Journal Notes

If you believe you have an extrovert personality, then you'll love the information to follow because it will ring true with you!

First off, here are a few questions for those readers who believe you are an extrovert:

Do you really enjoy meeting new people?

When you are at a social event, do you find yourself feeling energized and more alive?

Well, most extroverts will answer yes to those two questions.  We've discussed the introvert personality trait in our previous Session, and we've also gone over a few differences between the introvert and the extrovert personalities.

Important Note:  What Exactly Is an Extrovert?
On the positive side, extroverts are often described as talkative, sociable, action-oriented, enthusiastic, friendly, and out-going.  On the negative side, they are sometimes described as attention-seeking, easily distracted, and unable to spend time alone.

For your Journal notes, please add in that there is a five-factor model of personality traits.  According to this model, personality is made up of five broad dimensions.  Each dimension, including extroversion/introversion, exists on a continuum.  While some people may tend to be at the extreme end of either side of the continuum, most people are somewhere in the middle.

This was shared in 2014, and written by Caitlin Corsetti.

Caitlin talks about how extroverts tend to identify with the following...

1.  Jump into Leadership Roles;
2.  Being alone zaps the extrovert's energy;
3.  Being put into groups energizes the extrovert ~ like having a jolt of caffeine;
4.  Extroverts crave social settings;
5.  Extroverts like to take charge;
6.  Extroverts love to talk; and
7.  Sometimes the energy of extroverts can be overwhelming!

You may want to make a note in your Journal about "extraversion" . . .

Extraversion

Extroverted Woman

Extraversion is characterized by excitability, sociability, talkativeness, assertiveness, and high amounts of emotional expressiveness.  People who are high in extraversion are outgoing and tend to gain energy in social situations.

Introverted Personality

You'll notice that people who are low in extraversion (or who have an introverted personality) tend to be more reserved and have to expend energy in social settings.  Introverted personality types love solitude in peaceful settings like by bodies of water.

Please make a note in your Journal that people who are high on extraversion tend to . . .
  • Enjoy being the center of attention
  • Like to start conversations
  • Enjoy meeting new people
  • Have a wide social circle of friends and acquaintances
  • Find it easy to make new friends
  • Feel energized when they are around other people
  • Say things before they think about them
Do any of the above statements sound like you?

Be sure to leave your thoughts, comments, input, and any questions in our "Comments Section" at the bottom of our Blog.  We'd love to hear what you have to share!

This will conclude our Blog Sessions on The Writer's Comfort Levels.  We hope you have enjoyed this particular area of interest.
