That's quite an accomplishment.<br /><br />To answer your question, yes, I do believe that PT is a good profession for an introvert. I still enjoy it after 13 years, and I consider myself very introverted. My boss is also an introvert, so I think that helps.<br /><br />I think it takes a little bit of work for an introvert. I wrote another blog post in which I went into more detail. I hope some of the tips work for you:<br /><br />http://rebeccarolandwriter.blogspot.com/2013/02/for-introverts.htmlRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02255287212255659436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141445435953040179.post-39233996334700610102013-04-05T21:51:13.880-07:002013-04-05T21:51:13.880-07:00Rebecca, I'm a incoming PT student.

I thrive on getting up in front of groups of people, but one on one drains me, although if I had to spend my entire day performing, presenting, etc, that would drain me, too. Too much solitary time is also draining. I need a delicate mix of upfront and solitary time. Ironically, many people who meet me think I'm quite extroverted when they meet me.Susan Abel Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11899141951466451474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141445435953040179.post-30214956141545687972012-04-21T19:27:39.205-07:002012-04-21T19:27:39.205-07:00Excellent description, Comic Guy.
