Speak Up!: The Introvert's Guide to Confidence, Friends, and Conquering Anxiety

by Patrick King

Do you feel like there is something wrong with you just because you prefer to leave parties early? Do you feel incredibly misunderstood if you... prefer to stay in on a Saturday night occasionally, or to spend time with yourself? And networking events - aren't they a nightmare!? I've been there, and it's frustrating trying to live up to something or someone that you just aren't. Instead of recognizing the strengths and weaknesses of an introvert, you just continually try and fail to fit in with who you think people want. All you want to do is just take some time for yourself, damnit! Stop asking me if I'm tired or okay! Speak Up! reflects the research and techniques I've implemented in my own introverted life to extend my social battery, command social situations, and generally fool everyone into thinking that I'm a major extrovert. Social confidence, winning friends, and conquering social anxiety is largely a function of recognizing that introverts have unique strengths, and at our best we can do everything an extrovert can do - and more! What will you learn inside this book? * How to increase your social battery so you never have to leave a gathering early again. * What you can do that an extrovert could never dream of. * How to have great conversations when you are socially exhausted. * Making sure that just because your battery is empty, you're not unapproachable or standoffish. What else? * How social goals can you make you feel socially confident and smash anxiety in one step. * The inevitable social dynamics when an introvert is around. * Dating, flirting, and deeper for introverts. The wallflower arrives and just hopes not to be noticed. They are forgettable, non-memorable, and don't make an impression. Learn to smash all those and more in this book. You'll be able to make an instant impression, and burn brighter and longer at any social situation. Never will you leave an event early, or be a downer by calling it quits. You'll be able to hang with the best of the extroverts, all while remaining yourself - and giving your personality the chance to shine with improved social graces and presence. Most importantly, you give yourself the opportunity to make meaningful connections that you wouldn't otherwise.

I really learned a lot about myself . About why I react the way I do when I am around a lot of people, I listen and don't talk a lot. This is a really good read that will help you recognize patterns in our lives. I received this as a promo and the review is 100% my own.

I enjoyed reading this book. It explained to me the differences in peoples personalities that i never realized had a name before now. I have been in many places where I have observed introverts and extroverts and this book does a good job of differentiating between the two. In my opinion the author does a great job with the advice that he gives to introverts on how to maintain or handle social interactions that they engage or find themselves in. After reading this book I can honestly say I am walking away with a better understanding of how to handle myself when in social interactions. If you think you need more confidence with social interaction then I recommend this book to you, and who knows it may be exactly what you have been looking for. I was lucky enough to receive this product during a promotion for my honest and unbiased review.
