Are You A Highly Sensitive Person?

  • Summary

  • If you identify as introverted, anxious, empathic, neurotic, or easily overstimulated, you may be a ‘highly sensitive person’ - a term taken from the book by the same name.

    It promotes self-awareness and acceptance, as well as the reframing of those traits as a positive and necessary component of a healthy society. We need decisive people of action as well as a sensitive class of advisors to guide them. That way, the right stuff gets done.

    It also provides guidance on how to navigate the world as a highly sensitive person, and how to talk with those high in that trait. Reflective listening is offered as a way to validate the strong emotions of those around us, without falling into the trap of irrationally changing things only because of the impact of those emotions on our mental state.

    Take Action:
    For the next five minutes, think on replacing the your internal label of ‘anxiety’ with ‘sensitivity’, then ask, ‘what does the world need right now?’
