Interesting side note on "fitness versus intelligence": hasn't it been shown repeatedly that exercise helps you think more clearly and remain more relaxed and focused? I know it does for me, and one of the biggest things I can recommend to anyone (but especially the scrawny nerds) is to exercise. It doesn't have to be an IronMan triathlon, but thirty minutes every day can help wake you up and make you much more productive.
- spodek 13y agoI hope perspectives like this are one of the main outcomes of the And model of the post -- that people don't see the skills associated with introversion as "versus" those of extroversion. So that just like you point out with fitness and intelligence, so with introversion and extroversion, so people can find solitude, focus, and meditation help them develop skills of being outgoing and gregarious. And that people can find talking, socializing, networking, and partying help them develop skills of spending time alone or with a small group of close friends.
