A Look Into Napoleon Hill’s 29 Factors Of A Pleasing Personality

Wherever we go, we leave behind our trademark, our impression. Our unique energetic signature is felt, if not seen. It can be heard and sensed by people around us even before they see you, even when somebody just sees you for the first time. What is the first impression that you bring up? Is it something positive or negative right off the butt. Would you be the person that I would approach because you seem to have that positive vibe? Or are you the person I would pass by and try to avoid because I see and feel negative towards you already when I do not even know you.

Your Personality and Trademark

According to Napoleon Hill,  “Your personality is your greatest asset or liability. It embraces everything you control, your mind, your body, and your soul.”

Havilah Malone says this, “If you plan on accomplishing anything above mediocrity in life, you will need the cooperation and assistance of others along your journey. To get the help you need in reaching your goals, you must become the kind of person others want to be around. Your personality is your trademark. It can be molded so that it serves as an asset instead of a liability. With a positive mental attitude and use of the “The Big 3” traits of an attractive personality, you are sure to win in any given situation: Smile, Facial expression, Tone of voice.”

Suppose we want people to help us in accomplishing our goals. In that case, it is imperative to turn our personality into an asset of immeasurable value by cultivating the qualities of a pleasing personality. No man is an island.

Poet and Civil Rights Activist Maya Angelou famously quoted, “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

  1. Hey!
    I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where
    I could find a captcha plugin for my
    comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and
    I’m having problems finding one?
    Thanks a lot!

  2. Hello would you mind letting me know which hosting company you’re working
    with? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different web browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
    Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a fair price?
    Many thanks, I appreciate it!

  3. Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.|

  4. I am really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A number of my blog visitors have complained about my site not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any tips to help fix this problem?|

  5. Someone necessarily lend a hand to make seriously articles I’d state. That is the very first time I frequented your web page and to this point? I surprised with the analysis you made to make this particular post incredible. Magnificent job!|

  6. Good post. I learn something totally new and challenging on sites I stumbleupon on a daily basis. It will always be helpful to read through content from other writers and practice something from other web sites. |

  7. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100 positive. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks|

  8. I believe everything typed made a bunch of sense. However, think about this, suppose you were to create a awesome post title? I ain’t suggesting your content isn’t good, but suppose you added a title to maybe grab people’s attention? I mean BLOG_TITLE is a little vanilla. You ought to look at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create article titles to grab viewers to click. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to get people excited about everything’ve got to say. In my opinion, it might make your blog a little bit more interesting.|

  9. Hello, I do believe your website might be having browser compatibility problems. When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in IE, it’s got some overlapping issues. I merely wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Besides that, fantastic blog!|

  10. When someone writes an post he/she keeps the thought of a user in his/her brain that how a user can be aware of it. So that’s why this article is great. Thanks!|

  11. I think the admin of this website is genuinely working hard in support of his web page, since here every stuff is quality based material.|
