The Introvert Advantage
How to Thrive in an Extrovert World
Marti Olsen Laney, Psy.D.
WORKMAN PUBLISHING • NEW YORK
Dedication
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a gift and not giving it.
—William A. Ward
To my husband of thirty-eight years, Michael, who dragged me out into extroverting and enlarged my universe. I dedicate this book to you for coaching me to keep breathing through the long labor of the book birthing process. And you are awarded the Highest Medal of Husbandry Honor for devoting so many hours to read page after page about introverts (more than any mortal extrovert should ever have to). Last, but not least, a final thank-you for delivering nourishing meals to me as I sat staring and pecking at my computer.
To my daughters and their families, whom I love very much and who have enriched my life in countless ways:
Tynna, Brian, Alicia, and Christopher DeMellier
Kristen, Gary, Kaitlin, and Emily Parks
I also dedicate this book to all of my clients who have courageously let me into their lives.
Acknowledgments
I would like to thank everyone I’ve met in my life.
—Maureen Stapleton
It takes a lot of midwives to birth a book. I would like to thank my dear friend Valerie Hunter, for knowing I could write before I did. Sylvia Cary, for confirming I was pregnant with a book idea and giving me invaluable feedback about the neonate. My agent, Andrea Pedolsky, for recognizing the possibilities in the book proposal and her ongoing encouragement throughout the elephantine labor. Peter Workman and Sally Kovalchick, who were aware that introverts needed a book to be born about them. My editors, Margot Herrera and Kitty Ross, for combing through my right-brained manuscript and untangling snarls with their left-brained minds. Tia Maginni, who must have ESP to be able to decode the arrows, cross-outs, and smudged ink on the manuscript. Thank you to all those at Workman Publishing, for laboring until the book was born.
A special thank-you to all those introverts I interviewed for this book. I would also like to thank all the dedicated scientists and researchers in the many fields who strive to help all of us to understand the “simply complex” humans we are.
