How to Develop Strong Presence and Personality.
1. Always walk with confidence. Keep your shoulders back, chest out and head up. Take slow measured strides.
2. Be a good listener and maintain eye contact.
3. Instead of filling the space of your speech with interjections such as umm, hmmmm, etc, pause before speaking. Make silence your friend and make others anticipate your words.
4. Always control your emotions. Remain calm and poised at all times. You give out your power each time you lose control of your emotions.
5. Ask lots of questions before speaking your mind. This helps you to fully understand the situation and context before making your contributions.
6. Show compassion, empathy and sympathy towards others who deserve it.
7. Try your best to avoid admonishing others in public or in front of friends, family, or colleagues. Do it in private.
8. Always dress sharp and clean (must not be expensive but decent).
9. Never be drunk, distraught, embarrassed or panicked in public. Show that you are always calm, cool, collected and in control of yourself and situations.
10. Be humble, courteous, and kind to everyone you meet even those below your social class.
11. Stand your ground against bullies, loud mouths and know-it-all, but do not engage them. Simply look through them with unblinking, intelligent disgust and move on.
12. Treat women with respect and dignity. Offer your seat, open the door, let them go first.
13. Donβt brag, embellish, or inflate stories about yourself or your adventures. Stay mysterious.
14. Always negotiate from a position of power.
15. Never let anyone know your plans, your business, your successes, or failures.
Happy New Month to you. May the month bring you good tidings.
