Can I mention that I found that the most horrible book I have read in years?
The first 50 pages were doable when scrolling through. But soon it dived into how introvert people can be successful, while that success is measured in extravert ways. Like the introvert guy giving presentations about how to be successful. For me everything was "feet on top", "upsidedown". And all very much about looking successful and making an impression. It didn't do any justice to what I would want from my life, more like the opposite. I don't want to be like Bill Gates.
The only thing I took from that book was the description of three personality traits; shyness, introversion and HSP. They seem the same to other people but are very different. Shyness is about fear something might happen in response to what you do. Introversion is that you mostly gain energy in quietness, less in social situations. And HSP means that someone is sensitive and everything comes in quite hard.
