Value is simply the usefulness and
importance of something or someone. According to Albert Einstein, person should not try to be a person of success but
to rather be a person of value. I believe the
reason he said this is that value is directly
connected to success. The equation is
simple, the more valuable you are, the
more successful you are. We shouldn’t
equally forget that value is connected to
influence. When value grows, influence
grows.
Here are ways to become a person of
value and influence;
Find and pursue Purpose and passion:
The great and influential men and women the
world has ever known where those who
discovered and pursued their purposes
and were driven by their passions. When
you are on the path of purpose, it is easier
to add significant value to the lives of
people. You will hardly be of any
significant value to people or influence
them when you don’t know where you are
going. Purpose ignites passion which
keeps one motivated, inspired and
focused. You need all that to be valuable
and influential.
Embrace Personal development:
Becoming a person of value and influence
demands embracing a life long pursuit of
personal development. Personal
development is a process of
understanding and developing oneself to
realize one’s fullest potential. The extent to
which you are able to add value and
influence others depends on the extent to
which you have been able to develop
yourself. Every raw material has little or no
value. It actually becomes valuable after it
has been refined. Take time to refine
yourself in every area. That could be hard
but it is quite rewarding. Daily ask
yourself, “What do I need to learn or do to
become a better person? Your value
depends on the value you offer.
Choose A Problem You Can Solve For
People:
To be a person of value and
influence, you have to become genuinely
interested in people enough to solve a
specific problem for them. Think of what
you can do to make lives better. The more
people you solve their problems, the more
valuable and influential you become.
Be Original and Unique: When we live our
lives mimicking or imitating others, it steals
our originality. Guess what? Imitations
don’t get much attention, originals do. I
believe you’ve heard that when you
imitate someone else, the best you can be
is second best. That’s very true. To be a
person of influence don’t be any one else.
Be YOU. Yes! YOU.
Pursue Excellence:
Becoming a person of
value and influence is not going to be
much about what you do but about how
well you do it. It is said that whatever
worth doing is worth doing well. Go
beyond the usual. Add a touch of class in
all you do. That’s what excellence is all
about. But mind you it is not the same as
perfection.
Encourage & Inspire Others:
Someone
once said a candle does not go off by
lightning another. Find a way to encourage
and inspire others to be all they can be.
Empower, share your knowledge and skills
with others. Your value and influence is
connected to the number of lives that are
better because of you.
Exude Confidence:
Self-confidence is one
quality that’s very admirable. it is about
knowing what you want and having the
courage and boldness to go for it. When
you are self-confident, people easily get
attracted to you and when you do no have
it, the opposite becomes the case. Are you
wondering why? The reason is simple.
What value do you think a person who
does not believe in himself can offer? Your
guess is as good as mine.
Integrity:
It is true that none of us is
perfect but for you to be a person of value
and influence you have to be able to earn
people’s confidence and trust. You should
be able to live by certain values that
uphold sound moral principles. Integrity
means doing the right thing at all times
and in all circumstances, whether or not it
is convenient. It is about being sincere and
real. It is about being honest enough to
admit it when you are wrong. It is your
“yes” as “yes” and your “no” as “no”. It is
people trusting
