Chapter 2. Identify and Count on Your Introvert Strengths
"If summer resisted fall, it wouldn't really be summer or fall. Better to celebrate the season you're in...Especially those of your wonderful life." | ||

In some ways we are like a sailboat. A sailboat can have problems. These problems are like our weaknesses. There could be holes in the sails or, worse yet, holes in the boat. If any kind of hole in a sailboat is not patched up there will be trouble! Sailboats also have sails to manage their travels. Consider sails like our strengths. Sails get hoisted, trimmed, and deserve attention to be paid to how they are working and the condition they are in. If we don't pay attention to maximizing what the sails do, we can find ourselves not going anywhere, going slower than we want, or not at all.
In coming across this metaphor in my research online, it seems to be appropriate to the importance of counting on our introvert strengths...
