Self-help: How to Brand yourself.

You have been invited to live in this world just once. Definitely, you won’t get another chance. And your time is short as well. So, obviously you will want to live in the best possible way, won’t you? And let me tell you, it IS essential to be unique. If you are just like the others, then of course you are no different. And you have to be different to be a brand.

So, I am going to give you lot some ideas on how to make yourself a brand- how to be unique?

Being unique is not a rock science. Everyone is born human- no one is born a genius or exceptional by default. Get that. Good. Being unique means to make yourself stand out in the crowd. Giving others a good reason for remembering you. Making yourself an inspiration for others to follow. In short- branding yourself means to give yourself a label for your identification.

The word ‘brand’ is made up of five letters- B- R- A- N- D

 

HOW-TO:

Here are the tips to Brand yourself

1)    Be you.

That’s it! Smile often and smile genuinely to make yourself likeable. Develop your identification mark. What is the thing (quality, habit etc…) I you that everyone appreciates? Work to refine that quality of yours.

Many of us take inspiration from others, i.e. that person is awesome; that girl is intelligent; that man is successful etc… and do nothing to improve our self. Have you ever thought of becoming an inspiration yourself?

“The most important person in your life is you.”

And if you don’t love yourself- no one else will. So the first thing to do in your life is- To Love Yourself. Then be grateful to God for what He had given you. Be positive. Be sure that at the end of the tunnel there is light.

 

2)    Recognize your abilities.

Every one of you is capable of doing something really well. So make use of this. Find out what are the things that you can do well. It may be some kind of work or quality.

For example: I have honesty, communication skills and passion. The combination of all there is ME. Same goes to all of you out there. You are the product of your qualities. So, refine your qualities you make yourself valuable. You should prove yourself to be a master in everything you do.

 

3)    Be Adorable

You need to be lovable. What is the thing that the world loves about you?

For example: Does the world love you because of your generosity. Talent. The way you speak to others.

 

4)    Your Niche.

Niche (French word: To be different)

Different as in your style. Yes. Your character is essential.  So is your appearance. How you look to the world. Your dressing style. The way you carry yourself. The way you speak to others etc... All should be unique. Generally it is thought that you have to dress up for the society, whether you prefer or not. This won’t let you become a brand.

“To become a Brand, you have to dress up for YOURSELF!”

The dress in which you feel happy is the ‘BEST’. Look at yourself in the mirror. Do you like the way you look? Remember that mirror never lies! Don’t listen to what people have to say. Decide for yourself whether you look best or not?

Know that the world laughs at you first- but then, follows you.

 

5)    Determination.

Two questions.

Q. no1) How determined are you to achieve your goals and become a brand?

Q. no2) How daring are you?

Firstly, you should be persistent in your efforts. Never give up. Secondly, daring is very important. The more you dare, the better your life gets. All the successful brands and the people in this world have one thing in common- RISK!

“Opportunities knock in disguise of impossible endeavors.”

Your destinations become inaccessible when you don’t dare. Successful is the person who says ‘Let’s do it’ when he sees an opportunity. You should incorporate a winning attitude. Miracles happen through passion.

 

LIVE YOUR LIFE

“Death comes for everyone, but how many people actually LIVE their lives?”

Nature has balanced life. How? You know that there are 24 hours a day. These hours are divided into 3 sections. 8 hours are for sleep, 8, for working and remaining 8 for entertainment. Ut what is you want to become someone GREAT. Then, obviously you will have to sacrifice your luxury hours for more work. You should always have a goal to fulfil in the upcoming years of your life.

“If you don’t brand yourself, your life is not going to be better than it is now.”

 

FINAL THOUGHT#. Do not be common. Learn to be the best!
