It's simple to get sucked into the numbers game in the digital society we live in. We frequently use our social media following as a gauge of our success. However, I would like to know how many people truly remember you, forget about how many people follow you?

The fact is that there is far more value in being remembered than in simply following. Although followers may come and go, those who remember us do so because of the positive influence we have had on their life.

Creating a Presence vs. Creating an Impact

Although it's transient, having thousands of followers may make you feel accomplished. It is comparable to a star that briefly sparkles before fading into darkness. However, being recalled is like to becoming a part of someone else's narrative. It indicates that you have left a lasting impression if they continue to resurface in your thoughts.

Superior Quality Compared to Quantity

It can be more fulfilling to cultivate deep connections with a small number of people than to amass a vast following of nameless followers. Quality is more important than quantity. Which would you rather, in the end—a small number of profound, meaningful interactions or a hundred shallow ones?

How to Stay In Memories

So how can you make sure that people remember you? Authenticity is the first step. Stay loyal to your principles and yourself. Sincerity is valued by others, and people are more inclined to recall someone who is genuine and personable.

Go on to add value after that. Give up your wisdom, skills, and insights. Don't expect anything in return; instead, help others. You will be more memorable to people if you bring greater worth into their lives.

Lastly, interact with your audience. Connections are cultivated through interaction. Answer inquiries, react to remarks, and demonstrate an interest in the opinions of others. By doing this, you create a sense of community and become remembered.
