I was one of those fortunate enough to have him as a professor at Carleton University in the 90s. Best. Class. Ever. He had a profound impact on me and I still remember an astonishing number of details from his lessons. I still find myself quoting him in my daily life. I have never been so thoroughly entertained and enlightened at the same time. I gave him a Thank You card when I graduated, expressing my gratitude for what he gave me. Being his student was truly a gift. Not only was he exceptionally brilliant, but his ability to teach through stories is unparalleled and his ability to humanize experience remarkable. I'm so glad he's still sharing himself with the world though TED. If you're reading this Dr. Little, may I once again say Thank you. The world is a better place because you're in it.

The REAL issue with personality traits is they're never constant. Everyone's identity is in perpetual flux, too slowly to notice in real time, but we all feel the disconnect when we look at old photos of ourselves, showing evidence of a personality we no longer identify with... We all know our bodies completely regenerate on a cellular level around every decade or so, no doubt some process of change takes place in the brain's architecture and encoded data as well, perhaps responsible for the slight variations in our personal identities as we grow and live.

...Our personalities and our habits are synonymous. You could even say they equally influence each other. Our habits are just a file in our personality folder, a single brick in a much larger wall, and our personality dictates the habits we form, like a kind of psychological-physiological feedback loop. For example, chronic nervousness is a personality trait, whereas nail biting is a habit, but in this case the nervous personality drives the individual to bite their nails, and in turn that nail biting becomes a part of their personality. So when the slow changes in our personality occur, the same are equally taking place within our habitual exercises throughout life.

Thank you again

I've watched Brian's talk many times, it is one of my fondest moments of learning, laughing and relatability. I am an introvert, but feel nowadays after the loss of someone very close, the urge to socialise, be part of a group, and especially spend time and deepen my relationships with close ones. This is in a sense quite representative of the fact that introverts are not necessarily antisocial. I don't feel antisocial, but the opposite. I need to build close and deep relationships. Maybe the only differences in socialising is what we want to create in terms of relationship, and how long it takes to create it. Thank you so much Pr. Little for the inspiration, and the laugh.

i think because introverts are so attentive and have such an ability to observe and take in, we could act as extroverts and seem like a true extrovert, but an extrovert couldn't play as an introvert so well.

Thank you, Dr. Little for answering questions about "who am I, really". Actually, I've done tests that say I'm an extrovert but I also feel introverted tendencies because I often analyze things in depth, enjoy alone time well, and don't have as many friends as other extroverts. Until I thought "this test is not accurate" even though the results showed extroverts up to 3 times. Because of this video, I know who or what type of personality you are is not a barrier for you to do things you like or enjoy. We're more than introvert / extrovert kind of person. What makes difference and sense are these free traits and the way we enact and create a script in order to advance our core project in our life.

Fantastic! And he is true to what he said, he is a true introvert in every sense of the word... He didn’t even turn to see the standing ovation he got at the end. This guy is amazingly outstanding!

More like a spectrum? You can't be an introvert-extrovert hybrid without contradicting yourself. Most people don't stand in the extremes, but close to the middle, still leaning towards the other side. This is how the concept of ambiverts came to be, wich I think isn't necessary since we can't be both introverted and extroverted.

Very nice talk! I tend to be 'mistaken' for an extravert because of the way I interact with people (yes, I can be loud). However, I identify as an introvert because I don't /need/ social interaction (I can go without for weeks and be fine) and I need time to recover after social events.

I relate to that. When I'm out with friends I'm very engaged and "act" pretty extraverted. But it comes in bursts. Currently spending a week to myself aside from work of course, just to recover from a good week of using up my bursts. Then people get confused because I seemed so down to hang out and then suddenly "fall off the face of the earth" for a bit.

I also find strangers or acquaintances in person opening up to me... seemingly random too. I get told "I've never told anyone that" or "Wow I don't know why but I felt like I could share with you".

Tip: Born an introvert, be like that for first 20-25 years of life. Introverts observe things much better so you'll learn a lot. Then slightly shift to be a little extrovert get used to switching from one to another. Choose where to be extrovert where to remain silent and observant. Congratulations, now you can rule the life.

Minnoli Dalal You become extroverted by practicing. You can go out and plan to speak to so many people. Ask where something is in the grocery store. Say something about the fruit. Give a compliment, that’s super easy. Practice speaking to people without a real need, and as it becomes easier you can then begin to start speaking to people for longer. Keep the conversation going, just smile, nods at what they say, give eye contact, if you can’t think of anything to say- ask a question using the last few words they said, laugh a forgetfulness or lack of words etc. Being introverted doesn’t have to mean being a social hermit. It just means you like your me-time. When in doubt pretend to be someone extroverted you know personally and ask yourself what would they do. Good luck!

In the german language we have this word since the 1910s. Arschlöchig.

Currently pursuing my MBA at LSUS. My prof gave this as part of an assignment for our Organizational Behavior Class. I must say I thoroughly enjoyed this video!

Woah this means that my personality did not change from an introvert to an extrovert in two years' time as I has previously mistaken. I'm an introvert seriously acting out of character as a pseudo-extrovert for adapting to the deluging social situations I consistently find myself in. Mind - blowing.

I am an extreme introvert and everything he said is on point. I tried and pretended to be an extrovert in college because I thought it would be easier to go through college if I was popular and had more friends. Though I did make a few great friends, I also attracted tons of toxic ones and it's stressful and draining so I just decided to just be true to myself, and I have been happier and more at peace ever since. Most people misunderstand introverts and tend to be put off by our personality. It seems introverts are often perceived to be unfriendly, boring, shy, or snobbish but those who are more informed and try to connect would find that introverts are just calculating, equally daring but reserved, and definitely not shy. Shyness is NOT introversion.

I thought that their energy was amazing, and I thought that I would always stay an extrovert. However, once I got to middle school and high school, I realized that extroverts were just psychos. Is waking up at 7 in the morning and going to school at 8am for 5 days in a row not enough for you to realize that we're stuck with this routine for about 7 years of our lives, and that it can get exhausting? I learned this the hard way when I got to my freshman year of high school. Every single extrovert I came across was the exact same: they were doing too much too early, never knew when to shut up, always got in trouble because they didn't know how to behave themselves while doing quiet work, I can go on and on but I'm gonna stop here. It's just so repetitive and annoying.

What an amazing vocabulary, this man has a lifetimes worth of education and it shows.

People often feel you’re not an introvert because you’re not acting like an antisocial. You are engaging in conversations. However, being an introvert has different shades. I was insulted once because I said I am an introvert by someone close to me. It took a big hit on my mind and gaslighted me to question my perception about myself. I didn’t say an word to him (because I am an introvert). Today I came across this video and it was really comforting.

Look up Alan Watts sometime. You can never know who "you" really are. Because there isn't a real you. You cannot describe yourself in the now without relating yourself to what you have done in the past, or what your interests are -which are things you would rather be doing and goes around the question of describing who you are in the now. We all share that in common. Fun stuff to think about.

I score 97% on the extrovert scale, and Im still learning how to spend time alone. Being in class or thinking about class makes me super energized, Its hard to describe but I can feel waves of energy pulsating through me, especially if the teacher is asking a lot of questions. Means I get to interact. But being alone often gets depressing. I think solo travelling to NY for 3 days was super depressing eventho I met and hang out with 3-4 ppl in my hostel and did tours with them around Manhattan.
