    Your Introversion Isn't Broken, You're Just Using It Wrong

    Miglior citazione da Your Introversion Isn't Broken, You're Just Using It Wrong

    “

    The problem isn't your introversion; the problem is that you've been trying to fit into a mold that was never designed for you. Successful introverts don't become more extroverted—they become more themselves.
