Famous Quotes By Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 755639

Jung was the first to propose the model of psychic energy, suggesting that for introverts, energy flows inward, while for extroverts, energy flows outward. Introverts tend to embrace this definition. It fels right for us because we know exactly what it feels like to have our energy depleted when we have sent too much flowing outward. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1679104

Ah, yes, the mix tape. The mating call of the introvert. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 2068575

Brando said he'd noticed that powerful people spoke quietly, and Don Corleone's quiet calm and nearly inaudible speaking voice are key to the character. When Corleone speaks, you have to be quiet to hear him. What can we learn from Don Corleone (that doesn't involve killing people)? That quiet does have its own power, if we harness it. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1900362

In one study, researchers used an iPhone app to check in on people at random points throughout the day and found that the more people were thinking about something other than what they were doing, the less happy they felt. Even when they weren't thinking about anything particularly bad. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 529840

I've been accused my whole life of being "too sensitive". This actually kind of pisses me off, but maybe that's just because I'm too sensitive. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 353916

Introverts are actually a lot like Clark Kent
mild and unassuming much of the time, but able to swoop in and turn on our Supercharm when we choose. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1607592

Hiding your introversion is a bad idea because introversion itself is not a problem. It only causes problems if different needs affect factored into a burgeoning relationship and handled with respect and understanding. No doubt introversion-related issues will come up over time in a long-term relationship
healthy relationships are fluid and ever changing
but if you start out being honest with yourself and the other person, you will have built a foundation for later adaptation, compromise, and mutual comfort and happinesses. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 101166

Nine out of ten introverts agree: The telephone is the tool of the devil. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 2224438

The introvert's dilemma is that we might not get a lot of invitations for the kind of socializing we like best
small, mellow gatherings. In other words, the kind of socializing other introverts like to do. Because, let's face it: We're introverts. We're all at home waiting to be invited to do introvert things. Which means, of course, that none of us are getting the invitations we crave. It's an introvert standoff. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 2137036

We know what it feels like to have our energy drained by too much interaction. It feels like my brain is tired, almost like a muscle would be tired. The more depleted my psychic energy is, the slower my thoughts come, the harder it is to speak full sentences or focus on what's going on around me. My senses become even more sensitive; noise and fuss are more overwhelming. And I become tense, irritated, cranky. That's when I know I need to stop, sit down, let my brain relax and put up its metaphorical feet. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1963796

What is a friend? We probably all have our own definitions. For me, it's someone I don't feel alone with. Who doesn't bore me. Whose life I connect with and who takes reciprocal interest in my life. It's someone I feel comfortable turning to when I need to be talked off the ledge, and for whom I am glad to return the favor.
Just a few people in my life fit that bill. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1751225

Historically, psychologists have looked at introversion as the absence of extroversion. They measure extroversion, and if you are low in it, then you are considered an introvert. This perpetuates the perception of introversion as negative space, and introverted activities as not really doing anything. We need to train ourselves, and others, out of this idea. We need to start seeing doing nothing (or reading, or working alone on projects, or whatever it is we do to recharge) as activities that are as valid as any social event. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 1129841

Just because I'm quiet doesn't mean I have nothing to say. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 791495

Extroverts sparkle, introverts glow. Extroverts are fireworks, introverts are a fire in the hearth. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 719766

Not only has volume been ratcheted up but expectations have, too. Quiet success
painting a picture, writing a poem, writing an algorithm
is all well and good, but if you haven't become famous doing it, then did it really matter? — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 611831

We didn't know you were an introvert, we thought you were just a bitch. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 609928

It's not that introverts aren't good team players. We just don't need to be in the same room as the rest of the team at all times. We would much prefer to have part of the project carved out for us to squirrel away with it in our offices, consulting as necessary but working independently. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 379201

Introverts think carefully before they speak. We can be excellent public speakers because we prepare carefully. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 235807

One of the risks of being quiet is that the other people can fill your silence with their own interpretation: You're bored. You're depressed. You're shy. You're stuck up. You're judgemental. When others can't read us, they write their own story - not always one we choose or that's true to who we are. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 212893

Another explained, I think I'd speak for any introvert when I say if you could hear all the thoughts running through an introvert's mind at any given moment - you'd feel like you'd just had your ear talked off for the last hour. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 169853

Just because you want to join the party does not mean you are required to stay until the last drunk passes out. — Sophia Dembling

Sophia Dembling Quotes 157671

Being lucky in love might be less a matter of luck and more a matter of paying attention. — Sophia Dembling
