to make a special You.
Pleasing
Personality: Be kind, loving, caring,
thoughtful, sympathetic, positive to project self image with confidence and firm in
decision. A sunny nature with cheery heart leaves no room for gloom on ones face.
Your attitude, etiquette and manners project your innerself and win many hearts. Neat,
clean, well dressed with maintained physique makes you confident, sure result oriented
person. Cool disposition with maturity and sensitivity adds to charm and beauty in making
an impressive personality .These qualities make you a different person - a cut above the
others. Positive qualities once imbibed will inevitably become a part of ones
nature.
Cultivate a Smile:
Be friendly and happy. A smile is the longest word
in the world with a mile between the first and the last letter. The smile is the shortest
distance between two people. People are more responsive to good humoured person. A smile
tension, eases pain, leaves behind troubles. It enriches those who receive, create
happiness in homes, foster goodwill and business and is the countersign of friends. A
smile reflects genuineness, a curved line that straighten up things right. It invites
friendship, affection, confidence and encourages the disheartened. A bubbling smile from
the heart drives away hovering dark shadows to coax the sun again to brighten up the path
to reach the goals.
Give Honest
Appreciation & Avoid Criticism: Appreciation
is demanding to encourage enthusiasm in an individual. Every human craves for appreciation
to develop his personality and possess the superior complex with lavish praise.Sincere
appreciation and flattery are two different actions altogether. Appreciation means
complimenting heartily to make a person feel important and rise his spirits whereas
flattery is lame which a well aware persons heart fills with malishness, egoism and
harsh reality puts either of the two involved in bitterness. Hence, appreciation with
heart makes all the difference. Criticism in turn, wounds hearts, arises inferiority,
discourages a person and leaves scars of despair. Tact should be implied instead of
Criticism and all sarcastic remarks should be avoided to forego grudge.
Tact: This is securely
favouring position to make a person friendly. Avoid being irritated but firmly and kindly
speak your say without entering into an argument. Be optimistic in views and avoid
negative impacts of words.
Voice Modulation: A
persons voice reflects his personality. The way one feels,behaves, moods, attitudes
are reflected through his voice. Soft, pleasant, husky voice with low pitch, not harsh,
dull or lifeless, but bold, confident, clear, well pronounce play a vital role in self
reflection. Mirror practice proves to be beneficial for better pronunciation and also find
yourself in a corner of a room and repeat your name often till you find your voice clear,
soft, but audible. Avoid shouting on top of your voice and check yourself with spicy food
habits
Correct Posture: Stand
erect with an authority with lifted face, chin forward and upward, face alert, shoulders
straightened without standing stiff. Hand should not show signs of consciousness but
either with fists closed, not clenched or easy with hands folded or at the back with
slight one foot forward. Balanced in a natural looking way Tummy should be in and not get
distracted and have presence of mind by avoiding all ways like scratching your nose,
jingling keys or coins in pocket, rocking back & forth on your heels etc. Walk should
be graceful with proper strides, easy, feet moving parallel to each other with arms
swinging and shoulders relaxed. Palm should be towards the body. Sit erect with hands on
your legs, with neat curves of your dress falling at your knees or feet together in a
managed way.
Be an Interesting Person
: Be zestful in life and enjoy thoroughly. Be creative, pour
new ideas and fill your life with Interest, hobbies, ambitions, exhibit your talents.
Develop your tastes, your positive approach. Imbibe the habits of reading, music,
creativity, walking, socializing and workoholism. This will widen your visions, improve on
personal efficiency, concentration, power of observation, optimistic and make you a lively
person. Personality will widen your horizons with Happiness and is really the ability to
