From my perspective, this article is not suggesting people try to be someone else.
It reminds me of the popular book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking"
In that book, the author suggest that introverts fake extroversion in short bursts.
As an introvert myself, this is something I've done for a decade. It's tiring but pays off. Sometimes we introverts miss out on great opportunities because we don't stretch our comfort zone.
I think this article is good advice on small ways for introverts to put themselves out there and "fake extroversion".
- thejaredhooper 12y ago"The author suggests that introverts fake extroversion" is still convincing someone to be an extrovert.
- andrewflnr 12y agoNo, it's really not, especially if you don't drop the "in short bursts" qualifier.
