77. Right. Pull the other one. You are Ambidextrous

Thu Jan 26, 2012, 11:09 AM

Jan 2012

I have an extrovert acquaintance who literally distracts herself from her life with her need to be social...

I've known introverts who couldn't get their noses out of their corner long enough to see a star...

I believe in having both abilities and using them as needed, and cultivating the weak spots so that there are no weak spots.

IIn other words, go with your strengths and interests, but know how to work the other side, or be blind-sided.
