I found it all very interesting. The book focused on business more than I expected. At first I was put off by it, but then I became curious to know how it would fit in or compare to the theories and ideas my agency is pushing so hard right now in terms of management styles, employee engagement and strengths.
It has only been in recent years that I've come to see my introversion is not necessarily a weakness, although there has always been a sense that it is lesser than just the same. If that makes sense. I admire extroverts and have often wished I could be more like them. Cain's book helped me realize one isn't better than the other.
I find it interesting, although not surprising, how different cultures and countries value people who are more introverted or extroverted.
I really wish I could use this book to get out of those brainstorming meetings that are so pointless. Haha
Literary Feline ... LOL!! I was just going to comment on how Cain talked about creativity in a group vs alone. I found that her comments and research overview was fascinating, and really made me think about how it works in my everyday life.
Vampires is not at all like in the movies or books. Sure, I understand. You are young you have the whole world open to you. You can be anything that you choose if you apply yourself and try hard to work toward that goal. But being a Vampire is not what it seems like. It’s a life full of good, and amazing things. We are as human as you are.. It’s not what you are that counts, But how you choose to be. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the Vampires Lord on his Email: Richvampirekindom@gmail.com
