Stop Judging People On First Impressions

Often, people are extremely particular in what they share to others.
Majority of us are paranoid and cautious being who take the first step in letting people enter into our lives.
From the other person's standpoint, it could have give an impression of me being "Stuck up" or "Uninterested", but in reality, I know that was far from the case.

I think that it is common that not everyone likes to divulge his or her entire life story just within the first few encounter.
Purely because, not everybody is an open books who can easily reveal a segment of ourselves to someone who we does not know well. No? Yes?
For me, I usually have my guard up as I needs time and trust, in order to reveal my awesomeness to someone that came into my life.


Of course, it goes without saying that the first impressions are limited in many ways.
Sure, I can get either a positive or negative vibe about a person but more often than not, it really limits my ability to get to know someone beyond a superficial level.

People aren't all that easy to figure out, there are layers and layers behind a persona and sometimes, in order to peel those layers off, time is an essential factor to do so.
I always try to not let a first impression be the guiding point to someone's overall demeanor.
Everyone deserves more than just an initial judgement call. At least, that's what I think.

If I give a valiant effort to something, day in and day out, I saw no change, I will probably quit too.
So there's a need to sharpen my arsenal for perfection in what I can be.
And to always try to get up and go at it again and go at it again.
Because in life, it's not the genetic guy who wins, or the guy who has the most potential who wins, it's the person with great perseverance who wins. That is the guy that I need to be...
