Id spend time outdoors biking, exploring the nearby fields and hills, or shooting hoops(投篮)，but Id usually favor doing these things alone or with people I knew very well. I never felt too comfortable around strangers, and I never cared for big family events. Psychological tests like the Myers-Briggs pegged(认定) me as an introvert. Anyone who knew me would have described me as an introvert without a second thought. Like many introverts I was pressured by others to socialize more. But I largely resisted this pressure, partly because I enjoyed being an introvert. I often viewed extroverts as lacking in intelligence and depth, and I couldnt say I wanted to count myself among them. Here are some suggestions for how to become more extroverted: Envision the type of extrovert youd like to be. Whats your ideal outcome? If you feel too introverted and want to be more extroverted, start by working on your vision of your outcome. Play from your strengths.Its interesting that many introverts have no trouble socializing online. In that environment they are able to play from their strengths. After I graduated from college, I met a woman on a local BBS. We got to chat online over a period of weeks. Eventually we met in person and became friends. And my social calendar went from empty to full almost overnight. If you socialize online, see if you can use that strength to build new local relationships. Join a club. The advantage is that youll find people who share similar interests, which makes it easier to build new relationships. One good club can fill your social calendar. If you join a club and find that it is not right for you, quit and join something else. One good group is all you need. Develop your social skills consciously. You can learn to become better at building rapport(和谐关系), introducing yourself, keeping a conversation going, asking someone out on a date, feeling socially comfortable instead of nervous, and so on. You build these skills because it will greatly enhance your life. 1.This passage is mainly about_.
