Top 10 Myths about Introverts
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk.
This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.
Myth #2 – Introverts are shy.
Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite.

Myth #3 – Introverts are rude.
Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting.

Myth #4 – Introverts don’t like people.
On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close friends on one hand. If you are lucky enough for an introvert to consider you a friend, you probably have a loyal ally for life. Once you have earned their respect as being a person of substance, you’re in.

Myth #5 – Introverts don’t like to go out in public.
Nonsense. Introverts just don’t like to go out in public FOR AS LONG. They also like to avoid the complications that are involved in public activities. They take in data and experiences very quickly, and as a result, don’t need to be there for long to “get it.” They’re ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging is absolutely crucial for Introverts.

Myth #6 – Introverts always want to be alone.
Introverts are perfectly comfortable with their own thoughts. They think a lot. They daydream. They like to have problems to work on, puzzles to solve. But they can also get incredibly lonely if they don’t have anyone to share their discoveries with. They crave an authentic and sincere connection with ONE PERSON at a time.

Myth #7 – Introverts are weird.
Introverts are often individualists. They don’t follow the crowd. They’d prefer to be valued for their novel ways of living. They think for themselves and because of that, they often challenge the norm. They don’t make most decisions based on what is popular or trendy.

Myth #8 – Introverts are aloof nerds.
Introverts are people who primarily look inward, paying close attention to their thoughts and emotions. It’s not that they are incapable of paying attention to what is going on around them, it’s just that their inner world is much more stimulating and rewarding to them.

Myth #9 – Introverts don’t know how to relax and have fun.
Introverts typically relax at home or in nature, not in busy public places. Introverts are not thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. If there is too much talking and noise going on, they shut down. Their brains are too sensitive to the neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Introverts and Extroverts have different dominant neuro-pathways. Just look it up.

Myth #10 – Introverts can fix themselves and become Extroverts.
Introverts cannot “fix themselves” and deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race. In fact, one study (Silverman, 1986) showed that the percentage of Introverts increases with IQ.

Dukung Facebook Unfriend Coal di Hari Bumi!
Dear Sukmawati,
Anda bisa ikut berperan mendukung Facebook untuk go green!
Saya yakin Anda punya account Facebook, dan menggunakannya secara aktif. Sambil mengecek update dari teman-teman Anda di Facebook, kenapa tidak sekalian melakukan aksi untuk mendukung situs favorit kita itu agar melepaskan ketergantungannya pada energi batubara, dan lebih bertanggung jawab pada lingkungan?

Selama berbulan-bulan Greenpeace telah mendesak Facebook untuk mengikuti langkah [R]evolusi Energi kami. Kami ingin mereka berkomitmen untuk menggunakan sumber energi terbarukan untuk mengoperasikan jejaring sosial ini dan berhenti menggunakan energi batubara. Mereka telah mulai bekerja ke arah sana, tetapi tidak cukup cepat! Kita harus terus mendesak mereka.
Indonesia adalah negara dengan pengguna Facebook kedua terbanyak di dunia. Jadi kalau kita bersatu dan bekerja sama, suara kita akan berdampak besar pada keputusan yang dapat dibuat oleh Facebook.
Kami memberikan batas waktu bagi Facebook pada Hari Bumi, 22 April 2011. Ini berarti 15 hari lagi! Greenpeace punya halaman multi-lingual di Facebook di mana semua orang dari seluruh dunia dapat bergabung dengan kampanye Facebook Unfriend Coal, jadi ajak semua teman Anda dan bergabung dengan kampanye kami sekarang juga.
Yang perlu Anda lakukan hanya klik di sini, dan Anda akan menemukan informasi tentang berbagai cara Anda bisa mendukung kampanye ini. Anda juga bisa menonton video Facebook TV ad yang khusus dibuat oleh Greenpeace untuk kampanye Unfriend Coal. Kami butuh bantuan Anda agar sebanyak mungkin orang dapat menonton dan berbagi video ini melalui jejaring sosial. Jadi tunggu apa lagi? Segera berbagi dengan keluarga dan teman Anda melalui Facebook dan Twitter. Jika anda memiliki blog, Anda dapat membantu dengan memposting video “Facebook TV Ad.
Selain itu, pada Rabu, 13 April 2011 mendatang, kami akan menggalang pengguna Facebook di seluruh dunia untuk menuliskan komentar pada halaman khusus di Facebook. Kami berharap dapat mengumpulkan ribuan komentar untuk kami sampaikan langsung kepada manajemen Facebook. Kami juga akan berusaha memecahkan rekor dunia bagi komentar terbanyak di Facebook dalam 24 jam, dan Anda bisa menjadi bagian dari rekor dunia ini! Kami akan mengirimkan link untuk halaman khusus ini ke email Anda dalam waktu dekat, dan jangan lupa terus ikuti perkembangannya di Facebook dan Twitter kami.

Dengan dukungan Anda, tidak lama lagi kita akan melihat tampilan “Facebook digerakkan oleh Energi Terbarukan” pada profil Facebook kita. Sungguh cara yang terbaik untuk menikmati jejaring sosial sambil menyelamatkan bumi dari perubahan iklim.
