Your “Image” Handbook
Most often people think Image is “Superficial”, it is fake. And they wish to resort to, “Main jaisa hoon theek hoon” (I am fine the way I am).
OR
They feel, “I don’t need to work on my “Personality” or Image, as my work will speak for itself!”
Well to be honest, there is truth to each statement but it’s a half truth.
I’d like to share my learnings of what Image really is:
The way a person looks is of little or no importance, to some people. But the fact is, everyone creates an Image. Everyone leaves a mark and makes their presence felt, whether in a positive or negative way.
Our Image is an essential part of the human experience. It is what expresses the role, status, calibre,culture, ethnicity or position in society, of an individual, group or organisation.
Our Image, is the way we look, care for and carry ourself, our style, poise and presence. Which in turn affects the way we think, feel, act and behave. Because this inturn, reflects our sense of self, personality, values, attitudes and interests in life. Surprised?

Yes, There is so much our Image speaks about, loud and clear.
The viewer might not be able to put the exact details of our image into words. But there is a snapshot of these elements that gets registered into their brain because Non- Verbal Communication occurs through sight and touch. It is a silent, visual communication which is an immediate and important communication skill that plays a major role in everyday interaction. And that is our IMAGE!
So every time that we are visible to someone we ought to take stock of what we are projecting! Let me know of any topics you’d like me to write on, in the comments below.
