00:00:00.000 30 seconds.
00:00:22.280 I'm Patrick Bedeby, host of Valuetainment.
00:00:24.220 Today we're going to talk to all the introverts.
00:00:26.320 All the introverts who think, I don't think I can be an entrepreneur.
00:00:30.040 Today we're going to talk about why you may be the best kind of entrepreneurs out there.
00:00:34.700 All right, so let's get right into it.
00:00:36.020 So introverts, if you're an introvert, today it's all about you.
00:00:39.720 And I know introverts love attention.
00:00:41.680 They love compliments.
00:00:42.980 They love it when we give them all the attention, don't they?
00:00:45.220 As a matter of fact, what they don't like is introverts kind of want to be left alone a
00:00:49.200 little bit.
00:00:49.820 But let's dissect how introverts are from my experiences as well as reading some papers
00:00:54.300 on this.
00:00:54.680 Number one, they have zero problem with other egos coexisting with them.
00:01:00.460 Very comfortable.
00:01:01.560 They can work in an environment and people with big personalities, big, big egos, massive
00:01:06.300 egos have a very comfortable time working with them.
00:01:09.000 Wozniak worked with Jobs.
00:01:11.000 Jobs had a massive personality.
00:01:12.680 Wozniak was an introvert, but it worked out very well.
00:01:14.620 Number two, they lead from back.
00:01:16.860 When you lead from back, they allow other leaders to be developed, which means for them, leadership
00:01:22.720 development, which is a big part of building a big company, comes very easy.
00:01:26.460 Because so many people get the credit when they're working around them.
00:01:29.900 They don't need all the credit.
00:01:31.300 So when this happens, people's identity around them is always elevating when you work with
00:01:35.660 an introvert.
00:01:36.180 Number three, they're comfortable being alone.
00:01:38.280 And this edge that they have on being comfortable being alone allows them to be patient, calm,
00:01:42.620 and focused more.
00:01:43.460 Because a lot of time when you start a business or you're a salesperson, if you can't be comfortable
00:01:48.740 being alone, you can't do proper research, you can't be focused on your next project,
00:01:54.760 you sometimes overwhelm yourself with non-existing issues where they're okay in that area because
00:01:59.840 they enjoy their own company.
00:02:01.100 Number four, great listeners, which means they ask the right questions.
00:02:05.120 And if they ask the right questions, they end up solving the right problem that optimizes
00:02:09.080 the chances of increasing the company.
00:02:10.900 So it's the right questions they ask that leads to the right answers.
00:02:13.880 Number five, they do well with extroverts.
00:02:16.280 You're going to want to do well with extroverts.
00:02:17.900 Introverts have no problem doing well with them.
00:02:19.720 Because to them, they look at extroverts and say, oh wow, I can never be like that person.
00:02:24.480 It'd be great to team up with them.
00:02:25.880 That's how they look at it, if I can team up with an extrovert.
00:02:28.600 Because people can co-exist with them, they have an easy time doing good with extroverts.
00:02:33.480 This is why they end up finding people like Jobs.
00:02:35.120 Number six, more logical, which means they're rational, which means risk is not like the
00:02:42.040 crazy biggest risk they'll take.
00:02:44.120 They'll be a little bit more methodical about their next move they're making because they're
00:02:47.300 rational, logical.
00:02:49.000 They're better thinkers, typically, these introverts.
00:02:51.000 Number seven, since they're not the center of attention, they see things others don't,
00:02:56.780 meaning body language.
00:02:57.760 So imagine you're sitting in a room, and introverts are typically just kind of sitting there quiet.
00:03:01.680 They're not really talking, saying anything.
00:03:03.060 Everybody else is talking, pitching their ideas, all this other stuff.
00:03:06.980 And 95% of the time, they're not doing anything.
00:03:09.140 And when they are talking, they're typically asking a question.
00:03:11.560 So guess what they learned?
00:03:12.680 They officially learned about everybody in a room.
00:03:15.760 Seven people gave answers.
00:03:17.080 They learned who doesn't like who.
00:03:18.500 They learned who's trying to get what from who.
00:03:20.400 They learned who's the most influential person here.
00:03:22.320 They learned who's full of it.
00:03:23.540 They learned who's not respected in the room.
00:03:25.060 But they learned about everything in the room because they see things that others don't see
00:03:29.240 because they do not need to be the center of attention.
00:03:31.240 Number eight, they're more trusting.
00:03:32.980 Anytime you deal with an introvert, you typically trust them more.
00:03:35.760 So it's easier to raise money, easier to sell something, easier to get people to want to
00:03:39.740 team up with you because you're trusting.
00:03:41.480 Number nine, overly prepared because they look at things and say, we know what if that happens,
00:03:46.980 and what if this happens, and what if that happens, and what if this happens, what if
00:03:49.440 this happens?
00:03:50.020 Okay, great.
00:03:50.660 As long as I have this kind of stuff in place because they don't like to be humiliated because
00:03:54.260 they're overly prepared.
00:03:55.660 Great.
00:03:56.220 I'm scored away because they're typically overprepared.
00:03:59.080 All right, so last but not least, they're also very self-motivated because they sit
00:04:02.640 there.
00:04:02.900 Once they get clear on what they want to do, they may be a little bit more technical.
00:04:07.040 They may be a little bit slower on making their decisions.
00:04:09.880 But once they do, you don't need to motivate them.
00:04:13.000 They're going to figure out a way to get the job done because they don't want being alone
00:04:15.640 to solve problems.
00:04:16.800 They're pretty logical and rational in the next step process they come up with, and they're
00:04:20.540 typically self-motivated.
00:04:21.560 So having said that, today's episode was to introverts.
00:04:23.680 This is you, and you have a very high chance of winning because you're in great community
00:04:27.780 with people like Gates, Einstein, Zuck, Buffett, Musk, Seuss, George Washington, and many other
00:04:32.960 names.
