Fragment of Memories: Being COOL

The Extremely COOL DOG

Being tagged as a Cool person, normally refers to someone who keeps his mouth shut most of the time and someone you don't wanna mess with.

Ask Andy Warhol, or someone like Miles Davis - who made great music but knew how to play his image : to be cool.

What is so good about being cool you ask? There is always people around us asking : “I've been working hard - why isn't it paying off?”

The truth is, we should always remind ourselves that - Life is like high school.

When you're in high school, it's ALL about popularity, clicks, being cool, what you wear, what parties you're at, etc.

When you go to college, the focus shifts to academic achievement.

Many people get out of college thinking the world will be like that. “The harder you work, the more you will be rewarded.” But it's not.

Life is like high school. It's all about who you know, how socially charming you are, what scene you're in, what you wear, what parties you're at, flirting, and being cool.

Agree or not for what I said, it's all up to you to decide. All your leaps and bounds are all because of "someone you know". So having mass network of good friends who are able to help you out are essential to be a ladder to keep you at the top, I mean mutualism friendship, especially in careers, and not some suck-up relationships.

Being cool is just one way people in the current days gain popularity, apparently so an undeniable fact. But there is also a portion of them who HATES people being cool.

Imagine in High School times, is it true that cool guys normally gains more popularity? Figure out yourself.

Ok, Here comes the funny part, on HOW TO BE COOL =P

LMAO!!!

Steps:

Act like you do not care what others think of you. We will always, on some level, be concerned with others' opinions of ourselves, but realize that ultimately, you will never be able to please everyone, so why bother trying? People have millions of ways to get under your skin. Learn to spot them and become immune. Be happy and have fun.
Be aware of how others will perceive you. This might seem to contradict the previous step, but there's a difference in letting people's judgments affect your self esteem, and being aware of how you come off to others. What you are really doing is being aware of how you look from another's perspective. In terms of physical appearance, beware of food getting stuck in your teeth, bad breath, body odor, toilet paper stuck to your shoe, etc. In terms of composure, try not to stare too much (it makes people uncomfortable), stand/sit up straight (it makes you look and feel more confident), smile generously, be polite and considerate, etc.
Present yourself in a positive way. Walk with good posture and look people in the eye. If you slump or stare at your feet, people won't respect you. You have to look and feel confident in order to receive the respect you need.
Find real friends. For example, if people don't hang out with you because you don't wear designer clothes, they are not real friends. Instead, find friends that see you for who you are. If the people standing in front of you can't see you for you, then how can they be your friend?
Don't be afraid to be different, whether that means standing up for yourself, defending someone else, or taking interest in something that no one else does, like playing an instrument or dancing when no one else will. The coolest people are the ones who occasionally break against the tide and make people question the status quo.
Speak up. Observe people who are "cool"--they usually speak confidently and clearly, at a good pace.
Learn how to laugh at yourself.
Write a list of all of the goals you are aiming for.
Take a deep breath. Being cool is all about being relaxed and comfortable in any circumstance. Don't lose your cool.
Be friendly, but not excessively eager.
Use appropriate language. Many people think it makes them cool when they cuss, but all it's really doing is showing that you're trying to be cool.
Refrain from using too many colloquialisms.

Above all, STAY HUMBLE k... LOL!! Vanity isn't Cool...

Still, there are other weird ways people consider them cool (at least I think so)

1st of all..
