Truly a common question!
If you are young, you should practice longer and more sustained exercises with the objective of getting stronger.
tone is different up close and afar. The high frequencies travel with little absorption and the low frequencies are absorbed everywhere. thus what you THINK you sound like is NOT what you sound like in the hall to others.
also as you get older you will get weaker and weaker and weaker... that's what so many older clarinetists, who do not WORK at their sound and physical abilities sound thinner and thinner as the age. Saxophonists are even worse as their overtone series is MUCH fuller of highs.
You REALLY need a good teacher and mentor for all your decisions. Find a GREAT teacher who is also a well respected (at the professional level) player.
Good luck.
Gotta say after over 50 years I still LOVE Clarinet!
