“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson Sometimes living in a world of extroverted personality types can feel challenging or draining to navigate as an introvert. With time, those special extroverts around you may even get to know you and learn to respect and value you for just the skills and qualities that make you unique.“Introverts are collectors of thoughts, and solitude is where the collection is curated and rearranged to make sense of the present and future.” ~Laurie Helgoe

One Respects Oneself, To Respect Others.

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson Sometimes living in a world of extroverted personality types can feel challenging or draining to navigate as an introvert. It’s okay to be different and allow space for that part of you.

One need to believe in Oneself to conduct well amid difficulties.

Here’s what I’ve learned about being an introvert that has helped me embrace, value, and honor myself, just as I am.

A Simple Guide for Introverts: How to Embrace Your Personality - Tiny Buddha

So much about life in our culture right now has become about the next thing. The next project. The next promotion. The next vacation. The next experience. We’ve become obsessed with growth as it pertains to results, achievement, and living a respected, successful life. Where you are right now is not perfect. It may not be ideal. But it is your reality. And if we don’t start with reality, if we can’t handle this moment with grace, we have no real hope for the future.

Illusion Halts Progress.

Taking things to head and being arrogant causes lots of confusion to deviate from reality and err.

“The more you are focused on time—past and future—the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is.” ~Eckhart Tolle

Building It Right To Face Challenges

There’s a lot of talk about how living in challenging times can help students develop resilience.

How to Help Students Be the Best Version of Themselves

The most successful people in the world don’t sit waiting for opportunities. They go out and make opportunities for themselves.

He was said to fall asleep in a chair holding two steel ball bearings over metal pans. As he drifted off, the balls would fall.

Bullshitting is a strategic attempt to impress, persuade, or otherwise fit in better with others by misleading them in some way.But if they’re spreading bullshit even when they’re not trying to mislead others – because they actually believe it – then there’s a much higher chance that they will lose whatever strategic advantage that bullshitting might have provided, because fewer people will take them seriously.”
