The "Faithe" Brand

When people think of you, a certain image or connotation comes to mind. That’s your (personal) brand. And everyday you are building your brand, in how you deal with people, the decisions you make, and in every situation you encounter.Examples of a personal brand are: Compassionate, generous, sloppy, unreliable, etc.What do you think of when you think of the brands we are use to seeing/hearing about: I.e. Mercedes Benz - luxury, San Antonio Spurs - dynasty, Obama - hero, etc, etc.

They say the older you get, the harder it is to change your ways/feelings/habits, etc. Since personal development is important to me, I want to make it a priority in my life to always better myself. And to become better is not staying the say all the time, but recognizing changes that need to be made along the way. After all, who wants their lasting impression to be a bad one?

So, I am building my brand. I want to make sure that the brand I "hope" comes to mind when people think of me is indeed the one they have. If it isn't, this is where the tearing down and building up begins.

So what I want you all to do is this: Make a list of 5-10 things that comes to your mind when you think of or interact with me (words or phrases). These should be things that most closely associates your interaction with me. With your list(s), I can take your answers & compare them to my own and start building my brand. Everybody is not going to tell the "complete" truth because it may offend, but be as honest as possible. One of the things on my list was "sensitivity" so don't go too hard on me folks ;).
