Am a "severe" (I get the wrong usage) introvert, don't get Extroverts one bit.

33. I've been called both, at different times. I'm grateful for both personality types, and I think we all

can be either at different times. It's important to avoid applying negative labels to either type. Especially with people we don't know really well. We can make a lot of wrong assumptions applying labels.

Including about ourselves, if we decide we're in one group or the other and let that guide what we do in the future. We can end up closing off possibilities that way. That's especially important when we're young. But since we can keep learning and enjoying new experiences no matter how old we are, it helps to be open to trying new things even if they don't automatically fit what we or others think of as "our type" - whether it's someone who always thought of themselves as an extrovert trying a quiet solo retreat, or someone who always thought of themselves as an introvert going to a party they might normally have never considered.

People have amazing potential.
