Why Grant Writing Is The Perfect Gig For An Introvert (No Need To Put On That Mask Of Extroversion!)

Are you an introvert wondering what careers are best suited for your introspective and independent nature? 🤔 Or, do you often feel like you have to put on that mask of extroversion in order to succeed at freelancing? 🎭

We get it! 😊

Curious how you could get into grant writing and build a career in it? Here is a free training on how to do that without volunteering or having prior experience: https://www.learngrantwriting.org/webinar-videos/discover-grant-writing

An introvert is a type of person who enjoys spending time alone in order to recharge. They tend to be reserved, prefer less stimulating environments, and enjoy a smaller group of friends. 🏞️

Of course not all introverts fit into one standard and it’s generally on a spectrum or situational, but some of the best qualities of introverts is their ability to be good listeners and highly observant. They’re empathetic, compassionate, independent, and disciplined. 🙂

What Makes Grant Writing a Great Career For An Introvert?
1️⃣ Working in the nonprofit space requires empathy and compassion.
2️⃣ Your introspection, keen observation, and attention to detail is exactly what’s required in a grant writer.
3️⃣ Your independence and ability to be self-sufficient is a huge strength for when you’re working on tasks that require a lot of focus like grant research or the various steps to writing a winning proposal.

✨ Bonus: grant writing is one of those careers that is perfect not only for introverts, but extroverts and multi-passionate people alike. It’s social impact focused and one where you can sleep good at night knowing you’re making a real difference in this world. ✨
