How many of us have attended an event solely because there was someone we wanted to meet? Or how many of us have fallen into the belief that there was an event that we needed to attend because ‘certain people’ would be there?
The reality is most of us truly want to be exposed to people who may help us improve our position personally and professionally.
However, have you ever given thought to the reality that YOU are the person that people want to be around??
You may not realize it but with each passing day, you become more proficient in your profession. With every new event, you expand your circle of influence. With every new opportunity, you grow your expertise.
As you do, you are going to find that there will be a growing number of people who will want to be in your personal space. As such, you will find there will be a huge desire to include you in different activities and events. The reason this is being done is because, whether you believe it or not, legitimize the space you are. You are the ‘draw’ for others to attend the activity.
If you are ok with this, then you should not feel bad but just realize that you are special and that there are going to be more and more people who are going to want to capitalize on the uniqueness of YOU!
