Are you an ESTHER or a DELILAH?

HOW ARE YOU USING YOUR INFLUENCE?















The Female possesses some of the world's most lethal and awesome qualities.

Our uniqueness, style, charisma, diversity are just a FEW things that set us apart from the male gender. But one of the most lethal is that of INFLUENCE.


How are you using your influence?

Both women, Delilah and Esther, were women of influence but they possessed variable traits and mentalities that highlighted WHY their influenced work.


If you know the story of Sampson and Delilah, you will remember that she used her OBVIOUS influence: beauty and manipulation.


We live in a society that is drenched with reality shows that center around women pressed to find love at all costs.
Though I have a few reality shows that I like, I am hesitant to even call these women's perception of what they want real love.


Delilah figured that the QUICKEST way to get her answers out of Sampson was to exploit her femininity.

Each woman has to know what she's worth and primarly decide what kind of woman she wants to be.

Men are quick to assess what kind of women we are. I've met far too many men that are quick to say that women are always interested in what he can do for her and how much he can do for her.


How do you use your influences for good?
How do you use your influences for bad?


Delilah was a manipulator, opportunist, selfish and preyed on men that were weak for her obvious assests.


THEN WE HAVE ESTHER...


I want you to view Esther as a timeless woman in QUALITY but let's bring her into modern day.

The one thing I like about her was that she was very clever. Not in a sly manner but a very wise one.

She was a woman of timing. She was a woman of thought. She was a woman of taste.


Though she had the ear of the king she still recognized that there was always a way to do certain things.

I'm sure she was a beautiful woman as the king would have it no other way but she was not known for her beauty alone (Vashti was).


How do you want to be perceived?
How do you want to be discussed?


While it is wonderful to be beautiful it is just as important to be a quality woman.


HOW ARE YOU USING YOUR INFLUENCE?
How do men talk about you when you aren't around?

I'm not saying don't have fun and don't be sexy. I'm encouraging you to be wise and clever with your influences. Make a positive reputation for yourself.
You want MEMORABLE---not "embarrasing" memorablex but "extraordinarily breaktaking" memorable!
