Being Who You Want To Be
Is there a particular quality you just so wish you had? One that you admire in someone else? A way you want to be?
How about versatile or adaptable or the one who can 'go with the flow', the easy-going person. Possibly you like the opposite of that, the energetic type, the one who is always ready to go on to the next thing, an adventuresome type. Maybe you'd like to be seen as elegant. Perhaps you'd like to develop an ambitious, independent spirit. Or it's more important to you that people see you as being friendly.
There are as many choices as there are people, what do you place a value on?
Think of whom you admire; what is it about that person that provokes that feeling in you, the feeling of admiration? Once you identify the quality, you can begin to develop that characteristic in yourself. Yes, you can!
Why not? First take it apart into it's components: If it's elegance, what are the parts that add up to finally giving that impression---beautifully groomed? composed? great posture? excellent manners?
How about friendly? How does a friendly person behave? Are they relaxed in their demeanor with new people, do they open up themselves in conversation, smile, show interest in others?
Once you have the components, you can begin practicing them yourself. Yes, you can become a person you, yourself admire.
Once you have chosen the quality you want to adopt, let me know what you are working on.
