This is the first of a two-part discussion.  Essentially these discussions are about the same thing.  Us and how we relate to our world, what is and isn't important. The second part (in another posting) relates to your activity here.

There are two themes in each of these sets of questions.  The first is one of "How do I portray myself" to the world and to me?  The second is ways that we feel we could do better.  These are both fairly high risk questions in that we are telling everyone else out there about our interior lives and we are dealing more with feelings than opinion.

This first discussion is about you.  How do you feel personally and what are your thoughts?

Given the above, here are a couple short questions:

1. What is my message? Otherwise, this is known as your 'brand'.  This is how you want people here to see you and what you want to convey to them.
2. What is it that you would like better for others to "get" about you?  Sometimes our message and our actions convey different things, and that's not necessarily bad.  As long as we have to communicate with others through our limited means this will always be an issue, no matter how hard we try.

Notice, this is on two levels, one for you personally, and the other discussion will be for your activity on this site.

For responses, please be thoughtful and considerate, especially where others have put their feelings out.  Please be kind and considerate in your responses.  If you have something too personal to say, please respond to the individual in a private message.
