true that sometimes it seems like we live in an extroverted world, where people are recognized and praised for being perceived as an extrovert, and having all the gifts that go along with that. But I’m here to tell you that being an introvert is truly something to be celebrated, and brings along its own array of amazing strengths and gifts.
