The power of introverts
- The power of introverts
《内向者的力量》Susan Cain
English
The quiet power of introverts shapes our world in ways we barely notice. In a culture that celebrates extroversion, we often overlook quiet thinkers. Many of the greatest ideas, art and inventions came from people who valued silence, reflection and solitude.
Introverts are not shy. Shyness is fear of social judgment. Introversion is simply how you respond to stimulation: you gain energy from quiet time, and lose energy from long social interaction.
We need to stop forcing everyone to act outgoing. The world needs introverts to speak up, and we need to create space for quiet ideas to emerge.

内向者安静的力量,以我们难以察觉的方式塑造着世界。在崇尚外向性格的文化环境里,我们常常忽视沉静的思考者。无数伟大思想、艺术创作与发明,都诞生于珍惜安静、善于自省、享受独处的人。
内向不等于害羞。害羞是害怕他人评判;内向只是人对外界刺激的反应模式:独处让你积蓄能量,长时间社交消耗你的精力。
我们不必强迫所有人变得外向。世界需要内向者勇敢发声,也需要留出空间,让沉静的想法得以生长。
