Memes are now an essential component of the online world and are known to circulate rapidly across various social media platforms. However, what exactly is it about memes that makes them so catchy and easily shareable? Bradley E. Wiggins, Ph.D., an Associate Professor and Department Head of Media Communications at Webster Vienna Private University and author of the book “The Discursive Power of Memes in Digital Culture”, has previously told Bored Panda that memes are usually short and easy-to-share content that incorporate humor, making them highly relatable to the subject matter depicted in the meme. “Memes that reflect or reject certain ideological aspects become part of the larger online experience and can serve to reinforce one’s preconceived notions about a particular issue.”
As is evident from the memes, being an introvert can be challenging at times, not only while navigating social interactions at work or school, but also online. Social media can be overwhelming for introverted individuals who prefer solitude because such platforms are often designed to encourage constant engagement. Introverts can also find social interaction intimidating due to their concerns about their self-image. According to Joanna Rawbone, MSc, a training consultant and founder of ‘Flourishing Introverts’, introverts who have worked on themselves to the point of being less worried about what others think of them are more able to lead themselves and others successfully. “We’re not for everyone, and everyone is not for us. Overthinkers take note and I should know, I used to be one!”
If you identify as an introvert, it's important to embrace your personality and not feel pressured to change to fit societal norms. However, there are strategies that can help you build confidence and allow you to ‘flourish’. Joanna Rawbone’s favorite definition of flourishing comes from Dr. Lynn Soots: “Flourishing is the product of the pursuit and engagement of an authentic life that brings inner joy and happiness through meeting goals, being connected with life passions, and relishing in accomplishments through the peaks and valleys of life.”
If I don't know the number, I'm not answering. If it's important, leave a message.
“Flourishing is a journey, not a destination, a choice we make moment by moment, so being able to measure and appreciate progress is essential. And because life is filled with ups and downs, we provide tools that enable resilience, build authentic confidence and develop a powerful presence. My years of enabling my own flourishing and helping my introverted clients to flourish have resulted in a 3-phase approach that starts with owning your introversion and your inherent strengths. Too many introverts, worn down by years or decades of being told to be different, have had them think that introversion is a hindrance in life. It doesn’t have to be this way,” Joanna Rawbone shared.

I think some people have to understand that introverts are human beings too
Then when I think it is clear, I get stopped by a different neighbor.
There isn't a period of time in someone's life that is just automatically the best. Everyone has their time, some parts of life are just bad but there is more to it. You have an entire life to live, so many more opportunities and experiences.
I don’t either… my professor once forgot him mic on and went round screaming at his kids. It was a mindfulness class, btw.
I stopped the complaining ages ago, oh the freedom that gave me. Now, where did I put my snacks and drink?
I don't want to know how bad things are, if THEY start showing up!
Need a drink for confidence boost, maybe a second. Now I'm comfy and good to stay home😊
I did...I really did. I especially liked that I could sit alone at work or drive alone (no traffic was a plus).
I have an ongoing story with dozens of characters, a whole fantasy world an all going on for about 18 years now. Whenever I'm bored I go to that place for a little fun
*Little crackling sound as the needle hits the groove of he fourty-five on the porta-turntable. Music starts* … “My house in he middle of my street, my house – that is where I use to sleep, my house is my castle and my keep … (da capo al fine)” — Original lyrics of «Our House» by the London-based ska revival band Madness, slightly altered). ;^)
This is only true in groups. With only one friend, I can talk like frikkin crazy about everything and nothing
I'm quiet AND I have a very quiet voice. No chance for me
Usually, as soon as I pluck up the courage to ask, it's right in front of my nose
Me: STFU I DON'T CARE IF YOUR MY MANAGER. . . Also me: "Sorry, I didn't catch that"
our teacher forces all members to go up. me: rushes through the part i have to say
Me with my middle school sister's drama with boys and her friends
Few years ago I had a favorite restaurant, once I walked in and the woman at the counter said "number 15 hold the veggies?" Never went there again.
This is why I'm single. I'm genuinely happy alone, and I don't like meeting new people and getting to know them. So there's really no motivation or need for me to date either. I'm not *against* having relationship, but there's no reason for me to specifically want it either.
I applaud you who don't really have the strenght or the energy to get out of bed but doing so anyways! Sometimes just waking up is such an achievement that's worth celebrating.
Just because I like being alone, it doesn't necessarily mean I don't like you.
I used to always vote for the most extroverted person. I'll prepare everything...once they do the talking.
Omg that is me, im a freak over my teeth, i even cut any sugary beverages. My teeth are like 90% fine, i need to get a snall cavity removed and i actually chickened out the day i was supposed to. I had a mental breakdown
Especially when the people aren't the type of people you can hang out with.
Is it weird that I've always wanted to sleep in the clouds, like the picture?
It's much easier to just use filters, no need to bother with applying real makeup. I hate how they make my narrowish even slimmer, though
BP once again conflating introversion, social anxiety, and shyness. Once again, these are not the same thing.
Hey BoredPanda Staff, do you review and edit articles before you post them? Introversion does not mean social anxiety, shyness, and never wanting to leave your home. Many introverts do leave their homes, have a number of hobbies and play sports, hang out with friends in smaller groups, but just need time to recharge. These memes seem to be more about agoraphobia an depression. Christ, I'm not even an introvert and it's sad that I have to write this!
