A New Look at Introverts

We used to see introverts as people who lack confidence in themselves, people who don't like people, people who are social outcasts. But is that true? Maybe yes. Maybe not.

Here's an alternative view of the introverts. This simple yet comprehensive visual offers a new perspective on how to understand introverts better.

"Dr. Carmella's Guide to Understanding the Introverted"

To summarize, introverted people:
Tend to avoid people because they don't want to "spend" their limited energy on "unnecessary" social contacts.
Tend to stay alone because that's when they "recharge" their energy.
Tend to enjoy the company of people who respect their personal space (hamster ball).

With the concept of "energy conservation", it's now a lot easier to understand how people (both extroverts and introverts) relate and interact with one another.
