The Introvert Advantage

I just started reading this book. I've always known and accepted that I'm an introvert, but I've also associated many of my introverted traits with other pathologies. So sometimes I think I behave a certain way because I'm an introvert, and other times I think I behave a certain way because I'm a freak. While both things may be true, this book is helping me to distinguish one from the other.

For example, "Introverts need to calculate how much energy something will take, how much they need to conserve, and plan accordingly." Even though that behavior is completely natural to me to the point where I don't even have to think about it, I still think that I tended to categorize that into the "freak" column.

And, hey, I'm only on page 21!
