The terms introvert and extrovert were first socialized in the 1920s by psychologist Carl Jung.
Scientists don’t know for sure the causes of introversion or extroversion. However, researchers have found that introverts have a higher blood flow to their frontal lobe; this is the part of the brain that helps with memory, problem-solving, and planning.
They like to think in silence. When you see the quiet people in the room, be aware that the silence is just an illusion: there’s nothing quiet inside, but hundreds of voices and competing ideas. There’s no peace, no rest.
An introvert’s job is to break through the clutter, eliminate the noise and listen to one voice and one only. It’s an exhausting and meticulous task.

An exhausting and meticulous task
An introvert’s job is to break through the clutter, eliminate the noise and listen to only voice.
But an introvert won’t tell you any of that. They might only share their idea when asked, or sometimes interrogated, and only if it has passed their very high standards.

Introverts don’t like to waste words. Or time.
They might shut down in a loud group, not because they are shy but because that’s not their element.
They won’t fight for attention because they have bigger fights to battle, and they are all inside their brain.

Writing is a happy place for many introverts
- We find peace in silence. We can filter through hundreds of ideas until we find the one we want the world to listen to.
- We can express how we really feel without having to compete for attention we don’t seek.
- We can let the virtual pen be our microphone, and it feels awesome not to be interrupted.
- Writing is to an introvert what a busy room is to an extrovert.
