Tim Klabunde was doing a SMPS webinar on networking like an introvert. In preperation for this, he asked me if I was an introvert or an extrovert. 

It's hard to answer that question yourself. So I asked my coworkers and my wife thier opinion. I think my wife said it best when she said, "You are an introvert unless you are interested in the topic or person."

There are several technical terms for this. One of them is "jerk." The one I like to use is "focused."

I think everybody has a little introvert in them. Clearly, some more than others. But being an introvert or an extrovert shouldn't stop you from completing a task, networking, or anything else. You simply need to use these tendencies to your advantage.

Later that day I tweeted, "I'm not an extrovert, I just play one for a living."

From the response, it seems a lot of marketers feel the same way.

You have it spot on when you say, "You simply need to use these tendencies to your advantage." We can all DO these actions you mention but we have our preferences.

Like the conciseness of your post.
