I second your opinion on introvert, I will say introvert is preference, it should not limit us, it's just we prefer being alone as a way to refuel our energy. To be successful, we need to be extroverting, means learning to be comfortable being extrovert, it may not all the time, but at the times when it's necessary for us. I do see that you must be experienced on that, as you have to do presentation and socialize with your clients. Looking forward to learn from you to do "extroverting" =) Really appreciate your comments! Robert Hi Gloria, thanks for visiting!

However, it is just a generalized label, one we can acknowledge and be aware of, to assist us in knowing what startegies we need to use in certain circumstances. However, it is not to take on any more importance than that. I do a lot of public presentations, as I love to share my knowledge and experiences to help people. I also know that after such an event, the way I need to recharge my batteries is to have quiet time away from people for a while. The amount of time will depend on the circumstances. After a presentation, if I need to socialize with clients, all I need is 15 minutes and I can go back and be with a crowd of people, because I have meditated and given peace to my inner being. A label is just to alert us, it is not to limit us. It is our choice whether we decide to allow certain beliefs to decellerate our growth or we accept total responsibiity for whom we are Great posting and I really enjoy your blog, Thank you Gloria Hello Robert,

It shows the other person that you are interested in them and will encourage them to return the interest in you and what you have to say – a rule of reciprocity. Additionally, the “habit of asking” is a demonstration a lifelong dedication to learning, which is an important foundation for leadership.
