In reply to Kent Lundgren. Thanks for sharing, Kent! It's intriguing to start recalling great presentations from the past. Once I was invited to a breakfast meeting with 80 guests, and everyone got 20 seconds to share something about their business to the audience. I only remember 3 of them as they engaged in a surprising way.

I remember well balanced thoughts, ideas rooted in sound values. Ideas that benefit both people and the environment. Thoughts that mixes facts with genuine passion. Where body language is courageously and confidently but still from the first moment invites the audience to participate, ask questions, and who readily admits that truth with a capital T is beyond our immediate understanding.

I´m happy that I have inspired you to get out of your comfort zone now and then. I try to remember what I did the day after the conference. Honestly, I do not remember. I reflect almost every day what I have done to show courage and feel happiness. Yesterday I took a zumba class and got a lot of energy. I gave an interview in the local newspaper the other day about courage. I have heard so many fun stories after my “performance” so I wanted to give some more of my thinking about courage. I think I owed the great audience at the conference that.Tove

Comment on Why Linking In matters for Boosting Your Personal Brand by Michelle Hunter

This is very encouraging to hear, Katy! Many friends and fellow freelance colleagues quiz me on how effective my social media activities are. I spend a lot of time building up my networks, linking all the places in which I’m present (and active) and keeping an eye on what others are doing (so I can learn from them and gain more knowledge of what’s “out there”). I really enjoy it, luckily, because actual business has yet to come in. That being said, I feel my efforts are about to pay off; my social media activities are on the boil! By working out an actual strategy for proactively managing the networks I’ve built up, as you suggest, I’m going to reap the rewards.
Keep up the good work. Thanks.
Yours,
Michelle

I enjoyed what Min had to share. I do agree with their thoughts and opinions. When you set a standard for yourself, those elements that may drag you down will melt away because you’ll be so focused on the grand prize!

It’s evident that I have the capabilities to say what I want in life. I believe what holds me back is when I attempt a step and don’t receive a response I was looking for. It makes me doubt what I am working towards and if it’s truly where I need to be. I feel that I need to let go of expected outcomes and just know that not ever inquiry will be a “yes”. In fact, perhaps what I should focus on is changing a “no” to a “yes” or even what can I do to elicit a response from someone?

Yes, well I think that coming across as cocky in “the wrong way” all depends on the receiver and his/her worldview, and of course what it is that you say you want to achieve in life. But if you want to life a rich/successful life you cannot be afraid of not being liked, as the saying “Do you want to be rich, or liked by all?”. At least that is my opinion.

And I’m sure that if you are cocky (without offending the other person), you will get more recognizion and more support from your surroundings than if you came across as uncertain of what you are striving for and want to achieve in your life. Because if you are uncertain, what do you expect the people around you to be?
