Introverts' Weapons
 |
Description
Book Introduction
The truly strong are not loud. The inner energy that makes infinite dreams come true Do you know what Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, Warren Buffett, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates have in common? The common denominator among those who are acknowledged as the best is that they are introverts. Most people believe that to be successful, you need to be extroverted, enjoy being in front of people, and speak fluently. But this is a stereotype and a misconception. If you're an introvert but have ever tried to pretend to be an extrovert to achieve success, it's time to shift your mindset and capitalize on your strengths. Introverts aren't just quiet and timid people. Introverts are born with the ability to build relationships through skillful listening, to guide others without coercing them, and to gain trust simply by being present. Mike Beckel, a consulting legend and author of "The Introvert's Weapon," says that if you can harness your infinite inner energy and use your natural weapons well, you can achieve just about anything. In this book, the author distills 20 years of research into introversion into a guide to turning introverts' innate strengths into weapons for success. Haven't you ever forced yourself to stand in front of people? But your true influence is exerted behind the scenes. Introverts don't bring about change through direction or coercion. You don't have to come out and try to persuade the other person; you can guide their actions by asking questions and looking into their thoughts. Think of the person who has had the greatest influence on you. Perhaps it's not someone who strongly asserts their opinions, but someone who listens to you and takes you seriously. Introverts can easily move the hearts of others with their innate sharpness. Can you be trusted simply by your presence? If you're an introvert, it's possible. Trust is the currency of relationships. Just as it is difficult to save money, building trust also requires effort. Measure others' trustworthiness by observing them closely, build trustworthiness by listening to their stories, and maintain trustworthiness by responding thoughtfully. We are born with the asset of trust without having to work for it. Feel like you need to say one more thing? Feel like you need to pump up your energy? Feel like you need to attract more attention? If so, focus on your introversion! By understanding your temperament and leveraging your strengths, you can achieve anything, whether it's achieving success or changing the world. You don't have to be someone you're not to be successful. Just live as an introvert and be the best at it. |

Into the book
We need a paradigm that recognizes the unique contributions and value that only introverts can bring to the world.
The more we try to be extroverted, the more we all miss out on what only we can offer.
Now we need to turn our attention from comparison to contribution.
Let's now explore what only we can contribute and how we can achieve it.
--- p.12, from “Prologue_Introverts Need a New Paradigm”
People who have unconscious biases against introverts may not realize they are believing these myths unless someone points them out.
Moreover, we often overlook little-known truths and fail to capitalize on the strengths of introverts.
Even introverts can miss out on their strengths.
Especially if you've lived in an environment where unconscious bias is rampant.
We must clearly recognize the strengths we can leverage by repeatedly reminding ourselves of the truth.
--- p.76, from “Part 1_6 Strange Truths About Introverts”
In an extroverted world, your contributions may not be properly recognized by others.
But that doesn't mean you're worthless.
I hope you don't worry about what others think, but rather focus on your own abilities and become the best in the world in your field.
You need to actively manage your future career and make sure you have a solid grasp of your field before you show off your knowledge unnecessarily.
Then unleash the immense power of introversion.
Become a standout and make a difference in the lives of everyone you meet.
And don't try to package yourself, but let others shine.
This is how we build true relationships and, ultimately, change the world.
--- p.93, from “Part 1_Stuck in the past or moving forward into the future”
The energy recharge of an introvert and the energy recharge of an extrovert may seem different, but the line between them may not be clear.
Perhaps we too, observing how extroverts gain energy from social gatherings, should consider doing the same.
But that's not our way.
If you don't consciously find ways to distance yourself from people, you will end up depleted and unable to recharge your energy.
When you run out of gas, you can't go anywhere, whether it's a Volkswagen or a Lamborghini.
--- p.122, from “Part 2_The Relationships Created by My Own Safe Zone”
Introverts can make a real difference in other people's lives without being too talkative.
In fact, introverts have a special ability to do just that.
This ability is not a common one, such as being able to carry on a passionate conversation or perform at your best in a crowd.
The third master move unique to introverts is influence.
Our influence is created quietly and discreetly, without flaunting its presence, to change a world hungry for inspiration and truth.
--- p.139, from “Part 2_Introverts are stage directors”
If you want to be successful throughout your career, you have to be yourself.
I hope you will identify and embrace your true strengths and find creative ways to implement them.
Comparison with others is forbidden.
Because they are different from you.
You shouldn't be pretentious just to look good to others.
Rather, the more you show your true self, the more impression you can leave.
Ultimately, personality and ability must be in harmony.
Learning how to be fully yourself will allow you to thrive in any environment and remain true to yourself throughout your career.
--- p.232, from “Part 3_How to Create Your Own Special Career”
It's okay to feel uncomfortable in situations where you don't utilize your natural strengths and abilities.
However, if you just quietly follow your own path, you will truly find excitement, growth, and adventure.
Fear is like a cockroach.
Cockroaches are active in the dark when they cannot be seen, and they all run away when the lights come on.
Then it is time to take your first step into the light.
--- p.263, from “Part 3_If you overcome a moment of fear, a wider world will unfold”
This book is about hope.
This is not a book about survival, but rather about how to acknowledge and develop our uniqueness as introverts.
This book talks about how to become a victor, not a victim.
This book also helps you develop new capabilities based on the unique strengths of introverts, enabling you to succeed in any work environment.
This is possible when everyone stops trying to be extroverted and fully embraces their true selves.
The more we try to be extroverted, the more we all miss out on what only we can offer.

Publisher's Review
The truly strong are not loud.
Have you ever felt pressured to say one more word?
Have you ever drawn energy until it was discharged?
Have you ever felt the need to grab people's attention?
Most people think that to be successful, you have to be fluent in speaking and always present yourself energetically in front of people.
However, the world-renowned figures Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, Warren Buffett, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates were all introverts who enjoyed reading alone rather than standing in front of people.
Introverts are born with the ability to change the world with their boundless inner energy rather than the energy they project outwardly.
They are people who see through the world with keen insight, create new things with amazing creativity, and make decisions with careful judgment.
If you're an introvert, you've probably forced yourself to meet a lot of people for the sake of relationships, communicated verbally rather than written to achieve results, or made decisions faster than your own pace to achieve success.
But if you truly want to succeed, you need to find a calm and nuanced approach that suits you, rather than a loud and hasty one.
Mike Becktel has worked as a senior consultant at Franklin Covey, the world's most promising leadership firm, for 30 years and has compiled all of his 20 years of research on introversion into "The Introvert's Weapon."
We guide introverts on how to live fully as their true selves and confidently grow their careers.
You don't have to try to be someone else to be successful.
Become a true powerhouse with the unique weapons of introverts.
The Psychology of Personality: Overturning Stereotypes of Success
★Introverts create new things with their innate creativity★
Did you know that JK Rowling, who sparked a worldwide fantasy craze, was an introvert? Introverts have probably heard at least once in their lives that they have a rich imagination.
Introverts are born with an inner world that allows them to express rich emotions and a creative ability that allows them to present a wide range of ideas.
Introverted employees can leverage this to boost performance by suggesting new initiatives in meetings or by writing a series of articles for newsletters or blogs.
Surprise the world with your innate creativity.
Introverts grasp problems with their innate sharpness.
One of the words that describes introverts is 'natural strategist.'
Introverts are sensitive to change, so they are adept at identifying problems by utilizing their unique observation and analytical skills and solving them by exercising their investigative skills.
Because they are born with the ability to keenly analyze what is happening and formulate strategies through deep thinking, they are able to calmly and composedly solve problems when faced with them.
When faced with a problem, you can use your sharpness to analyze the situation, think carefully, and then come up with the most feasible solution.
As you build your sharp solutions, you also increase your value.
Introverts form relationships with innate sensitivity.
Let's assume that you are a job seeker.
What do you think separates the best from the countless applicants? EQ.
People think that the smart person with the high IQ will win, but according to Daniel Goleman, EQ is more than twice as important as IQ.
Introverts are born with four key components of EQ: the ability to identify emotions, manage emotions, empathize with emotions, and motivate others.
It means that you have the ultimate competitive edge called EQ that can help you succeed in any field.
Those who succeed are always those with high emotional intelligence.
Don't try to persuade others with your knowledge and skills, but use your innate sensitivity to move their hearts.
If you want to be successful, pay attention to your introversion!
If you've ever considered your quiet, passive personality a weakness, if you've ever struggled socially because you're an introvert, if you want to rise to the top just by being yourself, unleash your "Introvert's Weapon" and confront your inner self right now.
This book covers how to dispel misconceptions and prejudices about introverts, build trust and influence, and achieve results and reach your goals.
This book introduces the know-how to refine the unique strengths of introversion into sharp weapons for success.
It will be the best guide for those who did not know what their strengths were and who had difficulty figuring out how to utilize them.
Now, we need to learn how to succeed as an introvert, not how to live as an introvert.
If you can accept your temperament and leverage your strengths, you can rise to the top in any environment.
Go your own way, more calmly, more sharply, more carefully.
Success comes when you acknowledge your own personality and draw out your strengths.
