ARE INTROVERTS OR EXTROVERTS BETTER

PSYCHOLOGY OUTSIDE THE BOX

I might as well give you the bad news right now. Referring to people as INTROVERTS or EXTROVERTS is wrong. It is a false dichotomy. Ambiverts who combine elements of both personality styles are far more common. If you read something that mentions introverts and extroverts, but not ambiverts, you are missing approximately 70% of people in the middle category. So anyone who refers to introversion and extroversion as a SIMPLE dichotomy, is just SIMPLE-MINDED, and is SIMPLY wrong. It’s as SIMPLE as that. In reality, MOST of us are ambiverts MOST of the time. And really, the ambivert’s ability to adjust his or her style to suit the situation makes a lot of sense.
