Do You Try to Impress Others?

October 6, 2021

Have you ever tried to make an impression on others?

A few days ago, I ran a poll on Instagram — and 81% of respondents said yes.

Interesting and thought-provoking, isn’t it?

Most people admit they try to make an impression on others. In a way, that’s natural — after all, we’re social beings.
But on the other hand, this very tendency often separates us from one another and prevents us from forming real contact, from creating deep emotional connections where people truly meet.

What does it mean to “make an impression”?

It means behaving or appearing in a way that others will like you, admire you, be interested in you, or give you compliments.

But when we try to impress someone, we are not in true connection — neither with that person nor with ourselves. Deep inside, we often feel an emptiness we’re trying to fill. We use people to strengthen the roles we play, to protect the self-image we’ve built — or to hide the parts we don’t like.

If we truly seek authentic relationships, the first step is to notice what’s actually driving us in our interactions. Then, we can start replacing these unconscious behaviors with those that help us express our real selves — to feel free, light, and open to building genuine, healthy relationships.

That’s what inner transformation is all about.

Which would you rather have — superficial connections or real ones?
