Thanks a MILLION for your responses , friends .
My objective is to make us all realize that there is an assortment of Images attached to ourselves. In other words whenever your names comes to anybody minds - several impressions pop up which they associate with you. Of these some are strong and some not so strong. There could be one which is the most prominent too.
A MIND MAP, if done on you, could help you identify those impressions. But they are not as per your design and that's Unfortunate. Can you design a mind map - an ideal bouquet of impressions with your core identity leading the lot? YOU CAN ... , YOU CERTAINLY CAN .
Just a word of caution - Its not about JUST the exterior , ( although that's damn important) but an intrinsic aspect to your personality that can make long lasting impressions , EVOKE POSITIVE FEELING in others and leave a lingering impression Making PEOPLE SEEK MORE OF YOU !!!!
HOW CAN YOU MAKE THE WORLD YOUR SEEKER?
Well lets take this forward. BUT In order to ensure that we don't keep the cart before the horse , a little discussion on 'Brand' in general.
Stories of Success and Failures of brands over the last century have thrown up a myriad questions. The reasons for their acceptance and causes of rejection have been debated within organizations and stakeholder groups.
Awareness and Recognition leads to brand prominence, but does this prominence necessarily lead to an association or a bond? That was the moot point. It’s one thing to appreciate and admire the brand from the outside ; and another thing to adopt it .

It’s proven beyond
doubt that Brand resilience and longevity are the benefits of establishing
Brand relevance. That’s Relevance to the consumers’ life and relevant in the
prevailing climate.
Well Well don't get me wrong - establishing relevance does NOT mean diluting the Uniqueness.
In my next post I am going to touch upon the benefits of image building & the fruits of image building. And will relate that to Personal Brand Building too.
I urge all my friend to please contribute to this blog by sharing their views on this subject. You could also share , if you will , your identified desirable element of your image or otherwise ( if you need help to improve upon it.)
We will see how you can work on it , or further improve on your unique strength/s and make it YOUR Personal Brand Identity.
Cheers !
