Thank You 30,000 Facebook Fans (And What I Think You Are Like)

Louder Minds now has more than 30,000 Facebook fans! Yay us!!

With this milestone I’ve been thinking a lot about what type of person is part of the Louder Minds community – whether reader of the blog, subscriber to the Weekly Introvert Update, or follower on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or Twitter. And from the majority of comments and interactions, I think I have a good idea.

I think this is someone who…

Recognises they are an introvert, or relates to some introverted tendencies
Uses this understanding to be happier, have better relationships – never to feel inferior or superior to another personality type
Has a sense of humor, isn’t sitting around waiting to be offended, is able to laugh at introverted quirks
Doesn’t use introversion as an excuse for self pity or martyrdom or preciousness, but instead wants to enjoy the pleasures and cultivate the strengths of this temperament (or as I like to say, embrace your personal weirdness)
Is outstandingly intelligent and good looking, obviously.

What a wonderful tribe to be part of!

Thank you so much for your part in the Louder Minds community – for your likes and reactions, your comments and shares, and the generous way so many of you talk about your own experiences.
