Your presence in itself is not value
Reputation adds value to your presence, it is crafted in absence
Warriors went off to war, when they returned home from their absence
They had a new reputation, making their presence admired & respected
Your reputation precedes you

When we meet new people one of the first questions asked is:
"What do you do?"
It's also on everyone's social media bio's
It's one of the required inputs on dating apps
Humans are wired to conserve energy
Which means 2 things..

1) Before our brain gives us 'motivation' to invest time & energy into anything
It needs a 'motive', a reason
Getting a feel for someone's 'value' is the brain seeking to determine:
"Is it worth investing attention & energy in this person/thing"

Here's the point of this thread2) Less processing power making the unknown known then boxing it
We unconsciously create boxes
Placing people into a predetermined summary for easy future accessTo not always have to figure out who they are
(wasting processing power)
It is for this reason...
Total strangers likely hold a higher opinion of you than your hometown circle
If you've grown a lot in the last 2 years
New people you meet 'process' that & immediately reflect it
Whereas people who have known you for 5 years
Still have the old mold

"a prophet is not without honor except in his hometown & family home" - Matthew 13:57It takes either massive time or massive change for the hometown circle to adjust
Even then it will still have elements of the previous mold
Not always a bad thing, sometimes catastrophic
This is why it is MUCH harder to escape the friend zone
Then it is to meet someone new
"You can't teach an old dog new tricks"
You can, but it's difficult
It's easier to train a salesman with ZERO experience
Than it is to train one with 5 years of experience but no results

Zero experience rookie
You'll only have to show him the strategy
5 years experience but no results guy....
You'll also show him strategy
BUT you'll also need to get him to unlearn his current bad strategies, habits, limiting beliefs, assumptions

Sadly humans fear venturing into the unknown
Without exposure to new people & environments
The collective projection of who others believe we are becomes who we unconscious 'must' fit into
"I am no who I think I am
I am not who you think I am
I am who I think you think I am"

What's funny about this entire thing is....
It's easy to feel more like ourselves around strangers
They're reflecting back to you who you are TODAY
It feels true, congruent, untainted
With non-strangers it can be a distorted reflection
Part current self, part past self
