How genuine are you Really?
Just because we think that we are perceived in a certain way, it doesn’t mean we are. More often than not, our view of ourself doesn’t exactly match the view others have of us. If we don’t recognize this, just think of the damage we can do!
Now lets think about this from the Socal Media world. If in the real world we are not seen as genuine, how do you think social media magnifies this? In my experience, it only gets worse. In person, we can read peoples nonverbal communications, but on the internet that goes away. So what can we do to ensure success?
To start, ask those closest to you to be honest and evaluate you. Be willing to accept the answer whether good or harsh and use it to improve yourself. Next thing to do is think about your online message and figure out how to be certain that your message is always taken in the best spirit. Be a craftsman of your brand. Finally, surround yourself with people that uplift and honor you and your message.
Don’t ever assume anything! You know what that stands for.
