Publisher's summary

Ever try to impersonate an extrovert to fit in?

Can’t over come social settings because you’re easily over shadowed? Looking for the competitive edge that will make the playing field even so you can standout without changing who you are?

All around us we hear the achievement and success from two thirds the population. The other one third are the unheard voices. The ones who listen instead of speaking. The ones whose innovations go unheard of. The one who favor working on their own. They are the introverts with a voice not heard. Just because the quiet has enveloped you into the shadows doesn't mean you can't outshine the extroverts of the world. Even if your voice isn't heard, the value you bring will do the talking.

It’s no secret loud, outgoing, personable people have a leg up on the quiet. Some people are energized by others. And while there’s no right or wrong personality, there is a certain imbalance that puts introverts at a disadvantage in many situations. What that means is you need to find alternative means that allow you to fit in as an introvert. Learn the queues that allow you to take advantage of an opportunity and thrive in an extrovert world.

This book is not about reinventing yourself but providing the skill sets to even the playing field. I'm talking about how to leverage your voice in social settings. Know exactly what to say and connect when you want too. Leverage charisma on demand. Dominate your competitors as an entrepreneur or in a sales setting.

Furthermore, you'll discover:

  • How to single handily create small talk and chatter without being awkward.
  • How to outsell the extroverts even when your quiet and shy.
  • A survival guide for social situations to help you get known and be remembered.
  • How to build a network and make friends without changing who you are.
  • The one simple phrase that influence and persuades when nervous.

If you’re tired of being dealt losing hands for being yourself, then this book is for you. My goal is to teach you strategies that only internally focused people can use. Strategies that will put you ahead of even your most extroverted counterparts.

If that’s what you need don’t waste another second. Get this audiobook now and take charge of your life!

But it was helpful more times than not.

The author provided excellent points about the fact that not all introverts are shy, but then sometimes contradicted herself with guidance about how to overcome shyness as a general strategy. But it was helpful more times than not.

This is a praise book of the unique features

This is a praise book of the unique features of an introvert and how they are wired. They are not wrong. They are not anti social. They are not shy. They are not passive aggressive. They are not an extrovert. They are valuable and have a purpose and place in life, which is not to be an extrovert, but to be what they are.
Every extrovert must read this.

This book helps to explain

This book helps to explain that the brains of introverts and extroverts are different and thus, we process everything at different speeds and different ways. While I was reading this book, I could picture some of my friends and family who fit the personality traits of those mentioned in the book and it made it easier for me to understand the information presented.

Improve Your Social Skills

The author's values align fairly well with my own and I felt comfortable with my daughter reading it. My daughter hasn't shared with me her thoughts about it ( but that's par for the course with her) but she was happy about the idea of having a book to refer to. It was actually a revelation to her that social skills are something that she can learn more about and get better at. I work in the special education field, and I will be recommending this book to students and parents.

Great book for an Introvert to Read.

This was the first book I had seen or read about introverts specifically. It was wonderful to listen to. It has helped me to understand more about myself and also my son who is an introvert as well. I think it has also helped me to better understand my husband who is an extrovert because it does have a section about introvert/extrovert couples.

Filled with wisdom!

This book is insightful, practical, and inspirational. Although it did not answer all the questions on my mind, it gave me the courage and confidence to seek answers on my own for myself and my business.

Realistic answers to succeed socially

This book won't tell you things like "be a good listener and interested in people" to make friends. It will not give vague answers like most social articles out there do. This book comes with direct answers to any social question I have ever had.

Most of the information in the book is from the author's website, and it has helped transform me from an awkward, quiet, anxious person into someone who is comfortable conversing with anyone and who can easily make friends. I mostly bought this book to support the author and say thanks. The information has changed my life and can change yours too.

I found a great depth of understanding in this book about myself and in my relationships. I enjoyed the narrator's pace and delivery of the material. I highly recommend this book and will likely re listen in the near future.
