The World of Introverts


           How do Introverts see the world 

A flower is blooming and a butterfly is flying around that innocence. This is a random picture of nature. Four among five persons would see this. But only one can notice the small details and the inner beauty in it, only one can feel the joy of the butterfly and the smile of the flower.


Introvert - a familiar word in day to day life. Being an introvert is a bliss as well as an obstacle for the regular world. 


A Portraiture of an Introvert-Soul :-


"I want to be alone…. with someone else who wants to be alone." - Dimitri Zaik


  • They are very much sincere to choose people they share their thoughts with.

  • They have their own world in which they don't allow others to enter.

  • They love to spend time alone and also refuel themselves being alone.

  • They think a lot, but keep themselves quiet.

  • They like to keep their time, spirit and intensity specifically for the persons who reflect themselves.

  • They have a great observation power and analytical intensity. Sometimes they are actually minimalist. 

  • They have the creative mind.


Various kinds of Introversion we can see :-


Psychologist Jonathan Cheek (Wellesley College) has made some research and categorised the Introvert. But at the end, all get amalgamated into a single one. Still we should know about the diversity to relate ourselves and accept the reality with guts, and get prepared to face the challenges of the outer world.


  1. Social Introvert - They sincerely avoid social gathering and communication. They get uncomfortable or shy or timid to join with the social crowd. They have few people to break their regular solitude.

  2. Thinking Introvert - They have a special kind of intensity to think common happenings in a different perspective. While thinking they just ignore the social environment, the presence of people. They live in a dreamy imaginary world.

  3. Anxious Introvert - They basically become very nervous and feel uncomfortable with unacquainted persons or in a social crowd. So they intentionally try to isolate themselves from social issues. For the lack of self-confidence, they feel awkward unreasonably.

  4. Restrained Introvert - 'Think before speaking' - this defines the Restrained Introverts. They try to avoid unprompted circumstances. They become shy and puzzled. They have to get prepared before they open up.


Some Self-Care Sparks:-


Though people think that being Introverted is a behavioral disorder or may be a psychological issue, it isn't a problem at all. They are just like others. All people are different, so they are just a kind of people. So there is no problem, so no need for a solution. But I can suggest some self-care points which are especially effective for the Introverts.


  • First and foremost, there is no need to change yourself. Be what you are. Cherish your true self.

  • Being an introvert does not mean not to care for others. I know you do. Do in that way you are comfortable with. 

  • To avoid stress and depression, you should spend time with your family or with your closest ones or with your non-human buddies.

  • Stay in your own imaginary world, but sometimes try to touch reality. It's important. Try to enrich others with your intellect and get enriched from other precious thoughts, get enriched with the practicalities.

  • Don't ever think that you are worthless. Don't ever lose your self-confidence. Go and stand in front of the mirror, see the sparkle within yourself .

  • There is a kind of bad introversion. If you have those qualities, you need to be changed. Specifically, I can say, don't preserve the arrogant or bad attitude towards others. Whenever it is needed, you have to communicate. Nobody can read minds. Whenever your hands need to assistance , come out of your shell. That's enough.


A tiny concluding message from an Introvert:-

Yes, I'm also an introvert. That's good. It will be monotonous if each person will be the same. So don't ever belittle yourself. You are great in your own way. So be faithful to yourself and be kind enough to mankind.
