What do Donald Trump, Oprah Winfrey and Robin Williams have in common? These successful icons never present a watered down version of themselves to the world. So why then do most professionals play it safe and hide their creativity, quirkiness, spirit, spark and passion?
If you are presenting a "diluted" version of yourself to the world, you are literally suffocating your business. If your business doesn't just die altogether, it will absolutely be stifled and less successful unless you explore and expose what thrills you, irks you, stimulates you, bores you and amuses you!
One of the quickest and easiest ways you can get booked solid with high paying clients is to be the quirky, authentic and confident soul who says it like it is and filters nothing!
Toss out the society-accepted version of you and stop worrying so much about what others will think. Just be the radiant person you are when you are relaxing with the people you love the most.
As soon as you let your authentic side shine, not only will you feel more confident and self-assured but your ideal clients will be immediately attracted to you. As a side benefit, you'll also send away the not so right people faster so you can spend all your productive hours being exceptional!
