Ok ladies and gents, I’ve mostly been in the shadows when it comes to the forum but I had…an epiphany, and I just had to share it.
One of the phrases that people use around here is matching the pheros with your personality. Well it kinda got me thinking about a movie(roll with me here, it’ll make sense soon).
Think about it, in movies they usually ask people with similar personality traits to play a certain character because they fit that role. In Spiderman for example Tobey McGuire plays Peter Parker/Spiderman and he does it pretty darn well. Why? Because his personality fits that role!
Now for a real world example: ME. In high school I had almost gave up on pheros because I felt they just weren’t working. But then I thought, maybe I’m playing the wrong character? So I instead bought IH, IO, Ammo, and IS, made a few character adjustments and BAM! Hits!
So what I’m saying is maybe we should do a character requirement checklist like so.
Instant Honest/ Instant Openess Key Requirements:
Can hold/ open a conversation
Meshes well with others
High energy, AKA energizer bunny
Good with jokes
Basically what I’m saying is that it would help people better see if a certain mix is for them if they see what kind of character requirments are necessary to play that “role”, if you will.
So if you’ve got a mix, put it here and also post your requirement for said mix. It’s okay if people have similar mixes because honestly, there are personality types that go surprisingly well with mixes that most wouldn’t think would. Oh, and maybe Tisha or Jasmine could post a similar thread in the women’s forums?
Interesting idea. But… I use Instant Openness to make myself good at opening conversations… and it makes me mesh better with others… energy I haven’t noticed so much… but it makes me better with jokes. So isn’t that a bit off? You’re saying you have those as requirements, while I use it to cause/enhance those things…
True, but I also said that’s it’s okay if everyone had different “requirements” for their mix. But you raise an intereting point though.
But since pheros are “amps” then suppose a person is 8/10 with opening conversations w/o pheros. If they add pheros it will probably go up to 10/10 or 12/10.
Plus, even though you have an edge you must still be a “go getter” and “go get it”.
This ties into something that I’ve been thinking about lately. When using Pheromones are we looking to change our character or bolster our character? Are we using products to fill in percieved holes in our armour of attractiveness or to enhance our existing qualities? In other words are we looking to change our personalities or at least the way we are percieved by others or to enhance our existing qualities and become ‘me but more’? And which is the best route to take?
I know that for my part there are certain products that I have more trouble assimilating (A314 for instance) and have had to play about with for a lot longer than others. There are also some that seem to fit like a second skin and with which I can’t seem to go wrong with. Perhaps it’s my personality type meaning that it’s easier for me to become one with a certain signature, maybe it’s others perceptions of me not gelling with the signals they’re recieveing, maybe I’m blowing smoke and it just needs more work from me with certain products. I’m not sure, what do we think?
There are times; I swear the Pheromones effect me (especially the socials) more than those around me … maybe 60% / 40%. They effect how I view those around me as well as give me confidence in meeting people. So Cat man I think your right.
