Why are some people more private than others?

Why are some people more private than others?

I wrote this blog for WA members because I have noticed that some find it strange that someone would not put their own image on their profile; whereas some would not even think of using anything else to represent them.

A photographer once told me that “Every picture has two faces”, what she meant by this is that most of the photographs that she had taken of people represented the image they wanted to portray and was not necessarily the real person.

The ‘Social Media Junkies’ are fanatical about looks as this is the main feature of the concept of ‘Social’, yet I do not agree with this concept of ‘Image is everything’.

I agree it goes a long way to trusting someone who you might want to buy something from, or one day marry but there is always two sides to everything.

My personal opinion is that one thing I liked about Wealthy Affiliates is that they never pressure you for anything; not even their premiums.

They leave you the ‘Choice’ and that was what endeared me to this community and the Founders; Kyle and Carson.

As far as my image is concerned when I first joined WA and was setting up my profile; the picture that I chose would not upload, so I contacted Kyle and the community to ask why?

I got a response from one member immediately telling me of another way to load a picture and I joked that “I shall have to do some ‘Photo-shopping’ first”, but what I meant is that I am not one of these people who need to present myself to the world.

I am about; what do I have to offer others?

My image is not the first thing that comes to mind as I am aware of people’s judgement of others because of their looks, skin colour, race, religion, etc.

These factors are the major causes of most disagreements around the world today and it is present in Wealthy Affiliates although I am sure Kyle and Carson would tell you otherwise, which to some extent I would agree because the focus here is business and money, so for that people overlook many things.

I like people to find me out as to whether I am genuine or not, just like I do with them.

I am sure many here will have their own views and they are all to be respected as I hope mine are.

That said; I shall leave you with a quote which I think is relevant and I hope no one takes offence at my views or this blog, especially the founders of Wealthy Affiliates; which I still think is one of the best online educational platforms.
