Becoming a Person of Presence!

Do you know anyone who have PRESENCE? They just walk into a room, and they command the attention of everyone, heads turn and the question is asked,"Who is that person?" Don't YOU want to be that person? A person of influence and affluence, a person of PRESENCE, if so read on.

I remember when I met my first mentor, Kenneth Barrington Thomas, when he did a speech at my high school. I remember asking that question, "Who's that man?" I also remember saying to myself, "I want to be like that man. I want to do what he does, I want to command such a presence." The question is how do you become a person like that? Everyone that has such command of their audience, there are two words they live: PASSION and PURPOSE. That's it, if you want to become a person of INFLUENCE, live your life with passion and purpose.

Passionate persons, they just seem to have the energy to do the impossible, the remarkable. How come? Because they LOVE what they do, it makes their heart sing. It doesn't feel like they are working. When they work or play, you aren't able to tell the difference. Passionate people, they are full of energy, they share theirs with you. Most people are energy drainers, passionate people are energy givers. Don't you like being around people that give you energy? So what makes your heart sing? What do you love doing? What would you do even if you weren't being paid for it? Discover your passion and share it with the world, and see your life transform.

People of passion usually have a purpose behind it. It is said by the Legendary Business Philosophier, Jim Rohn, that "Purpose is greater than object." What's the purpose behind your goals? What does your vision mean to you? Human beings we strive for meaning into our lives. Meaning is the step before action. It's the whys that drives the hows. Share your purpose with others, and you will find that those who belive in you willing to help you achieve that purpose. Give purpose to life and see the remarkable happen.

These are the two primary reasons to me to become a person of Presence: PASSION and PURPOSE. Discover yours TODAY!

Here's to Your PRESENCE!
