This is all BUllSHshIYT- I was introvert til age 25 then became a salesman by accidently forced to find a job and watched people making money just by TALKING, became totally extroverted, when I found out I could make lotsa money by just talking to people..

This gene scheme is pure BS crap.’

One should remember from biology that genes cannot be changed except by radiation and genetic manipulation. The rest is determined by ENVIRONMENT> BIOLOGY 101

Any 3rd grader knows this.

It`s called TRAINING and practice practice practice.

If you offer lotsa buck to any person who discovers they can sell and make lotsa moola just by talking to people- their personalities change overnight. Zomeboody evidently has no experience in the business world, and it ain`t me.

Like I reiterate this is pure BS because no one has quoted any studies on introverts that became extroverts- if no obverse, no converse-
It`s a very flawed supposition and has no legs on which to stand. PURE BS -
if there is no Control B, Control A is invalid.

I know of several introverts that started computer ,high tech & internet companies. Immediately after the smell of money came into their company their whole personalities changed and they became the greatest extroverts , etc.because they know they could sell their ideas and make LOTSA MONEY -
This is pure BS what you are advocating,.

I personally for 20 years know a founder of nVision, since he was a kid, totally introvert but became the greatest multimillionaire salesman for nVision once he saw the buck rolling in..

I personally know a girl who was totally introverted scientist, always studying, experimenting- but when she discovered she could raise millions of dollars by her discoveries- no problem -she`s right up there on the podium totally extroverted to speak to her SHAREHOLDERS>

BULSHT gene scheme is what somebody is preaching here
Zomebody is full of crap and it ain`t me.

been ther done that.

Do you have children? If so, have you ever noticed that each one of them has a distinct personality—despite being raised by the same parents in the same environment? Personality is shaped by genetics.

The idea that human beings are born as identical blank slates waiting to have whatever written on them was discarded decades ago.

Introversion/extraversion are inborn traits. An introvert *can* speak in public—that does not mean that he or she is an extravert. What it means is that the person MUST have a period of alone-time to rest after being social. As I said before, I am a strong introvert, and that is not going to change. Despite that, I often give briefings, sometimes to audiences of hundreds. People tell me that I am very good at it. However, at the end of the day, I need time alone to recover.

I can guarantee you that I am not salesperson material. It doesn’t matter how much money can be earned like that—it won’t happen. Most people do not have the qualities that make good salespeople—which is why companies that depend on aggressive sales tactics are always trying to recruit salespeople. The question is, would I be able to take you, a high-powered salesman, and make a conscientious and careful laboratory technician out of you? Do you have the qualities needed to learn sterile technique, to run the same tests and assays hundreds of times and analyze the same results? Would you be as excited to see the results the thousandth time you ran the assay as you were the first time? If you do not already have the inborn qualities that make a good scientist, no amount of training will give them to you, period.

The genes that guide formation of the neural circuitry are as individual as the genes that control your eye color, hair color, blood type, height, body shape, etc. Whether you have an aptitude for mathematics or prefer squishy subjects like English or sociology, if you are athletic or a total klutz, whether your IQ is high or low—these are all genetically determined features of your brain. Where environment comes in is after recognizing that a child has certain aptitudes, and then training the child to make the best use of them.
