In this video, we breakdown two unique self-mastery characteristics of Batman which are inextricable from his introverted nature and help explain his incredible exercise of self-control and self-discipline.

Batman is the paragon of self-mastery. Given that he's the most human of all super-heroes, we can draw valuable lessons from the qualities he embodies, many of which arise from his introversion.

1️⃣ Characteristic One — Emotional Mastery

Batman has an elevated emotional sensitivity which means he feels intensely. He experiences emotions such as sorrow, grief, anger and rage profoundly to the point it can be almost all-consuming.

Batman’s emotional mastery means that he empowers himself to feel every single emotion he experiences, letting them seep deep into his bones, the loss, the anger, the desire for vengeance. But he doesn’t permit those dark emotions to dominate his decisions and actions. He has the emotional mastery to fight monsters without becoming one.

2️⃣ Characteristic Two — Avoids the Light

Batman avoids the light and seeks the dark. He’s altruistic, not egotistic. Batman doesn’t seek the limelight; he has no desire for public recognition or gratitude. He’s not motivated by glory or reputation. Batman has cultivated an almost complete immunity to the need for external validation or approval.

The remarkable consequence of this quality is that Batman’s confidence emanates from a fire within, which only he can extinguish.
