HOW TO CARE FOR AN EXTROVERT

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 15:12:17 -0400

Respect their need to share, to ‘talk it out.’ They get their energy from other people.
Just as with introverts, never embarrass them in public. If you do embarrass them in public, go along as much as is reasonable if they play it off like a joke.
Don’t be surprised if they dive into a new situation headfirst. Don’t freak out either if they flounder a little. They’ll find their way.
Extroverts blurt. It’s the nature of the beast. Most try to leaven it with charm, but try to be patient when they don’t.
Expect interruptions that may seem rude, to some. Most of the time, they mean well.
Build surprise into your lives together. Most extroverts love the thrill of not knowing what’s up - as long as it’s positive.
Be prepared for what looks like ADD. The organically outgoing among us feed off the environment around them. They are often the best multi-taskers around, so understand that they are often paying much more attention to you than you think they are.
A flashover temper goes with the extroverted personality. The bad thing is it can look like a much more severe storm than it is. The good thing is it’s over quickly.
Many extroverts live for the intuitive leap. They reach for it. If teaching an extrovert something new, have patience with them jumping ahead of you.
They will always have lots of friends. But most extroverts have a core of best friends, and their loyalty can be fierce and aggressive if they feel the need to defend those friends. As with so many aspects of the extroverted personality, you may have to be patient with this.
They love compliments, but can usually see right through insincere flattery. Well-timed encouragement, though, can help an extrovert soar.
Sometimes, it’s okay to just go along with the “show.” Consider it free entertainment.
Respect their extroversion. Don’t try to pin them to your board or cage them. And do them a favor, if you are not yourself outgoing, extroverted - gently butpersistentlyremind them to read something likethisas often as possible. They probably will need the reminders.

“Human beings can’t help it: we need to belong. One of the most powerful of our survival mechanisms is to be part of a tribe, to contribute to (and take from) a group of like-minded people. We are drawn to leaders and to their ideas, and we can’t resist the rush of belonging and the thrill of the new. … We want to belong not to just one tribe, it turns out, but to many. And if you give us tools and make it easy, we’ll keep joining. Tribes make our lives better. And leading a tribe is the best life of all.”

- Tribes by Seth Godin (Swiss miss)

“The act of feeling frustrated is an essential part of the creative process. Before we can find the answer — before we can even know the question — we must be immersed in disappointment, convinced that a solution is beyond our reach. We need to have wrestled with the problem and lost. Because it’s only after we stop searching that an answer may arrive.”

- Jonah Lehrer on the importance of frustration in the creative process, live-illustrated by Guggenheim Fellow Flash Rosenberg. (via explore-blog)

Loft Resumes! Great for non-designers! But this does offer some inspiration for all ;)

However, do read from the source because there are some great comments that would say that this service isn’t sincere. There’s two sides, but either way you look at it this service would truly be helpful to someone looking for work in this economy.
