One thing today that I want to work on the most: Question asking more and learning about others. I already know everything about myself. It’s in my head. I’m already thinking it. Why would I spend time talking about myself in casual convo? Wait until people ask questions. Building rapport is about asking questions. Making people feel comfortable. We don’t accomplish this by talking about ourselves. To some extent. Especially if they aren’t extraverted, they’re going to feel even more uncomfortable if we talk about ourselves. Get them to open up by staying curious. Practice this now and moving forward. Make it a point. As a leader. You will leave people with a feeling, and thats what matters. How do you feel when you leave someone’s presence? This says a lot about someone. I want to be a person that leaves people with a feeling of fire. A feeling that they’re accepted just how they are. A feeling like everything they want is possible to achieve. A feeling like they deserve the best no matter what circumstance in life has made them believe. I like to show people how valuable plans of action are. Taking small steps and building momentum. It doesn’t matter how much $ is in our bank account, what we’ve accomplished, who we know, or any other type of power trip that we want to play. It’s about who we are now. Are we treating everyone with respect, strangers and loved ones equally. When you’re alone and run into someone in public, are you still treating them with respect even when the lights and cameras aren’t on you? Be consistent with your character. Sure its okay to be goofy, crazy, high energy, chill, and you name it; But there are fundamentals that need to always remain present. Ones that stick with you. Be curious. Be respectful. Share kindness with people. Let them feel that energy and take it with them. Leave them with a feeling that helps them spread the same type of feeling. Leadership is what I want to continue and improve on. Leaders are the ones that leave something so strong with you that you feel it for days after you engage with them. Sure, treat yourself with you. Treat yourself like a king or queen. But when you engage with others, make it meaningful and make it less about yourself. This is what I want to improve on. Little things like this change the world. It’s time to put this into play.
