Improving Our “Signals” and “Beings”

It’s been broadcasted all over the world. It has said to be one of the most universally reported events that doesn’t involve an act of terrorism.

Steve Irwin’s death.

Otherwise known as the “Crocodile Hunter”, he became the figure of reptiles and especially Australia. Wrestling vicious animals like they were harmless creatures.

Why do you think Steve had so many people who not only knew about him, but loved him?

Being Australian, I know he’s done a great deal for this country. He helped Australian Tourism skyrocket, saved creatures, taught children about animals, and inspired many people. What stands out of all his achievements was his charismatic personality that made him so widely loved by many people drawing their attention and attracting a lot of media attention.

It wasn’t his job of wrestling crocs that made people like him. There are a tonne of other animal wrestlers out there that put their bodies on the line that people don’t know of and even hate. I even think someone tried to once sue Steve over the “Crocodile Hunter” name. It was Steve’s personality that made him so widely loved.

This begs me to ask you, what following do you have? Do you have people that love you because of what you do or who you are? Are they attracted to you and are proud to know you? Are they a better person because they know you?

This is what developing your communication and self is also about. You are developing the many areas within yourself for not only your own good, but for the good of others. You can learn to make people like you through more effective communication and at the same time you are improving other’s lives just like Steve did.

When you improve yourself and especially improve your communication, you begin to attract people and more favorable emotions out of people you already know. These emotions people experience go beyond feeling more attracted to you (attraction includes every person and thing that is drawn towards you), they inspire the person.

The person feels better about him/herself. They desire to follow in your foot steps and learn the skills you have learned and this of course leads to amazing paths. These people reach new personal development ground otherwise untouchable if not for your influence.

Look at the wide outreach and influence Steve had on people. A lot of people became happier, they become less fearful of “dangerous” animals, and I’m sure quite a few would have tried to replicate Steve’s life-filled personality. Take a look at Steve’s daughter, Bindy. Never have I seen someone so young and have communication skills and a personality that adults would only dream of. The way she communicates confidence, certainty, and clarity is amazing. Bindy is entirely in a class of her own. A strong part of Bindy’s amazing skills would have been how Steve and his wife Terry raised her, but had they not possessed the personality and communication skills themselves, then Bindy would not be the girl she is today.

Improving yourself goes beyond the self-centered benefits. By effectively communicating you inspire others to grow themselves.

Thanks Steve for being such a inspiration!
