Have you ever wondered why silent people are successful? One of the psychology theories that divides humans into two types of personality is based on how they get their energy. One who gets their energy from being on the outside and socializing is called an extrovert. While one who gets their energy from alone time is called an introvert. How does extraversion and introversion correlate with success? Some of the qualities of a successful person are often associated with an extroverted person. Especially in a field which requires more public speaking and networking, however some of the most successful and influential people in the world are introverts. There are a bunch of successful silent people such as Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Albert Einstein. Here is the reason why silent people are successful:

#1 They are great planners:

1. silent people often need more time to process information in their heads, that is the reason why they do not talk much

2. with the ability to think things through it makes them great planners

3. they will come up with several scenarios in their heads because they don’t see a reason why a person should talk much, unless it’s necessary

4. to succeed in any field one needs to create plans and execute them, this requires a lot of thinking and it would not be done by talking alone

#2 They are good listeners:

1. a person will not instantly become successful, it will take a lot of advice and improvement to finally succeed on their quest

2. to be able to receive advice well one needs to be a good listener

3. this doesn’t necessarily mean people who love to talk more are not good listeners, it is more because silent people often let others talk first, so they receive more feedback to help them succeed

#3 They are very creative:

1. silent people prefer to spend more of their time within their heads instead of talking to people

2. during their alone time they often generate ideas and theories that result in creative work

3. creativity is important to manage a business, since customers often prefer variety

4. the reason why some silent people are successful is that they use their creativity to create and enhance their business

#4 They choose their words carefully:

1. If you want to be successful but are afraid of people judging you for being a quiet person there is a great aspect of people who prefer silence

2. a good communicator is not exclusive to those who like to talk

3. silent people tend to speak less than others but once they do its granted that they have weighed their words carefully

4. choosing the right words and emphasizing the important message is more tactful to persuade a prospective business client

5. as a quiet person you spend more time deciding what to say and what you should not say

#5 They are great observers:

1. a situation where one person does the talking and the other just stays in the background, means it’s likely for the latter to notice their surroundings more

2. in a business it is important to observe the targeted market by using cues

3. silent people are successful since they are apt to their surroundings

4. they can see a pattern and use it for their next move

5. being a good observer also serves as an advantage if you work in a field that requires a lot of strategies

#6 They keep only the best people:

1. introverts are likely more selective in their social circle

2. they don’t mind having only a few friends and confidants, but they know they can count on them

3. if you are an introvert you prefer quality over quantity

4. therefore despite being a quiet person networking is still possible, the difference of networking between silent people and the loud ones is the relationship is often premeditated

5. an introvert businessman knows who he should associate himself with it helps to create both meaningful and beneficial relationships

#7 They know their priorities:

1. silent people may not be the most fun at parties but they know their priorities

2. why some silent people are successful is that they know where they stand and they stick to their beliefs

3. for example a person who focuses on a food and beverage industry, knows that this is their priority before expanding their business to an unrelated field

4. a consistent effort and right priorities are more likely to result in success

#8 They can gain trust easily:

1. while being a trusted person may not have anything to do with how someone gets their energy, it is understandable that others think that silent people are more trustworthy

2. not talking all the time is also a sign of good self-control

3. they know that some things are better left unsaid especially if it deals with confidential information

#9 They are self-aware:

1. another reason why silent people are successful is they are aware of their ability and their shortcomings

2. they know that every startup will not skyrocket in an instant

3. as a result they are likely to follow a program to improve themselves and to fill the gap of their floors with other qualities

4. self-awareness is not to be mistaken with being self conscious

5. being self-aware means they know they lack something but instead of whining about it they seek a solution to make the best of their flaws

#10 They have good self control:

1. as stated before silent people tend to have good self control

2. being self-aware and focusing on a single thing means they don’t over indulge themselves in stuff that will not benefit them

3. with this quality some silent people are successful because they know what they should do and what they should not do

4. they focus on their productivity instead of just pleasing people

Conclusion:

Being a choir in a loud world can be tough but once silent people know their worth, the world will change with them. The key is to know and to utilize these qualities. Silent people have many qualities as mentioned above that will help them to be successful. Their abilities to think deeply to know when to speak and to observe are some reasons why silent people are successful more than they expect to be. Hopefully by learning the good side of being an introvert it will help the silent people out there to start making an actual change and to become successful;)
