- 1The writer’s education was different after her family moved.
Confidence coach, Marika Novotny, discusses the importance of quiet people. I moved to America soon after my thirteenth birthday. It was a big change. In the Czech Republic I used to go to a small school – there were 14 children in my class. In my American class there were 30, and there were over 1,000 kids at my school. It was so loud. Lunch times were especially difficult as the whole school ate in one large room. I was a quiet child, and my reaction was to become even quieter. In lessons, I used to pretend I couldn’t speak English (I could). I’m sure some of my teachers thought I was stupid (I’m not) and lonely (I wasn’t). The problem is that some of the most important places in life, such as classrooms and businesses, are designed for confident people. Quiet students are often told by teachers to ‘try harder’. It’s the same in offices. When any group of people has to
make a decision, the loudest opinion is usually selected. That might be the best opinion, of course – but it might not. In films and on social media, leaders are usually shown as loud and confident, proud of their opinions. Loud is successful, right? Wrong! In her book Quiet, Susan Cain gives examples of leaders and thinkers from history who were quiet, such as Gandhi and Charles Dickens. According to Cain, quiet business leaders are more creative and great at solving problems. Very confident leaders, on the other hand, might not share information or difficult problems – even when they need help. If you are a quiet person who wants to make their voice heard, what can you do? The most important thing is to take action. Decide to change a specific behaviour and then do it. For example, speak to someone you don’t know very well today. Research tells us that when we change our behaviour in small ways like this, it changes the way we actually think about ourselves. We do, in fact, start to become more confident. Practice is also very important. If you need to speak in front of an audience, practise out loud. Watch videos of other speakers. Ask a friend to listen to your talk. For me, I’ve gradually become more confident as I’ve grown up. A lot of that is thanks to my more confident husband. I still don’t have many friends, but that’s fine – my few friends are very important to me. And perhaps I am their important quiet person. Example: The writer moved to America as a teenager. A True v_ B False ☐ C Doesn't say ☐
