to see the bias clearly you<00:04:09.190> need<00:04:09.310> to<00:04:09.460> understand<00:04:09.880> what<00:04:10.000> introversion you need to understand what introversion you need to understand what introversion is<00:04:10.660> and<00:04:11.850> it's<00:04:12.850> different<00:04:13.150> from<00:04:13.330> being<00:04:13.450> shy is and it's different from being shy is and it's different from being shy shyness<00:04:14.320> is<00:04:14.470> about<00:04:14.680> fear<00:04:14.890> of<00:04:14.920> social<00:04:15.160> judgment shyness is about fear of social judgment shyness is about fear of social judgment introversion<00:04:16.750> is<00:04:17.140> more<00:04:17.440> about<00:04:17.739> how<00:04:18.130> do<00:04:18.190> you introversion is more about how do you introversion is more about how do you respond<00:04:18.730> to<00:04:18.790> stimulation<00:04:19.269> including<00:04:20.170> social respond to stimulation including social respond to stimulation including social stimulation<00:04:20.860> so<00:04:21.670> extroverts<00:04:22.150> really<00:04:22.420> crave stimulation so extroverts really crave stimulation so extroverts really crave large<00:04:23.050> amounts<00:04:23.410> of<00:04:23.470> stimulation large amounts of stimulation large amounts of stimulation whereas<00:04:24.550> introverts<00:04:25.060> feel<00:04:25.390> at<00:04:25.660> their<00:04:25.960> most whereas introverts feel at their most whereas introverts feel at their most alive<00:04:26.470> and<00:04:26.920> their<00:04:27.040> most<00:04:27.220> switched<00:04:27.430> on<00:04:27.610> and alive and their most switched on and alive and their most switched on and they're<00:04:27.940> most<00:04:28.090> capable<00:04:28.330> when<00:04:28.960> they're<00:04:29.080>

time<00:04:34.990> so<00:04:35.800> the an absolute but a lot of the time so the an absolute but a lot of the time so the key<00:04:36.160> then<00:04:36.720> to<00:04:37.720> maximizing<00:04:38.620> our<00:04:38.890> talents<00:04:39.370> is key then to maximizing our talents is key then to maximizing our talents is for<00:04:40.510> us<00:04:40.750> all<00:04:41.020> to<00:04:41.500>
