4
The first thing that makes introverts attractive to others, this might be an obvious one, so let's get it out of the way first.
5
Introverts are mysterious.
6
This is simply by virtue of them being quiet.
7
When you don't say much, people don't know what's going on in your brain, and that creates mystery, that creates tension, which people are attracted to.
8
Number two, introverts are good listeners, or at least they appear to be good listeners,
9
because in a conversation, a one-on-one conversation, they prefer to not say as much,
10
and so that can come across as being a good listener, whether you are or not.
11
Everyone wants to feel like they are being heard, and introverts just naturally make people feel that way.
12
The number three thing is that by being quiet, it makes you seem powerful in a sense because in a conversation,
13
the person who says less tends to be the one who holds more power in
14
that dynamic simply because they're not expressing as much of what they're thinking.
15
A lot of these points you'll find go back to that whole thing of creating tension which creates attraction.
16
By the way, if you're enjoying this video, do me a favor, do me a solid and hit the like button.
17
Number four, this is gonna be controversial.
18
Introverts give themselves fewer chances to say annoying things or embarrass themselves in front of others,
19
which makes them seem less annoying overall.
20
The thing is, the human condition is to be annoying to other people.
21
As Jean-Paul Sartre said, hell is other people.
22
But extroverts, because they like talking, they like being out there, they're just going to say a lot more annoying things and embarrass themselves more often.
23
Introverts just naturally are able to protect themselves by not saying as much.
24
It makes people think this introvert has it together.
25
Number five, introverts are introspective, which means they have a lot of things figured out in life.
26
Because introverts like to spend a lot of time alone, what this means is that they have a lot more time to do internal processing,
27
to figure things out, whether it's about life, whether it's about themselves, their own emotions,
28
whether it's about other people or even simply a subject matter that they are interested in.
29
This is very attractive to other people because they perceive the introvert as being deep and thoughtful.
30
Number six, this is one you might be doing accidentally, but because introverts like to be alone, because they might not enjoy going out to parties,
31
they might turn down invitations to go out, it makes introverts look really cool.
32
You might think, oh, they might think I'm a loser because I don't like to hang out as much.
33
I like to be by myself.
34
But actually, a lot of times, other people project onto that that you have better things to do, that you're just too cool for them,
35
or that you are so good in and of yourself, the party is with you.
36
You can have a party by yourself.
37
People are really attracted to those who can go out on their own apart from the crowd and be okay with it.
38
The number seven thing, because introverts are choosy when it comes to social interaction, they're not just out there talking to everybody.
39
When an introvert engages with another person, that person feels special.
40
You yourself as an introvert might not think it's particularly meaningful, that they don't really care, but they're thinking to themselves,
41
this introvert here doesn't talk to many people and now they're talking to me.
42
They're listening to me.
43
This cool person, this mysterious person, they're engaging with me and people find themselves attracted to those who show interest in them.
44
Might I suggest a book to you?
45
You might get it on audio book, Quiet by Susan Cain, the power of introverts in a world that can't stop talking.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
