The Problem


After I left my hometown and started my master's degree in a totally different environment, I started to see my introverted self more than when I stayed in my comfort zone, especially when I went to social networking events. However, as a beginner in the field, building a network is vital.

And I started wondering if there were other people experiencing a similar situation. That's when I came across the book 'Quiet: the power of introverts in a world that can't stop talking' by Susan Cain.

In a TED video about her research, she said "about a third to half of the population (in America) is introverts". This applies to the rest of the world.

Therefore, HALF of the people are what I'm dealing with here.

"How might we help introverts stretch themselves outside of their comfort zones?"
