I often struggle with the exact same things–sometimes to the point where I question my own abilities, or if I’m even on the right path. Advertising can a tough business for quiet people, but if it’s really what you want to do, you’ve gotta give it a shot.

I really appreciated your candor and advice. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one!

The feelings and ideas that you shared resonate with me deeply. I’m always eager to be part of something and doing work at my internship, but it can be tough to break through my natural introversion and show just how excited I am to be there.

Advertising is such a great industry because there are places for both extroverts and introverts, but you should also know how to act as one or the other when needed. Your advice is great, and could be helpful for a lot of people who may feel held back because of their quietness. Thanks for such a relatable post, and keep up the great work!

First, congrats on your internship! I’ve heard good things about Skai Blue Media.

I also can be on the shy side in many situations, so I understand how that works. But Skai Blue obviously saw something in you and liked your work also!

I think it’s so important to achieve something like what you did at an internship. Coming out of your shell is huge. It’s something I need to work on more. You’re so right, the more you put yourself out there, the better chance you have of gaining something from it. Only good things can come from this and help you in your next internship or during job hunting. Great post and good luck!
