Wednesdays (or fridays :) Words of Encouragement #6

The word "judgement" has a negative connotation, but realistically we all make and receive judgements on a regular basis. Once you start accepting this reality, it becomes easier to lessen the sensitivity to these perceptions. However, if you are really looking for a way to stop people from judging you, consider the following:
The way you dress
The words you speak
Your body language
The people you surround yourself with

For the most part, you are in charge of the way people perceive you so if you'd like people to be receptive to the person you consider yourself to be, you must act according to those considerations.

You can't always be late and expect your friends to trust you. You can't get a job if you use the word "homie" during the interview, you can't expect a business man to be receptive to you if you walk into a building with your jean shorts hanging down to your knees, and you can't expect a woman to love you if you abused them in the past.

Remember, people judge you according to what you provide them with, so be smart and give people the YOU you want them to SEE.
