Every person is unique. Therefore, even being in the company of friends, everyone wants not to merge with the general mass, but to be an individual. Even if a person is by nature a pronounced follower, he sometimes gets tired of such a modest role, he wants to stand out against the general background, to become the soul of the company.
Instructions
Step 1
There are a lot of ways to stand out in the company, both quite reasonable and very extravagant, on the verge of shocking. Which of them to resort to - each person is prompted by reason and upbringing, the idea of decency, what is permissible and what is not.
Step 2
It is still better not to forget about the sense of proportion and reasonable caution. For example, if a guy tries to stand out against the general background with some risky trick, or builds a mohawk hairstyle, this will hardly speak in his favor. Rather, it will clearly demonstrate his frivolity and narrow-mindedness.
Step 3
First of all, soberly, impartially assess your abilities and capabilities: in what you are undoubtedly superior to your comrades in the company, and in what you are inferior. Compare yourself to the informal leader of the company, try to understand what qualities of him attract the attention of people. Think, accordingly, what qualities of yours can contribute to the advancement from the shadows.
Step 4
Do not try to break your nature, character. Be yourself. Naturalness and ease are very important in behavior. Take advantage of your own abilities. Do you know how to play guitar, sing - even at a very average amateur level? Excellent! The company will come in handy with its own bard, especially when going out into the countryside. Are you sharp on the tongue, know how to tell funny stories, anecdotes? So overcome shyness, demonstrate your skill! It will be properly appreciated.
Step 5
If you have an analytical mind, then nothing prevents you from playing the role of a wise advisor. Who can always suggest the best solution, a way out of a confused life situation. And this, of course, will set you apart from the general background, increase your authority.
Step 6
Well, what if you do not possess any of the above advantages? And there is no need to be upset. Not everyone is to be a leader. In the end, there is absolutely nothing bad or reprehensible in the role of a follower. Here it is only important not to forget about the measure, not to allow you to be manipulated.
