Three tips for influencing others in a positive way (without faking it)
Let’s be real — we live in a world full of noise. Everyone’s trying to be heard, go viral, or “make an impact.” But if you're someone who’s grounded in faith and genuinely wants to live with purpose, you know there’s more to it than likes and followers.
You want your life to mean something. You want to inspire without pretending, to influence without compromising what you believe. You feel this pull — like you were created for more — and you're not alone.
Here are some real, faith-rooted ways to influence others in a way that actually matters:
1. Be Who You Needed
Think about the version of you that was lost, confused, doubting, or just tired. Be that voice, that encouragement, that light for someone else. Real influence starts when people feel seen. Sharing your story, even the messy and vulnerable parts, might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.
2. Live What You Believe
You don’t have to be perfect. But when you live in alignment with your faith — choosing grace over gossip, integrity over hype, prayer over panic — people will notice and be attracted to your vibe. It's not about preaching; it’s about showing up with consistency and love.
3. Ask Real Questions, Listen Deeply
Sometimes, influencing someone starts by not talking. Ask how they’re really doing. Don’t rush to fix. Just listen. In a world obsessed with speaking, listeners stand out — and they build trust.
