Default Pilot career without instructing?

I have my days where I read the Instructor handbook, with motivation to become a CFI. Then reality sinks in, and I question weather I can be a CFI. I have anxiety over public speaking and presentations. I don't mind studying all the knowledge required, but I know this will be a factor when it comes to doing ground. Is there any way around this? Could I get excused by the CFI to just practice in a private room 1 on 1? If I decide not to teach, can you still have a ok Piloting career? I don't have high standards, and would be happy making enough money to live well( 40-60k is fine) I really wouldn't mind doing like 135 frieght. How hard would it be for someone to build time without instructing and would I be limited to non Airline jobs? Thanks in advance.
