Not everyone agrees on the labels and the definitions of introvert and extrovert - or ambivert.

What are your thoughts?

I’ve observed many make the choice emotionally - what they think makes them more appealing instead of “how they recharge”

What would be fascinating is to do an experiment with 100 people who equally identify as introvert or extrovert, then have them adhere to the traditional definition of how you recharge. Do it on a daily basis - focus on “how do I show up” after recharging like the definition.

For those reading and not familiar - introverts recharge alone, extroverts recharge with people.

It would be fascinating how they may see themselves differently after operating from that space.

Oh that's interesting. Feels like a PhD coming on..... I wonder the experiment would also yield definitions of points along the spectrum between highly introvert and highly extrovert

That and I find when giving clients these experiments, they learn how to listen to their bodies better and in doing so they get more honest feedback and make better decisions.
