Life’s A Stage And We’re All Players


As humans, being incredibly social creatures, we all have a bit of a performer inside of us.

Many either simply repress this part of Human Nature or just don’t use it to their advantage.

What am I talking about here?

Social performance!

We all play different “roles” throughout most days: 

The Partner…

The Professional…

The Friend…

The Husband/Wife…

The Father/Mother…

The Acquaintance even.

The problem is many people don’t fully embrace their part. They rather just go through the motions of what they believe it means to be a good partner, professional, et cetera.

This is all well and good.

However, there is immense power to be had if you EMBRACE your role.

-- Don’t just quietly speak your lines; boldly perform them! --

Imagine your life is a movie and you are playing the lead role. 

And act as someone playing a lead role in a popular movie would!

The benefits of this are twofold:

- Others will begin to see you differently and will remember you because you stand-out from the crowd.

-You will begin to feel more empowered and confident in everything you do.

Think about your favorite actor or actress in Hollywood:

How do they act?

What do you like about them?

What makes them memorable to you?

(Let me know in the comments below!)

Now, I’m not saying start going around being obnoxious in your social performances; indeed there is such a thing as over-acting, which tends to be seen as comical.

But by performing your part with audacity, courage, and energy, you will quickly become a smash hit in the Box Office that is society!

Look Good, Feel Great!

  Look Good, Feel Great!: Looking good is a huge part of style, and it’s the most obvious part, in my opinion. Most of the time, people start dressing-up because they want to convey a message to those around them. But there’s a second, much more important aspect of style and personal image. That being how style makes a person FEEL When you look good, you feel great! And even more than that, your feelings will radiate out onto other people who will be drawn to you. Style to me has always been about feeling my best; in fact, style was a significant part of me overcoming my body image issues. I was never really one to seek compliments or enjoy flattery– even though that stuff obviously comes with looking your best– rather what mattered to me was how style literally changed the way I felt. I remember putting on my first suit and feeling the most empowered I have ever felt. Not only that, but I noticed pretty quickly how everywhere I went I was treated differently.  People started ...
  Art can be incredibly motivating and being around art can have an immensely empowering effect on us.  It’s a similar effect to one experienced while being surrounded by religious relics or statues– art can make us feel invigorated and influenced by something greater than ourselves. It’s almost like experiencing what John Keats called the Sublime in a more easily accessible way.  According to Romanticist writers like Keats, the Sublime is defined as a meeting of the subjective-internal and objective-external, and is the strongest emotion we as Humans can experience.  It typically requires us to put ourselves in awe-inspiring situations like seeing the sunrise from the peak of a mountain or looking up at a statue that towers over us. Instead of climbing a mountain or finding a huge statue though, with art we only need to go to a museum or into our living room, if we’re collectors. There are many different types of art and genres, all of which can have a powerful effe...
