#QuotsyJul21 #exhaustion

“We need time alone to restore ourselves. Introverts are pressured to push ourselves to the point of exhaustion in social situations-then we feel guilty for becoming irritable and grouchy. We blame ourselves for not being able to be ‘on‘ all the time.”

Prairiegirl_reading I don‘t understand why “extrovert” was ever the goal. Some people are and some people aren‘t, one is not better than the other. 4y
DebinHawaii @Prairiegirl_reading I agree. Probably set by extroverts! 😉🤣 4y
TK-421 ❤️ I totally relate to this quote 4y

I gave it about 75 pgs before bailing. It‘s nothing I don‘t already know and I have a stack a mile high to get through. I‘m trying to remember to let myself put down books I‘m not enjoying.

JoyBlue Good for you for protecting your precious time and TBR stack! Thanks for the warning, too. 😉 5y

Oh what this book could have been! Instead of giving advice, it spent most pages complaining about extroverts. I skimmed the end and didn't find anything I didn't already know (spoiler: find your charisma by placing yourself in situations where you feel comfortable. Don't let yourself be controlled by extroverts, etc...).

Way over my extrovert capacity today. Taught an over-full class & between facilitating & individual discussions on the breaks, meeting w/the client team after-for next week's class, not eating enough breakfast to last through very late lunch, & making bad choices at the grocery store (why we don't shop when hungry!)😬I'm lying on my bed w/the aircon on, bitterly cursing because my treat from the client is full of raisins & not chocolate!😩🍫#TGIF

UnabridgedTomes Booooooo raisins! 8y
LectricSheep Every treat should have chocolate. 8y
My_novel_obsession Ugh..the worst when you are expecting chocolate and you get raisins instead 😩 8y

DebinHawaii @UnabridgedTomes @LectricSheep @Anovelobsession I know, right?! I was totally thinking they were blondies with chocolate chips/chunks & then realized they were raisins. 😩 8y
Hooked_on_books Arg, raisins! So rude. 8y
Audrey So. Wrong. 8y
