Question of the Day
Are you likable?
It’s the kind of question that makes you pause for a second. Sure, most of us want to be likable. But what does that even mean? Is it about being agreeable and polite? Or is it about something deeper?
I used to think being likable meant never rocking the boat. I thought if I could just be easy to be around, always friendly, always agreeable, people would like me more. But here’s the thing: the more I tried to be everyone’s cup of tea, the more I felt like a lukewarm cup of… well, not much.
Turns out, being likable isn’t about smoothing out all your edges. It’s about being true to who you are, even if that means some people won’t vibe with you. And that’s okay. Real likability, I’ve learned, comes from authenticity, not approval.
So today, I’m asking: Are you likable? And maybe more importantly, are you likable because you’re trying to be, or because you’re actually showing up as yourself?
