Turning discomfort into preparation

3:54

introverts

3:54

alike

3:55

but

3:56

introverts have been preparing for this

3:59

all our lives really right

4:01

we always feel uncomfortable in these

4:03

types of situations every time we have

4:05

an interaction

4:07

with with a stranger with somebody we

4:09

don't know very well we feel

4:11

uncomfortable so really we've been

4:12

practicing um for this moment all our

4:15

lives so that's a huge advantage

4:18

extroverts perhaps don't have the skills

4:20

to deal with this

4:21

awkward uncomfortable unnatural

4:24

situation

4:25

in fact there was a study done on how

4:27

different personality types performed in

4:29

the ielts cambridge exam and that had

4:32

some interesting results

4:33

the interesting result is that it was

4:35

kind of inconclusive and that's because

4:37

they found that extroverts were more

4:40

fluent

4:41

while introverts were more proficient

4:43

now i suspect that's because of what i

4:46

just said that the

4:48

introverts have to make more of an

4:49

effort

4:50

so technically

4:52

they speak better in the exams maybe

4:54

they make less mistakes they use better

4:56

vocabulary better grammatical structures

4:59

because they know they have to

5:02

maybe subconsciously make more of an

5:03

effort

5:04

whereas extroverts just are more natural

5:07

at speaking so they speak very fluently

5:09

which is very important and very good

5:11

but perhaps
