I would like to suggest the book "The Introvert Advantage" by Marti Olsen Laney. It explains the unique gifts and strenghs of introverts. It really changed the way I look at myself. Check it out.

I once took a personality test, it said I was an Introvert, also that I was 1 in 100

I have spent my life overcomeing that, and according the outfit giving the test, that is why I am always exhosted, I am an introvert pretending to be an extrovert, I have been working on that through this course, to accept myself as I am, stop pretending to be an extravert is on that list.

Hi all,
I also have the book "The Introvert Advantage." For introverted people such as myself, it is very affirming. It's worth reading and pondering.

I have not read this book but I ordered a similar book from Amazon, and The Introvert Advantage was suggested to me.

So if you have read The Introvert Advantage, you might also like Confessions of an Introvert: The shy girl's guide to career, networking and getting the most out of life (Meghan Wier). I have found this book very helpful. There are also a number of inspirational quotes throughout the book.

I have to return the other two books I have out on loan from the library, so I will also see if I can get a hold of a copy of this book. Thanks for the tip

Thanks for letting me know about The Introvert Advantage. I'm not familiar with the book but will put it on my list of books to purchase. I am an introvert in an extroverted society and that is not an easy place to live.

Party of One by Anneli Rufus is also good.
