Hey guys! Today I want to talk to you about how to be attractive
And no we're not talking about the attractiveness between the opposite sex
I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression
But I'm talking about, as a person in general,
How to present yourself in a way that you stand out
How to present yourself in a way that people simply enjoy having you around and wanna make friends with you
So this is from my personal experience
A couple years ago... I was at a wedding banquet. It was a friend of mine.
In fact, I knew both the bride and groom . They were good friends (of mine)
I was seated at this table with a bunch of college friends
To be specific, they were my junior classmates
I remember one of them striking up a conversation with me, and to be honest...
We didn't know each other that well back in the days
At least that's what I thought
In fact, I don't recall me and him talking that much back in school
But in a friendly tone, he told me something that was really touching. He said...
"Joe, thank you so much for always wearing that sunny smile on your face
It always gave me a warm feeling."
And I was like, "Wow, I'm flattered. Thank you very much for letting me know."
We might not have known each other that well, but after so many years he remembered that smile
Hmm
I was more than happy to hear that
In fact, I was thankful to him for letting me know
Cuz like I was totally unaware of how such a subtle thing could bring such good impact to other people
I'm not bragging, in fact...
Let's admit, every one of us... like me I put on my poker faces every now and then
It's not like I'm smiley faces every day
But just saying, the slightest, the most subtle act could be making a big difference in other people's lives
We could be making other people's day(s)
You don't have to put on makeup
You don't have to wear fancy clothes
You don't have to get in shape
Well, it would be good to get in shape for health's sake
Having good looks is always a plus. Let's be clear about that
But the fact is the majority of us are not Tom Cruise or Scarlett Johansson
And that's fine
Cuz there is one thing that is natural in you and me
No matter what skin color you are
No matter what language you speak
No matter what cultural background you come from
That thing is your smile
It's a universal language shared among all seven billion people around the world
It's the best gift you could ever give someone you meet
Except for a million dollars
I'm just kidding
So if I were to give you one tip on how to be attractive...
That would be... put on your smile
Cuz it makes you look good
Remember this and keep it in mind...
"Water runs from high ground to low. And people run to where love overflows."
Be kind, be nice, be loving...
and people will run to you
You
