I like how easily you put it all together Sumudu!

It took me a long time to realize how much of an introvert I am. I spent years working in professions that required me to be in the spotlight from sales positions to marketing to public speaking. But even then I always found myself retreating back into my own corner as soon as the work was done.

It was only after careful introspection (years later) that I realized that this was, because I enjoyed and valued my alone-time -- however rare that was.

One of the key signs for me was that it always felt like I had to summon all of my energy in order to get myself up on a stage or in front of a mic or camera. And this became extremely exhausting the more I did it.

It took me a long time to realize that I was an introvert masquerading as an extrovert, because that is what the industry and society was expecting of me.

In either case, thank you for sharing this, I think this is a difficult conversation for many to have and even harder for some to accept. I am sure this will help many people feel more comfortable with their true selves and that is worth it!

As an Introvert I can relate to this 100%!

I've tried severally to stay more extroverted most of the time but I truly enjoy being an introvert in the end.

To cut the story short, everything you said here is true. Thanks for sharing
