<section><h2><h2 style="text-align:center;"><del></del>Introvert or Extrovert : Anxious or Confident</h2></h2><p><h3 style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:16px;">Are you a confident introvert or an anxious extrovert? Perhaps you're a anxious introvert, or maybe a confident extrovert? Take this questionnaire to find out.</span> </h3></p></section><section><h2><h2 style="text-align:center;">You are a Confident Introvert</h2></h2><p><p><span style="font-size:16px;">Psychologist Carl Jung proposed that defining whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert, depends on where we direct our energy. Jung believed that extroverts direct their energy outwards, towards other people, and as a result, gain energy from social interactions; and introverts, direct their energy inwards, and therefore, gain their energy from spending time on their own.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:16px;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-size:16px;">We at T2 have found that when it comes to introverts and extroverts, there's a common misconception that introverts are often thought of being shy and anxious, and extroverts are highly confident and love the limelight. However, from our experience, we can argue that this isn’t the case. Although preferring to spend time on their own, introverts can be extremely confident individuals, and similarly, although preferring to be around others, extroverts can experience feelings of anxiousness. This is where our theory comes into play. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:16px;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-size:16px;">Your answers tell us that you are a <strong>Confident Introvert</strong>. Confident introverts are very comfortable in their own skin. They enjoy spending time on their own, and seek stimulation from doing tasks alone. Despite favouring spending time on their own, they are comfortable socialising and are confident speaking to and in front of others. Confident introverts are great thinkers. Their ideas are extremely well thought through and therefore, when they do speak, they should be listened to. Despite their quiet demeanour, confident introverts can command a room when required and engage their audience due to their confidence in their abilities, visions and thought processes. As they regain their social energy by spending time alone, confident introverts are likely to have a small group of close friends who they enjoy spending time with. They make great listeners and are often the person that their friends go to for advice.</span><br /></p><p> </p></p></section><section><h3><h2 style="text-align:center;">You are an Anxious Introvert</h2></h3><p><p><span style="font-size:16px;">Psychologist Carl Jung proposed that defining whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert, depends on where we direct our energy.

Anxious introverts are what most people would think are stereotypical introverts. They are shy and quiet in social settings, and would much rather be at home in their own company than attending parties and networking events. They often have a small circle of friends and family, and very rarely deviate from familiarity. They care about what others think of them, and therefore, do not put themselves in situations where they will be open to judgement. Due to their introverted nature, you will find that anxious introverts are extremely loyal people and will only surround themselves with people that they trust and feel comfortable with.</span><br /><p> </p></p></section><section><h3><h2 style="text-align:center;">You are a Confident Extrovert</h2></h3><p><p><span style="font-size:16px;">Psychologist Carl Jung proposed that defining whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert, depends on where we direct our energy.

Anxious extroverts are rather complex characters. They enjoy spending time with people, and are energised by external stimuli, however, they tend to seek validation from others and care about what people think about them. This can make anxious extroverts very self-conscious and anxious individuals, traits which become more exaggerated when they spend time on their own. However, in the right company, anxious extroverts can thrive and be the life and soul of the party. They are their best-self when they are in the presence of people that they like and trust and feel comfortable with. Outside of their comfort zone, anxious extroverts can retract socially and appear introverted. Nonetheless, they gain their energy by spending time with others and therefore feel more at ease when surrounded by their friends and family.</span></p></p></section><section><h2><h2>Given the choice, I would prefer to: </h2></h2></section><section><h3><h2>At parties I:</h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">When I have free time I:</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">All things being equal, I:</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">When I go out socially, it's usually with a large group of friends.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">I prefer working out personal problems on my own</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">In conversations or at meetings, I plan what I'm going to say before speaking.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">I eagerly share my thoughts and feelings with other people.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">I am very talkative.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">When conversing with someone, I reveal personal facts about myself.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2>I enjoy spending time alone.</h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2>I bounce back quickly from personal or professional failure.</h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2>I tend to hide my feelings from others.</h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">I second-guess my decisions.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2><span style="color:#2c2d30;">I can calm myself down when under stress.</span></h2></h3></section><section><h3><h2>I care what people think about me.</h2></h3></section>
