I am not introvert but i can't be so free in a group and cant extrovert in front of all. When i am with two more friends and they started talking with each other, i used to get silent suddenly. I have tried a lot to be free and discuss with others in any topic but cant do that. Can any one advice me?

Thanks

I feel I am a little bit of both.

I'm definitely not shy and can be very assertive, but I feel mentally drained when I'm around a lot of people for several hours and have to balance myself out with some alone time.

That could be a limiting belief. When I'm out socializing and having fun I can't tell who's an introvert or an extrovert. Many introverts are outgoing, friendly, confident, and charismatic. While many extroverts are the opposite. And you can become more extroverted simply by practicing and enjoying socializing and being energized by being around other people.

I'm totally the opposite. I think I used to be rather shy, only talking alot with people I knew and was close to.

But now working from home, when I am out, I find myself being super extroverted with people I barely know. Maybe it's because I'm happy to be out of the house once in a while

Being an introvert person, some features matches with my personality. But i cant accept all characteristics of extrovert persons mentioned by 'sunconsultancy'. I think, no absolute comment can be made for any nature of person. Because human beings are always have distinct character with exceptions.

Sunconsultancy I agree with that energy thing. I display extrovert characteristics when I need to promote myself, give a lecture, network etc. But afterwards I feel drained of energy and need to spend time by myself to think things through and generate new ideas.

I'd say that I have met many more introverts in self-improvement than extroverts. I don't know if there is a conspiracy going on, but it seems that people who would rather analyze themselves comes out with the material to help the extroverts do the same.

But then again...Tony Robbins sounds like more of an extrovert...

I think the majority of people who are interested in internet marketing are introverts. Those extroverts are probably at the club or jumping out of a plane.

I'm an introvert, and I rather enjoyed jumping out of planes back in the day when I did such things.

It has it's own particular flavor of solitude.

I actually feel like I'm a balance of both these days. In my younger years I was much less out-going than I am now, and I was an extreme introvert. These days I don't really feel odd being open with people and conversing with random people on the street.

What about you? Do you think this has anything to do with success?

Your personality closely resembles mine. When I'm around people, I can talk, talk, talk. But... I also love living by myself. Enjoying the luxury of not talking to anyone for days.

Hmmm...

It really depends on the situation.

I think I will be what I have to be in my business, even if it is not my preference. I do prefer the company of my family (wife and kids) over others.

But I find that if I can help you or you can help me I can be outgoing in spurts.

On the WF I am becoming an extrovert. For the first time, there are lots of people like me, regardless of sex, race, creed, etc. I find commonality with. There are people who have already arrived; and there are people who are getting there like me.

Whereas some of my friends do not understand me offline; a great many understand me here. So if I can help someone, I won't hesitate to share my opinion even if I am rebuked.

One of the really cool things is that I can have friendships with women without them thinking that I am trying to hit on them. The absence of all of that office related cooked up silly-tense relationship stuff does not seem to exist here. I like that. That has been one of the coolest things about the WF and why I can't really go a day without it.

I can't really say I feel the same about twitter or facebook even though they fall into the necessary evil categories.

I'm more Extrovert very definitely but there are times when I need my 'solitude' to re-charge the batteries. Then woe betide anyone who disturbs me, I growl rather loudly, especially if asked 'are you in a bad mood?". No, I wasn't, until you started pestering me is my normal reply to that question

.

But I love people, have no problems whatsoever talking or listening, depending on the situation, never have any trouble starting a conversation with strangers and just love life, people and this world

I'm an introvert. But i don't call it introvert or shy; i say "being a good listener".

Warhol was an extremely shy person, but he endlessly went to art openings and parties; where inevitably he behaved shyly. It took a while, but eventually he met the right people who bought his art and hung it in the galleries.

There seems to be a lot of 'hybrids' here. Maybe introvert and extrovert are false dichotomies, and everyone is really a mixture of both but lean one way or the other (since there are obvious extreme examples of both)? That seems to be the case from the replies I've seen in this thread, anyway.

  An introvert is someone who tends to enjoy their own company more than the company of others. I am an introvert, and have no ambition to change that, there is no need Our society needs introverts and extroverts, and often introverts enjoy being with extroverts and vice versa.
  
  It is different to the question of shyness, which is more about fear of engaging with other people. An introvert may not talk to other people because they are not inclined to do so, rather than fear of consequences.

My older son was shy for most of his life but he did not have a problem participating in live basketball or football events. He was more of an introvert recently he took a Speech class at school and now I can't get him to be quiet. He is now more extroverted than introverted. I think personally I am introverted in my personal life but when it comes to my business I am very extroverted. I think like my son we all go through different stages.

However if I have to choose the side I guess introvert better describes me in most situations.

I'd say probably the opposite. People who are introverts are more likely to be drawn to careers that don't require a lot of face to face interaction. A job that allows you to work by yourself at a computer all day "self selects" people who perfer to spend time alone, in the same way that a job that requires you to go out and meet lots of people will tend to attract more extroverts.

I tend to be an introvert though again it depends on the situation. Among friends and in small groups I can be quite extroverted. However, once I'm in large group situations I become introverted and my energy seems to drain away. I'm trying harder to become a more balanced person. I don't think being an introvert or an extrovert will effect your success as an internet marketer. Not being face to face with others allows people to show their true nature without fear of reprisal. I may not be quick on my feet but the internet allows me more time to compose my thoughts to more effectively communicate with people.

  I'm an introverted extrovert, which is a really clever way of saying "I dunno."
  
  I've spoken in front of crowds of thousands, I was on "Wheel of Fortune," and I work in broadcast radio (which I love) with an audience over a quarter-million.
  
  All that is true, but I love coming home and holing up with a good book or my laptop for fun...that's what I would do if I had no other things I had to do.

Definitely an introvert... I like my own company but of course I love talking with my friends and ppl close to me. I think most ppl need a balance of both.. it's not good to always be by yourself.. and it's not good to be so dependant on other ppl that you need to be with someone or talking to someone at all times.

I guess it shouldn't surprise me that there are so many introverts in here.

I worked and continue to work hard to be a better
extrovert. It's a personal choice. I love the benefits
of being the first one to make conversation.

Extroverts can meet whomever they want. I meet
different kinds of people and hear all kinds of stories.

Being an extrovert allows you to explore more and
really step outside your comfort zone.

As an extrovert, I have far better choice in dating
women. Meeting business partners. And making new
friends.

Not to say that being introverted sucks, but it was
for me. I see no benefit in hiding in my shell and using
the word introvert as a personality trait. It seemed like
a cop-out to me, so I worked to change it.

The rush you get when you make conversation with
someone who's been around the world and back. Or
when you meet a millionaire. That makes being an extrovert
all worthwhile. It makes life fun.

I've been an introvert for most of my child hood, and
I always wanted to be like the kids who had all the friends,
relationships, and support. I got that, when I went out
ready to give of myself. Risking myself on the line to be
accepted or not...and getting such positive responses.

I love being extrovert

Thanks
