The 7 Real Skills You Need To Make 2016 Your Best Year Ever
By Lauren | Insight , Personal Branding
Enough of the New Year, New You hyperbole, mythical predictions and unrealistic resolutions, here are the 7 real skills you’re going to need to build a strong and successful personal brand this year:
Skill 1: The ability to be happy to be yourself?
It’s all too easy to look around and wish you were someone else and all together too hard to try to be someone different to who you really are. It’s much more fulfilling to be comfortable in your own skin, knowing you are being 100% authentic and honest.
Wishing you were more like someone else is not going to help you get the most from the year.
Action star Bruce Lee said “Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.”
Be grateful for all of you, forget what others think of you or what your competitors are like and discover what’s great about you.
It doesn’t work to constantly be seeking happiness, thinking that once you have a brand, then I’ll be happy to be myself. You will become 100% confident in yourself when you celebrate everything you are, your natural skills and talents and create the essence of your personal brand.
Only then can you step into your brand and start to live it.
We are living in the era of the authentic brand, so just be you?
