On social mediaintroversionHave you noticed that many people aspire to be like that?
First, as a premiseExtroversion and introversionThis refers to the following properties:
What is extroversion? (Click to display)
Extroverts primarily derive satisfaction from external sources. They enjoy interacting with others, are passionate, talkative, assertive, and sociable. Extroverts gain energy and thrive in their surroundings. They enjoy activities involving large social gatherings, such as parties, community events, demonstrations, and corporate or political organizations. They also tend to do well in groups. Extroverts enjoy spending time with others and find solitude less rewarding. They tend to feel energized when around people and easily get bored when alone. One study suggests that extroverts tend to wear more decorative clothing, while introverts prefer practical and comfortable clothing.

Introversion is a state of being primarily concerned with one's own mental self. Introverts are generally perceived as more reserved and introspective. Some prominent psychologists characterize introverts as people whose energy tends to expand and contract in a reflective manner during interactions. This focus on mental energy rather than physical energy is similar to the view of Carl Jung (psychiatrist). There are few modern concepts that make this distinction. Introverts often enjoy solitary activities such as reading, writing, and meditation. Introverts tend to enjoy spending time alone and are less rewarded by time spent with large groups. Introverts are easily overwhelmed by excessive stimulation from social gatherings and interactions. Some define introverts in terms of preferring quiet, low-stimulation external environments. They prefer to focus on one activity at a time and like to observe the situation before participating. This is particularly observed in developing children and adolescents. They tend to analyze before they speak. Also, extroverts tend to prefer cheerful and energetic music more than introverts.

There are people who are afraid of what the hairdresser will think of them and can't muster the courage to go to a hair salon, but in the following thread...Many extroverted people gather and empathizeYes, it is. See the reference article below.
(If you're struggling to take action because you "lack the courage" to go to a hair salon other than those mentioned above, please refer to the following article ↓)
Introverted people (those with a high degree of introversion) often don't worry too much about it and make decisions based solely on "what they think."Therefore, they don't really consider "the feelings of the hairdresser." Consequently, a very introverted person probably wouldn't understand the problems in the thread above.
Now, after that lengthy introduction, here's a tweet from Haruki Kai, a well-known influencer:
Not a person's life
The above is a quote from Haruki Kai's tweet.And some authors emphasize
Live your own life.
Living in fear of being disliked by othersLife is about living someone else's life.
I live my life knowing that it's okay to be disliked.This means living your own life.
Here"A person who lives in fear of being disliked by others = a sensitive person (an extrovert)"And,
"People who live their lives thinking it's okay to be disliked = introverted (don't care what others think)."That is correct.
In other words,Haruki Kai"Let's become introverted."That's what I'm saying.。This tweetOne reason for its popularity is the large number of extroverted people on social media.SometimesProbably.
Generally speaking, people who prefer to actively interact with strangers on social media, such as retweeting and posting, are often "extroverted." Perhaps they were experiencing mental distress stemming from their extroversion—a kind of exhaustion from worrying too much.That's probably why there are so many "extroverted people (who yearn for introversion)."
but"Being conscious of what others think is a valuable talent."And it's true that society functions because there are so many people like that. That's a good thing and an advantage in itself.
Another point worth noting is that what has been revealed in psychology in recent years is"My own nature is more unique than I thought, and it's difficult to change."That's the point. (Of course, this doesn't mean it's impossible to change or correct these traits. For example, it's difficult for a very introverted person to become very extroverted, and vice versa.)
In that sense, it's important to focus on "how to make the most of" your extroversion (being concerned about what others think).That kind of extroversion is very useful, for example, when showcasing (not self-indulgent) makeup techniques on YouTube.
You only live once. It's fine to admire someone who's the complete opposite of you, but it's also a good idea to make the most of your own inherent qualities.
