Introverted in an Extrovert Role

The other day I was explaining to Kay why I needed time to process content. Although I am seemingly extroverted, highly social and in “sales” for much of my career, I am actually an introvert.

In fact, Myers-Briggs reported back when I first took the test, that I am a HIGH introvert. I was in denial at first. I had worked so hard at being social, like my sister.

Well, I  guess I trained my authenticity right out of me, although I have learned to balance both. And like an introvert, I need time alone to decompress.

What’s uncanny is that I just read this article tonight, and I told Kay much of the same just last week.

What about you? Are you an introvert, extrovert or ambivert?
