Do you ever imagine what the world would be like if Attention Seekers don’t exist ?
So peaceful because there is no one that drawing too much attention ?
Or in the contrary, so empty because there is no people that can lighten and cheer up the world for a bit ?
Well in between, we can take some good points from the Attention Seekers’ behavior and apply them to us, without getting excessive and in some good ways of course.
That 6 ideas can be :
1. They change their appearance a lot and usually do mismatch physical attributes to draw people attention where ever they go.
Sometimes the clothes they are wearing are not suitable to their body, like wearing the clothes or dresses too tight to expose what they have.
Wearing accessories that not match with their current outfit.
Or wearing costumes that do not suit to the situation they attend to.
Ideas : You can be unique and being yourself in wearing costumes and physical attributes that suit your personality with a good arrangement on all of those, depends on the event that you want to attend to.
2. Always talk about themselves in public
Where ever there is a crowd of people, they will always be there to monopolize the talks and tell everybody about everything that related to them.
They love to be the center of the conversation and enjoy the attention from people a lot.
Ideas : You can be the center of the crowd by talking about something that can draw their interests, not only talking about yourself but it is more about the interesting things you can share with them.
3. Setting a drama
Sometimes the Attention Seekers make up a drama so people can give fully attention to them, they can be trouble makers too at that time.
They will do anything in purpose to make people do care about them and do what ever they want.
Ideas : You can set a condition or situation that can make people give some attentions to you, maybe can be a little bit of drama, but in a good way.
For example, you need to gather a fund raising to help the orphanage so you let people know about their condition that need help immediately.
You can show them how you feel and your thoughts about the orphan child, and tell them how they would be if we do not help them.
It is ok to show them your emotions too, if you think it will help you to make them give some donations to the orphanage.
It is for the greater good anyway.
4. Post status in social media about themselves and doing selfies a lot
Attention Seekers only think about themselves, so they like to post status in social media as many as they can about what they are doing, where they go, how they feel about something, whom they are with, and many others.
Also they tend to do selfies a lot, every time, everywhere, and post them into their social media so people can give comments to their posts.
Ideas : You can post status in social media about yourself and doing selfies in a proper way, with good reasons to do it, also with the additional purposes of sharing info.
For instance, you are in the coffee shop hang out with your besties, you find some delicious coffee and yummy cakes there that you think you would like to share the info to other people.
So it is good to share them in your social media, not only you talk about yourself but you can tell people about something useful too, that people may like or need the info also.
5. Brag about their achievements
They usually like to brag about their achievements toward their goals, whether they reach the achievements in a proper way or not.
As long as they can brag about something, they do not care what people say about it.
They just need other people to congratulate them of what they achieve.
Ideas : You can tell people about your achievements that you reach with your best efforts and not for bragging purpose, it is more important to show people about your hard work all this time and also you can motivate others to do the same with you, by letting them know how you do it transparently.
6. Show off about their new items they bought recently
The Attention Seekers like to buy decent items with expensive prices so they can announce them to public about their wealth.
Ideas : You can tell people about new expensive things you recently bought, with the purpose of sharing info that may be useful to them.
It is like you let people know about the sophisticated features that your new gadget have, so people can get some useful knowledge from it, without thinking about you only being bragging to them.
