Yes. My job did this for me. I am a naturally a quiet person, but my job calls for assertiveness, the ability to remain calm and have mental clarity when chaos is abound. These are qualities I didn't possess before, but I learned, and now they are a part of who I am.
Depression can cause personality changes, but that's usually transient.
If you really think about it, we constantly tailor our personalities to the people with which we interact. Nobody talks to their parent, grandparent, sibling, friend, spouse, co-worker the same. The plastic nature of personality seems to be a positive evolutionary trait.

Well, I wasn't a curmudgeon when I was a youngster.

I've come to realize the value of time so I'm a lot more active, going places and doing things that I wish I'd had the sense to do when I was younger. Not sure my personality has really changed that much but my activities and priorities sure have.

A minimum of 3 times. Maybe as much as 10 so ... far.

So get a job as an embalmer at the county morgue or something. Then your weakness becomes your strength.

I should hope so.

When I was a kid I was very very shy and introverted. Work, training, and life experiences have matured me to the absolute opposite of shy and introverted. If you're pushing the comfort zone in your life, you will grow, and your personality will change as a result. What you never thought was possible will become not only possible, but a part of who you are, but only as a result of pushing yourself to grow. Some people will never push though, and as a result will not grow either.
