“Beliefs are interpretations, not unwavering truths. The belief that likely has most damaged your life is that as an introvert you are defective. You are free to change that.”

The Satisfied Introvert by Benjamin Plumb
“If you were a rat, you would instinctively search for cheese at the end of every tunnel. Likewise, the winning recipe calls you down tunnels, chasing satisfaction. You rarely find it because through the recipe you are not looking to satisfy your authentic self.”

“For introverts, authenticity is the key to fulfillment in life, but you cannot be authentic until you detach from your recipe, your survival strategy.

You may feel genuine as you act out the recipe, but at some level you know it’s a sham, and you spend your life hoping you won’t be found out.”
Benjamin Plumb, The Satisfied Introvert: How I Broke Free from the False Self I Created and Started Living Authentically

“As an introvert, you have no flaw to compensate for. You can best gain the security and satisfaction you seek by proudly and openly emphasizing your quiet-person strengths.”
