How to Go from Introvert to Extrovert

If you're an introvert, how do you balance the introvert and extrovert parts of yourself, such that you enjoy both types of activities equally, rather than looking forward to one and dreading the other? If you’re very introverted, you may undervalue the positive role people can play in your life, such as knowledge, friendship, growth, laughter, and so on. The optimal outcome is to strike a balance between the two and become an ambivert, or someone who enjoys social interaction and solitude equally.

Uncluttered public speaking

I’m sure we’ve all attended memorable presentations — some are memorable because they inspire, others because they’re awful.

How to Accept Criticism With Grace and Appreciation
