Ladies of Hive Community Contest #188 - How people perceive me
The questions for this week @Ladiesofhive - Contest # 188 are:
1οΈβ£ How have you handled being the βnew kidβ in your lifetime?
~ πππ / ππ ~
2οΈβ£ How do people see you? How do you wish people saw you?
Being the "new kid" - Something that I have encountered couple of times. By nature I like to keep exploring different areas of life and in my circle I do not have many who will join me every-time, so most of my exploration is solo, where I become the odd one out. I remember this one particular incident very well, it is not related to some solo adventure but this was when I was a part of the corporate world. I worked in travel domain for the first 10 years of my career and then I was suddenly moved to HR within the Company. It was barely two weeks and my boss nominated me to attend a HR seminar which was full of senior people. I was not the junior most work experience wise, but in the field of HR in that room I was the junior most, without any HR qualifications or degree standing along with highly qualified people in the field.
I had to be confident in that room and not show the naive side of me to all those in the room. Even though I did not have HR skills, but one thing that I have always been good at is the people management skills and I am always up to date with the current affairs news. Though I am never the first one to strike a conversation, but if need be then I will make the first move. In that room, that day I used my people management skills along with my current affairs knowledge and that helped me shine through. After that seminar, I became known to many senior people in my organization and they started turning to me for HR related matters. To an extent I did win everyone's attention that evening. I felt proud of that and my boss was happy too.
How people perceive me - I am a very confident and outspoken person, but yet, I am shy of making the first move. It is difficult for me to strike a conversation and this brings different ideas to different people about me. Some think I am arrogant, and some think I am shy. The other problem with me is, I have always looked younger then my age and this makes some people believe that I lack experience of life. I come out as a confused personality to different types of people.
This specially happens in my healing work, where people go with my appearance and my way of conducting myself, they think that I must have been raised up in total comfort and luxury to understand other people's problems. And sometimes they pass comments like, You will not understand, you must have never faced any problems in your life. Whereas, the fact is that my life has always been full of obstacles right from my childhood, and I do empathize with them when they talk about their problems.
Honestly, I do not have any expectations of how people should perceive me. I believe each one to their own. I am myself and I am not going to change to suit anyone's expectation, neither do I expect them to make efforts to think about me in a manner that I desire. It's fine with me as far as I am true to myself and conscious about my ways, I do not really care of what other's think.
Thank you for visiting my blog. πΌπ»πΌπ»πππΉπΊπΈ

Hi dearest, I personally perceive you as kind hearted, generous and very very good π₯°π₯° It's fascinating how people's perceptions can differ from reality. I've found that staying true to myself is the best thing to do, regardless of others' expectations. It's very very liberating to embrace authenticity without worrying about others' opinions. Have a lovely Friday dearest
That's very kind of you.
Absolutely, being honest with yourself is the best way to live life then no matter what other think of you. You really do not have to prove yourself to anyone
Yes dearest, you're absolutely right... We shouldn't prove ourselves to anyone.. live our best lives and enjoy every single moment

Hello Ma'am @nainaztengra I perceived you as a sweet daughter to your mom and a loving wife to your husband. You are an empowered woman and very optimistic about life.
Thank you, it's an honor to hear such positive words from someone who has not even met me. Family is everything to me and I can do anything for them
I love how you βrose to the occasion β in your conclusion to say you canβt tell someone how to perceive you, youβre yourself and wonβt change for anyone.
I have known you from afar and what I can say is youβre really polite and kind and well composed and loving tooβ¦ so yes, donβt change that for anyone.
Thank you, I believe that we all deserve respect in life and to get respect first you need to learn to give the same only then you deserve it.

Greetings @nainaztengra I have always thought that people talk for the sake of talking, really getting to know people is what allows us to know the reality, I love your content and I really appreciate the woman you are as an example to follow. A hug.
Thank you very much for the faith that you have on me. It is a blessing to hear words like these
Donβt mind people who feel you lack experience of life. There is nothing actually better than looking younger than your age
Youβre beautiful, mamaβ€οΈ

Thank you. Oh yes, for this particular thing I am very proud of myself and never care for what other's think.
I agree ma'am. Let them believe what they think and let them discover that they're wrong. π
Hehe, ya you need to live your life and not bother much for other's think
I agree ma'am. π Focus on your own goal, as long as you didn't harm anyone,keep going on.π This is what I always think everyday. π
What a phenomenal read! π I love that you had faith in your natural skills, and let your confidence shine in the seminar! Playing things by ear and going with the flow can ease us through so many challenges.
The attitude you took towards being the "new girl" is a great way to have a solid foundation in any situation I think. As is what you said later on about other people's perceptions:
ππ This resonated with my heart. We should aim to do no harm, and otherwise just follow our own path... it can be hard to stay in this mindset, so I like to remind myself of the famous quote "What other people think is none of my business". π
Thanks for sharing this wonderful reflection !LADY π
You have already used the number of tips you had for the day. Please try again tomorrow or buy more LOH tokens to send more tips.
While I was trying to be bold and confident but from within I was so nervous and just trying to hold up on that evening.
That's a very apt quote for life :-)
