You have decided to become a celebrity. Reputation definitely pays off, and you will find there are many ways to become famous. One of the best ways is to develop your own talent.You can then market yourself and that talent to the world, build your foundation, and make yourself famous. Remember that it will take a lot of effort to own and maintain a reputation. Therefore, if you are not willing to sweat, this method is not for you. Furthermore, even with your best efforts, you may not be famous, because it takes luck.
Steps
Method 1 of 3: Find your way to success
Determine the popularity level you want. Fame has many levels. For example, you could be the celebrity at school or work. You can be famous at home or locally. In addition, you can strive to be a world famous star. Each level has its own advantages and disadvantages, so you need to decide how much popularity you want to be.
Find a unique solution to a problem. Think about the problems that exist in your life and around you. If you can come up with a unique solution or a unique invention, you can become famous for it.- For example, Marie Curie became a famous scientist and inventor thanks to X-rays.
- Think about problems in your life. Maybe you're always late, or you hate having to look for shoes all day. What solutions can you think of to help yourself and others solve those problems?
Become outstanding from others. Sometimes, you will be noticed as yourself if you have a unique way of doing things or an impressive worldview. The key here is to follow your own path and be honest with yourself. You should not change the way you work just because they are too unique or different.- Escape from the rut. If you love to skateboard, find your own unique tricks. Instead of dressing up as a skateboarder, create a unique look.
Try your hand at a reality show. Another way to become famous is by participating in reality shows. You don't have to have the talent to take part, although in some cases it does, such as singing competition programs. You can search the reality show websites to find out when and where to try.- In general, when in the qualifying round, you should show enthusiasm, especially for the program you are currently participating.
- Remember that on the reality shows you need to play in, the judges can be very tough or mean. However, you should not assume that it is you. It is part of these programs.
Be a generous person in his own way. Although it may sound strange, some people have become famous for helping others in a truly unusual way. It can be a huge donation, but you can also ask others to contribute in a different way.
- For example, a man named Si Burgher has very long, nearly 7.6cm eyebrows. When friends suggested that he let others shave his eyebrows to raise money, he agreed and became very famous in his hometown of Bloomfield, Indiana.
- For example, you could set a goal of baking and selling a million chocolate cakes to donate money to charity.
Strive for a world record. Another way you can become famous is by breaking a world record. Take a look at the current world records, and think if you can break any.
- Remember that your world record needs to be certified by the Guinness World Records Organization. Furthermore, to be truly popular this way, you'll have to pick a record that people care about.
Post a funny video. Social media is now a popular communication channel, you can gain a short-term reputation by posting a funny video that drives netizens crazy. It doesn't have to be something sublime, it just has to be entertaining. For example, maybe it's just about your cat acting funny.
- You can post a video where you are playing an instrument while singing a funny song, or doing something funny in public. Be creative and make sure you have fun too. If you like what you do, then the audience will like your video.
Method 2 of 3: Developing talent
Choose a talent. If you already have talent in a certain area, that's a good foundation for you. However, it should also be something you enjoy. You will have to spend a lot of time investing in your talent, so if you don't like it then you will suffer. Plus, people can recognize it when you show your talent with passion, and that makes it easier for you to become famous.
- Think of artistic jobs like music, acting, writing, or painting. However, you need to remember that you will have to market yourself and build a reputation in that area.
- We often associate popularity with jobs in the music or movie fields, however, any image known to the public can be called famous. Politicians, football coaches, small business owners and even meteorologists are well known to the public.
Learn from the best. No matter what talent you're planning to develop, you'll do better if you learn from the experience of others. That means maybe you will enroll in courses, find an instructor, watch online lectures or read books in the library. You can do all of the above. Let someone else help you.
Practice non-stop. While it is not certain that you can make yourself famous through practice, it will certainly make you better by practicing. The divine number that determines how much time you need to spend is 10 thousand hours. Although you do not have to sit down and align enough, the above numbers will help you visualize the amount of time it takes for talent to shine.
- For example, if you devote 5 hours a day, it would take you about 2 thousand weeks, or 38 years, to become a talent in your chosen field. On the other hand, if you can devote 40 hours per week, you can become an expert in about 5 years or less.
Remind yourself that talent is skill. If you believe that you only have talent, you won't be able to improve. Just having a little difficulty, you will think "I don't have enough talent". However, if you consider it a skill, your thoughts will say that progress is possible.
- When you think, "I'm not doing this very well", you should think differently: "I just need to work harder than learn this skill."
Method 3 of 3: Build a brand for yourself
Shape what you want the world to see. Personal branding depends on building certain images of you. It will depend on your inherent traits, but you don't necessarily need to show yourself to the rest of the world. Instead, you'll focus on the things that make your personal brand unique.
- Think of celebrities who have built an image you know. For example, Xuan Bac has built the image of an MC who likes to wear flowers since hosting the program Chasing the picture. Some other typical examples such as writer Trang Ha who is famous for her feminist image, or singer Taylor Swift is currently pursuing the image of a "queen".
Market yourself on social media. In the digital age, social media is the easiest way to make yourself stand out. You can post articles or videos, as well as blog or take pictures to build your personal brand. Your content must express itself and be useful to your audience in some way. You need to give them a reason to come back.
- For example, if you're trying to market your talent, upload videos so people can actually see it, like your voice.On the other hand, you can focus on tutorials to help people do the same things you do.
Build a foundation by encouraging people to follow you. It's fine to post content online, but it can be a work if you don't have followers. You can ask a friend to press the follow button and from there, they'll invite other people as well. You can also network by leaving comments, liking, and sharing other people's content.
- There is a difference between bugging others to exchange followers and encouraging others to follow. When you say "Follow me to get an ardent fan", it is annoying. However, the sentence "Please follow me to continue to receive interesting content" is not. Harassing others for more followers by following them is forbidden on most social networking sites.
Focus on your brand by being selective about social media posts. If you are already on social media, focusing on your branding may mean removing things that are not useful to the image you are building. On the other hand, think about the new things you post. Every post or image on it should help strengthen your branding.
Towards the basic media. If you've already built your own brand, find a way out. Contact local program producers, especially if you have something to promote, such as a book. Remember that many places will say no, so don't be afraid to try so many programs.
- It is best to start small and develop it gradually. Most national shows want you to have a local time slot before you can give it to you.
- Stay realistic about your goal and avoid "front bombing" in your marketing yourself. Hip-hop publications won't want to interview a country band, and you won't be invited to a wine festival again on self-brewed beer.
Don't be afraid to fail. Be confident that you and your brand deserve to be famous. You need the courage to step out in order to succeed. Take the risk of submitting your book to the publisher, or sign up for a performance at a big festival.
- However, you cannot just fail and try the same thing over and over again. You need to learn from your mistakes and become better. For example, if your book is rejected 20 times then you need to discard it and start over.
