🤫 Shh... Give Me a Moment - My Next Book :)
A life guide for introverts to thrive in a loud, distracted world
The Question That Started It All
"How did you overcome your introversion?"
A corporate leader asked me this question.
This came after I shared my journey - growing up happy where my life was colourful, with sunshine and rainbow. Then villains slowly crept into my life to knock me down: familial conflicts, bullying, failed grades, loneliness. I befriended with suppression, and quietness followed.
At first, I shared ideas and tactics which helped me 'overcome my introversion' with the audience. Hours later, I reflected while riding Hong Kong's MTR and buses on my way home. This crossed my mind:
We never ask extroverts to "overcome" their extroversion. And why did I also treat my quietness like a disease I had to fix when I was young?
In the last few years, I've connected with thousands of leaders, professionals, parents and kids from all walks of life. One of the things I've learned is this:
Quietness is often the result of many things. It's neither good nor bad.
The introspective revelation became Shh...Give Me a Moment (my 6th book, 1st with Penguin Random House SEA). Not a guide to "fix" introversion, but a manifesto for reclaiming our natural strengths. This book is not about introverts versus extroverts; we need both as well as ambiverts in our world. I hope this book can help readers debunk the introversion label, the quietness myth.
