Other people just show up.
If you were born with a physical attribute that makes you clearly stand out, like tremendous height or size or beauty, or a halo hanging over your head at all times, you get noticed when you walk in a room.
For the rest of us, we need to do more to get noticed. But it doesn't have to be so hard.
You can SHOW UP by doing your homework about something or somebody and asking the right questions.
Finding out what their tastes and preferences and interests are, and sending them a note in advance of a meeting.
Wearing something great.
Smiling really big and having fantastic energy and enthusiasm.
The gentleman in the picture above whose back is to us is from a faraway land where seven-foot tall people aren't unusual. On a basketball court in the middle of nowhere, his height is not just unusual, it's intimidating. He SHOWS UP.
How do you do it?
