As such, it often means different things to different people. And so, before continuing any further along with this series, I thought it appropriate to assign a little homework.

Or maybe instead you see someone like Hilary Clinton or Oprah Winfrey. Perhaps even your idea of mysterious appeal is in the form of Rhianna or Beyonce.

To help you in this quest, you might consider browsing through a handful of women's magazines to see which people and photos you like most. And then ask yourself why you like them.

I've been thinking about how I define "Je Ne Sais Quoi" since you launched this topic. I think first and foremost, women with it know who they are {and aren't trying to be something they aren't}. And even more than that, they love who they are and surround themselves with people that love who they are too. This comfort with herself leads to a radiant confidence.
ReplyDeleteI also think of these women as interesting. Whether it's intelligence, humor, or a special talent {or all three!}, they have a trait that draws you in and keeps you interested. They're magnetic.
I also think that physical appearance plays into it. I don't think that means you have to be the stereotypical "beauty", but your look is engaging - - maybe unique, maybe vintage, maybe modern, maybe classic beauty - - but always well done.
My thoughts. :)
Catherine--I love that you used the word "magnetic." Wouldn't it be great if that was the way we were described by others?! And I agree that knowing who you are is key. Because trying to be someone else is just striving, and it shows. We don't want to look like we're trying too hard--so the challenge is to be at peace instead!
ReplyDeleteGreat thoughts as usual!
