[Help] - Metasploit Reverse-TCP Config 05-27-2014, 07:22 PM

Hey guys,
Now, I've been learning the basics and the more advanced functions of the metasploit framework for the past month, so I think I'm pretty good. However, I've run into a little problem.
Metasploit has a payload which is basically a reverse tcp meterpreter shell on the target's system. Now, it's pretty simple if the target is on your own network, you simply set the LHOST on the payload and the listener as your own computer's internal IP address, but what about if the target is not on your own network?
Do you set the listener on your own internal IP and the payload to connect to your external IP? I assume the port has to be forwarded and allowed on your firewall.
I'm lost here. Any help is appreciated.
