I am a quietly strong person and do not advertise my presence like an extrovert would, but could happily do public speaking etc.<br />Great post!<br /><br />Molly xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798372697599428727.post-20671585369766277782013-09-21T18:15:32.954+02:002013-09-21T18:15:32.954+02:00Exactly Jonathan.

Hence, why there is so much misunderstanding - very different needs. An introvert is not necessarily shy. An introvert could make a career from public speaking.... <br />Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts!Amanda van Mulligenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17328016562973171711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798372697599428727.post-88705056365868388722013-09-21T15:57:49.553+02:002013-09-21T15:57:49.553+02:00I think that you make a lot of really good points ...I think that you make a lot of really good points here about the benefits of being an introvert. Both introverts and extroverts possess attributes that should be valued.<br /><br />I remember learning a while ago about how being shy and being an introvert don't necessarily go together. I've often considered myself shy but when I did a Myers-Briggs test a few years ago I came up as a clear extrovert. Apparently this can be to do with valuing being with others over being alone, even if you're a bit nervous about speaking to new people etc. (...well I think that was the explanation anyway).<br /><br />JonathanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
