inward

When we turn our attention inward to make sense of our problems we don’t end up finding solutions, we end up ruminating, worrying, catastrophising.

Many of us turn our attention inward to come up with some narrative that explains our experiences in ways that give shape to our understanding of who we are, our identity.

When this happens, the star's core collapses under its own gravity with such a strong inward force that it squeezes nuclei and particles together violently.

Introversion and extraversion are terms first coined by psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung in Switzerland in the 1920s according to Jung an extravert seeks intensive contact with the outside world an introvert instead turns the psychic energy inwards.
