Thuy Vy Nguyen and her colleagues ran diary studies tracking how people experienced time alone, and found something that contradicts what everyone assumes.
speaker_3HOST
Introversion didn't predict whether people wanted solitude or got anything out of it.
speaker_3HOST
What predicted it was dispositional autonomy, the tendency to act from genuine self-congruence, and interest rather than from pressure.
speaker_3HOST
So, enjoying your own company isn't shyness wearing a costume.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Not everybody likes agreeable people.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Extroversion is also a personality style.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
So is introversion.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Extroverts are real lucky.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Here's the thing.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Introversion is such a big topic, maybe it's selfish, that I'm going to give it its own video.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
So we'll break down the introversion because it does have impacts on the introverse and narcissistic relationship.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
So you may be wondering, can extroversion actually put you at risk for getting into a narcissistic relationship? Hell yeah.

Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Traditionally, introversion has been treated as just the opposite or the counterweight to extroversion.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
It's not.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Introversion is just not merely the opposite of extroversion, but sadly, in the classical test that measures this five-factor personality model, it's often regarded that way.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
That misses the unique elements of introversion as being its own sort of freestanding personality construct.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Things look good.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Extroversion is characterized by higher energy.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
People who have that solid level of extroversion are sociable, warm, assertive, they're active in the world, they're excitement-seeking, and they tend to have more positive emotions.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
These can be upbeat people who have large social circles.
Lynda GrattonGUEST
I know for myself, for example, I'm very much focused on when I look at my own life and trying to understand myself.
Lynda GrattonGUEST
Introversion rather than extroversion, which people are surprised by because I can stand up and talk, but I am really fundamentally introverted.
Lynda GrattonGUEST
So that means that when I think about weaving my own life, it has to have times in it when I am on my own, when I'm reflective and That's why writing works so well for me, because it is an on your own reflective activity.
Lynda GrattonGUEST
So it's not that those personality traits aren't really part of my model of the world.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
So let's try that.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Introversion is a personality style.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Can you change that? Some of you introverts out there are thinking, yeah, I could step out of my comfort zone, go to a few more parties or networking events, talk to a few more strangers.
Ramani DurvasulaHOST
Yeah, I believe you.
Dave ElliottGUEST
Honestly a bit of both but overall plan
Ruairi WoodsHOST
Introvert or extrovert?
Dave ElliottGUEST
In real life, introverted.
Ruairi WoodsHOST
Okay.
Chris LooneyHOST
Now, let's just go back one second.
Chris LooneyHOST
Introvert, extrovert, what did you call the
Sarah Jay TimmermansGUEST
middle? Ambivert.
Chris LooneyHOST
How do you spell that?
Daniel PinkGUEST
Do men have different regrets than women? Do black, Hispanic, Asian people have different regrets from each other, different regrets from white people? Do people with lots of formal education have different regrets than people with less formal education? I looked at belief in God.
Daniel PinkGUEST
Do people who believe in God have different regrets or more regret, fewer regrets than people who don't believe in God? Introversion, extroversion is the whole array of qualities.
Daniel PinkGUEST
And what I found in the quantitative survey is there were not that many demographic differences.
Daniel PinkGUEST
They really were far more remote than I thought.
Andrew WommackHOST
AND IF I WAS TO SAY, BUT WHAT TYPE OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE? YOU COULD SAY, OH, I'M AN EXTROVERT TO THE MAX.
Andrew WommackHOST
OR YOU COULD SAY, NO, I'M AN INTROVERT.
Andrew WommackHOST
I'M A REAL MILD PERSON.
Andrew WommackHOST
YOU COULD DESCRIBE YOUR BODY AND YOUR SOUL BUT MOST CHRISTIANS DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHO THEY ARE IN THE SPIRIT.
