Every individual possesses a certain degree of personal magnetism, but may not appreciate their gift and are not equipped to develop the art of increasing this power. If one attempts to force the art of magnetism, it becomes a repellant rather than an attractant.
Here are 5 qualities to develop personal magnetism.
Develop a Deep Desire To Master The Principles of Human Relationships
Dale Carnegie published in 1937 his best selling book, "How To Win Friends and Influence People." In this book, Carnegie shared some of most relevant secrets to influencing people. Anyone, with practice and application, can develop these principles. Some of them are:
- Fundamental Techniques in Handling People
- Six Ways To Make People Like You
- How To Win People To Your Way Of Thinking
- Be a Leader: How to Change People Without Giving Offensive or Arousing Resentment
When I was a young minister, this was one of the first books I read to begin the journey to being able to effectively develop relationships and leadership in myself. I've continued my education and have read many other books by top business and relationship influencers such as Zig Zigglar, Brian Tracy, Earl Nightingale, Tony Robbins, Norman Vincent Peal, and Dennis Waitley.
Develop a P.O.W. Attitude.
When you hear P.O.W. what do you immediately think? Prisoner of War, Power of Women? Prince of Whales? Waitley wrote a book and calls it Psychology of Winning. People are drawn magnetically to those who possess a tenacity and vision and believe that they can and will win, no matter what obstacles present themselves. You'll observe top leaders in sports, business, and politics that have this quality. They have already won the top medal of honor in their endeavor, and that's the medal of self respect and vision for a positive future. Develop this quality in yourself, and others will be drawn to you.
Develop A Desire To Learn Practical and Relevant Information
Some of the most introverted and ineffective influencers of humanity have been highly educated. So I'm not simply suggesting education in and of itself makes one influential. Education that can bless others and lift them to a higher level in business, relationships, and skill is very attractive to people however. When you open your mouth, wisdom and practical knowledge beneficial to your listeners should radiate if you desire the power of personal magnetism.
Develop An Attitude of Serving Others
Selfishness repels. Service attracts. Every person feels deep satisfaction when they do something meaningful for someone else. That's why we are innately drawn to those we observe being of service to others. We want to imitate that quality in ourselves.
If you think about influential men who have demonstrated this quality in history, who comes to mind? Ghandi? He led an entire national revolution by passively serving others and conveying a vision for hope and life as it could be for his followers. Martin Luther King did the same. And of course, Jesus of Nazareth. He said, "I have not come to be served, but to serve." All of these men magnetically drew massive numbers of people to them because they served others rather than allowing themselves to BE served.
Develop Uncompromising Integrity
David Hakala's article on HR World said, "Integrity is the integration of outward actions and inner values. A person of integrity is the same on the outside and on the inside. Such an individual can be trusted because he or she never veers from inner values, even when it might be expeditious to do so."
Integrity is going back to the store and paying for an item the cashier overlooked at the check out. It's reporting that extra income on your taxes that no one else will discover. It's being honest to admit you are wrong if you said or did something wrong or made a mistake. Have this type of character and people will be drawn to you. Lack it, and you'll be seen as a hypocrite.
If you want the attribute of personal magnetism, you can develop it. Follow these four simple suggestions and you'll be on a path to becoming magnetic!
To your greatest success!
