Yes - you're not born with your personality. Its something that comes about through social conditioning and life experience...
You can play at being an extrovert for a while but you pobably won't be comfortable on it till you work on your self confidence. Just remember there are many reasons for a person being an 'extrovert' just as there are for people who are labelled 'introverts'. And there is a difference between being an introvert and being socially uncomfortable. Most introverts I know are happy and comfortable that way. If you want more social confidence find your thing and you'll be happy there.

Of course an introvert person can become outgoing. I was a very introvert person, I didn´t do what I wanted because I always tought what I wanted was ridiculous, or someone would laugh at me.... The secret is simple, you have to discover who you are, what do you like to do, and simply do it. When I was a teenager I had toruble getting a girlfriend because of this problem, I really lost the number but probably 5 or 6 girls rejected me, but everytime I tried I got better with them, now I have no problems.... But I did something about it, I acted somehow, but it´s the only way, and it´s a slow one, you can´t chage that in 2 weeks, it takes years and a lot of patience.

Most of my family/friends consider me an introvert and even when I try and be outgoing it really feels awkward and foreign to me....like I am being a phony. So you can try, but I dont think you will feel authentic to yourself. Theres nothing wrong with being an introvert....a ying to a yang.

yes definately.i was very intro.but i simply outgrew it and am now very extro.it happened naturally though as my self-esteem grew. i dont know about changing it by therapy or something though,i guess it could work. or you could just be what you are and nothing will change it, in either case the first step is to love yourself the way you are!then maybe come out of your shell or simply accept the way you are! after all it takes all kinds,and there's nothing wrong with being an introvert as long as YOU are happy with you.peace!

someone can not replace who they are. yet an introvert can study and enhance the flexibility to be extra socially outgoing with assistance from purely going out with extra extroverted acquaintances or looking a thanks to make themselves delicate in an issue which, less than different circumstances, may have them feeling insecure. party: visit a celebration. even if you're wasted previous perception or the most suitable sober man or woman between a gaggle of drunks, you is honestly not feeling shy. Likewise, extroverts can study the thanks to be extra introspective with assistance from spending a lot less time in conserving with others for his or her very own happiness and extra time on their very own searching inwards. really, contained in the appropriate, it truly is all a count number of will.

Anything is possible...but it will require a lot of personal internal work on that introverted individual.

It's possible, if the introvert truly wants to change and works at it.

Yes, it is definitely possible but you to practice certain skills in order to make it happen. Force yourself to do things you wouldn't normally do, like go to parties and strike up a conversation with someone. Just try to do things that will get you past your normal comfort zone.

yes it is...i used to be an introvert...i didn't like it but it was normal for me...what helped me was when i went overseas to a Bible school for a year...i spent alot of time with God and learned not to be afraid to be myself...even if people don't accept me, God does.
