性格內向的人該如何愛自己

Introverts are undeniably unique people - and they are also undeniably difficult to understand. Some introverts are prone to self-deprecation, and they are often hard on themselves. We find ourselves questioning our own perception of ourselves - which can take us down a rabbit hole of negative thinking. What introverts really need is a reminder to love and care for themselves.

毫無疑問，性格內向者是獨特群體--也很難理解他們。有些內向者傾向于貶低自己，通常對自己很苛刻。我們發現我們會質疑自己對自己的看法--這會讓我們陷入負面思維的怪圈。內向者真正需要的是一個提醒，提醒他們愛自己、關心自己。

Lucky for introverts, one of our strengths is that we are good at making ourselves happy - if we take the time to! We don't depend on other people to bring us joy; we are able find joy within ourselves and in the little things around us. Here are some ways introverts can work to love themselves more.

內向者也很幸運，因為我們有一個優勢：擅長讓自己開心--如果我們愿意花時間的話！我們不依賴別人帶給我們歡樂；我們能從自身、從周邊的小事身上找尋快樂。下列這些方法可以幫助內向者更愛自己。

Take time for yourself.

給自己留點時間。

Alone time is precious to introverts. Because being alone allows us to recharge our batteries, and as a result, it then allows us to be our best selves once those "batteries" are charged. The easiest way to love yourself more is to be your best self, which can only happen for introverts when they take time for themselves.

對內向的人而言，獨自一人的時光十分寶貴。因為獨自一人能讓我們給自己充電，因此，一旦"電池"充滿，我們就能展現出自己最好的一面。愛自己最簡單的方式就是做最好的自己，而對于內向者而言，只有給自己留點時間，他們才能做最好的自己。

"In a relationship, one of the main ways to show love is to give them your time," says Redditor user technicolor camera. "That time that you could have for yourself is now spent with that person. You'll sacrifice your time and schedule in order to do things with them. If you were in a relationship, you'd want to respect the other person's time or want them to respect yours, wouldn't you? In the same way, to love yourself, give yourself your own time. It means loving and respecting yourself enough to take your time seriously. Don't waste your time away. Use it to do the things you want, to do the things that matter to you."

"在一段戀情中，表現愛意的主要方法之一就是花時間陪另一半，"Redittor用戶科技顏色相機說道。"那段你本來可以獨自一人享受的時光現在要和另一人共度了。你會犧牲自己的時間、配合另一半的時間、和她/他一起做事。如果你正在熱戀，你會尊重另一半的時間或是讓她/他尊重你的時間。這意味著只有足夠愛自己、關心自己才會認真對待自己的時間。請不要浪費自己的時間。用這段時間做些自己想做的事、做些對自己重要的事。"

Accept yourself.

接受自己。

Accept yourself as who you are: an introvert who is special and important. "Equanimity is the name of the game, which helps us to see things as they really are," says Reddit user el_drum. Introverts tend to blow things out of proportion, which means we end up exaggerating the meaning of good things or bad things.

接受真實的自己：特殊而又重要的內向者。"平靜十分重要，能幫助我們真正的看清事物，"Reddit用戶el_drum說道。內向者往往夸大其詞，這就是說我們會夸大美意或惡意。

It boils down to building a deeply felt sense that "I am enough."

總之就是要從內心深處自我感覺良好。
