infographics
This factor will depend a lot on whoever creates the infographic, uses images known by as many people as possible.
Instead of spending a lot of time informing yourself through long texts, audios and/or videos, infographics condense the information and, as a result, the message is transmitted in a very agile way.
Because when it comes to communicating with images, it’s easy to convey the message you want unequivocally (this will depend on our expertise in choosing the most appropriate images shared by the common imagination).

INTROVERSION AND SHYNESS
they are not the same
I wanted to make an infographic about Introversion and Shyness, from which we can extract some interesting data:
- Introversion and Shyness are not the same thing (although they are often equated).
- First onte is innate, while the second is acquired.
- Introversion, depending on how it is treated in childhood and/or adolescence, can often end up becoming Shyness.
- Both personality tendencies are not bad by themselves, they are only bad if they cause us suffering.
- Shy people (especially in adolescence) suffer both physical and psychological effects.
- It is good to keep in mind that in adolescence, when the only thing we want is to fit in (or the most important thing) is when we suffer the most from Shyness. However, in the vast majority of cases, it is mitigated or even disappears (and like all suffering, when observed with perspective, it brings us many lessons).
----> This does not mean that the False are wrong (there is no right and wrong).
----> The way to interpret the results is this:
from 0 to 7 true: Extrovert/a
from 8 to 15 true: Ambiverted
from 16 to 25 true: Introverted
NO-VERBAL COMMUNICATION
don't let'em take your place away
Based on @soniaelhakim‘s talk at @tedxruzafa, “NON-VERBAL COMMUNICATION, don’t let them take your place away.”
We see that, compared to verbal, non-verbal communication is the one that provides more information (prevailing in case of inconsistencies).
There are many ways to communicate without words.
Some are:
- Body position
- Distribution of our belongings
- Physical appearance and odor
- Smile (also with the eyes)
- Listen (and show you do)
- Adaptation (without mimicry)
- Be consistent (what we say and how we do it shall be aligned)
As @peterdruckerbr says, “the most important thing in communication is hearing what isn’t said.”
HANDS
emphasize what you say
Hands are a perfect complement when it comes to communicating. And there are many gestures that help us communicate different messages. To emphasize what we say
Some of them:
Strength, celebration
Small, little
Stop, standstill
Please / thank you
And so, many others (some of which you can see in this infographic).
I extracted the information from the video of the former architect and current scholar of human nature, Roger Velásquez @lasmilpuertas.ig
THE LOOK
impossible not to communicate
If non-verbal communication is the type of communication that provides the most information, the LOOK is, within non-verbal communication, the most eloquent. 👁️🗨️
It’s the one that provides us with the most information, and has become even more important due to the use of face masks (which only leave the eyes visible).
There are various types of look:
- Business / power
- Social
- Intimate
And it can give us away, letting show things that we would prefer to keep to ourselves… Not in vain, it is known as the mirror of the soul.

Not all are LOGOTYPES
Infographic made from this Brandemia post that deals with a very interesting topic and that usually causes a lot of confusion. It is about the term logo and how we commonly use it to name the different possible variants within the Corporate Identity.
Actually, we could distinguish 4 large well-differentiated groups: logo, isotype, imagotype and isologo.
The 10 characteristics of DIFFERENT THINKERS
In this occasion, the information is extracted from the book Difference by Bernadette Jiwa, where she talks about the characteristics shared by Different Thinkers, that is, those who think differently (outside the box). As I read it, I found this list of 10 characteristics of Different Thinkers very interesting and immediately thought it would be a good idea for an infographic.
