“Mindset” is a meme.
Is positive mindset a meme?

That user is just insecure, probably an introvert himself. His insistence on extroversion is just an excuse get people to expose their vulnerabilities, making them easier to criticize and demoralize, literally bringing them down to his level. It's just his way of coping for his own flaws.
Evan Rodriguez
Some "how to be successful" types of books, actually most of them, state as one of the important things to be nice to people and not to judge people and other characteristics of a generally nice person with good manners.

My brother in law is a introverted sociopath and he is the most evil mother fucker I have ever met.
Absolutely no conscience what so ever. My sister will never be free of him either because she bred with the asshole.

Positive thinking can even slow down cancer from killing you

Don't know about that - I mean in terms of face-to-face business, sure it's probably a benefit to treat people nicely so that they'll want to deal with you again and to establish a network/connection.
That's only one part of it though, and likely an insignificant part since most people can be replaced. Most important to see yourself as a winner, a "YES I CAN" attitude. If you're depressed or miserable or angry and self-deprecating you're going to have a rough time succeeding. Better to be the guy with the 5" dick walking around like you've got a 12" rather than throwing a tantrum about your shitty genetics that you have no power to change; get my point? the energy you spend focusing on the negative side is wasted, whereas the energy spent on the positve side, even if it's just boisterous, arrogant energy can and often will lead to success. It's the classic fake it until you make it approach.

i don't think you guys know what sociopathy means. all it means is simply the incapability/suppression of emotional empathy. an introvert is perfectly capable of being a sociopath, but may use cognitive empathy(it is possible to be a good-willed sociopath with this) to compensate just like any other sociopath. the only reason why it seems like a meme is because introverts simply aren't even going to interact with you to let you know they're sociopaths unlike extroverts.

Oh, I'm aware and I have several of these Cluster B pieces of shit in my life.
The point is that sociopaths tend to be too excitable to be able to execute introspective thought on a regular basis. They get bored really easily without plenty of excitement around.
It's not that it's impossible for there to be sociopathic introverts, it's just that their diagnosis will probably align more with covert malignant narcissism or, for the truly calculating, psychopathy. Not that there's really much of a difference, both sociopathy and psychopathy get lumped into Antisocial PD.
And yes, some sociopaths even lead somewhat virtuous lives as they realize they can get what they want out of people by being "nice" to them. As you say, cognitive empathy. Few have that kind of self-control though.

That's something else. Positive mindset is something like
> You can do it with the right attitude!

That's a bit the problem I think you guys have. It's not, it won't be painful. It will take from you and you're hoping it's worth it, but you're thinking in terms of having it already. You're moving but you can't take everything you have to the other side, Basically, there's going to be a cost. Let's say I'm the best bottlemaker in the world and I'm super autistic about it. I'm not even doing it for the money, I just want to make the best bottle possible, the one nobody has made before but always existed in my mind, it's just that everybody was too busy doing other things to make the bottle real. That would "consume" my life. Maybe in people, maybe in health, maybe in kindness towards people that don't make bottles or something. Maybe you'll say something about bottles that some bottlemaker or not bottlemaker hears and makes them burn your house. Once you made that bottle, your raw autism would let you see a new bottle or make you find the best bottle where to put things that come from your dick ot write a record about bottles for the next guys. But there's not an "I rest" moment. That's why most people don't get rich making bottles, everybody's fine with just the second best bottle. The best bottle is a gift to the world and the world gifts you.
Now, if you're lucky and gifted, maybe that autism won't make the experience that painful. Maybe you will enjoy every step of the process, that's a bit the lie and the cope, but I accept there may be some level of vocation or calling or whatever. But in most cases it makes you happy there are other things in the world besides bottles, like people and maybe even money, that's only worth something to buy food and bottles and shit like that. Also
> You can't make a better bottle
Can lead most people into positive mindset, but it can make them give up.
