We are always trying to attract other people's attention in our daily lives, whether we do it purposely or naturally. We, humans like to be attractive. So, what is the purpose for all these? There are a few reasons that i can think of.
First, to attract the opposite sex. Humans, just like animals and plants, trying to present the best appearance to others, so they can keep their "target's" eye focusing on themselves. Besides, some people aim to attract their parents' attention, because they need love, care. On the other hand, others will do some silly things to attract others in order to be famous. All those are done purposely. But there is someone who attracts others naturally. He/She will seem like a star, shining brightly and others couldn't even get their eyes out of him/her.
Of course, there are many ways to attract people. One of the most common one is to dress up like a prince or princess, or like a beggar. Animals do so too, by "showing off" their colourful feathers, wings, or bravery which is shown in a battle to fight for sex partners. You can attract others as long as you are above or below the normal level. For example, we all usually clad in simple T-shirts and trousers or shorts to tuition. That is considered normal for one's wearing. Wearing clothes above the normal level can be considered wearing something special, valuable things like wearing a cap, a jacket or a diamond necklace to tuition centre. While below the normal level is like wearing something that is not suitable in certain areas like wearing pyjamas, singlets to attend classes. Both types run the same function, that is to ATTRACT others (maybe purposely or not). Somebody else may even try to attract others through action. They may speak loudly or purposely do some silly stuff. Some people with expensive gadgets like cell phone, MP3 etc will attract others too. And, I'm not discriminating anyone as sometimes they really caught my attention which means that the way really works (Haha). It is not everyone's fault to attempt to attract others, but picking the correct method will be crucial. Those talented or skillful persons will captivate others naturally.
Anyway, different ways surely will have different effects, either giving others a good or bad impression about yourself. Let me give another fact, like some students who like to act cool, act bossy, act smart, act cute..... They will give people different impressions. "Acting cute, what a lousy idea!" or "How cute, how i wish to have her as my girlfriend" are such a contrast of thought about those girls who like to pretend like that.
Therefore, if you are someone who cares what others think of you, PLEASE think thoroughly before you do anything, speak anything or watch anything because your every move, every words, every act may attract others. Anyway, even you have the ability to attract others, it does not mean that you are attractive, you may seem annoying for some other people, who maybe really don't like your ways of attracting, or maybe envy you to have that ability.
It's just something I wanna talk about. I have no means of offencing or hurting anyone. So, those who find this post to be ......... , you can leave your comment.

I find this post totally......OMG! totally impressive!
But there are some issues which I hope would get your attention :
(Please pardon me for blogging on your blog.....so rude....)
1. You try to differentiate attracting people with intent from what you consider attracting people "naturally". I interpret "naturally" as not conciously attempting to get people's attention.
It appears that you consider "purposely" and "naturally" to be mutually exclusive. However, if 'naturally' means 'in a way that happens in nature', then attracting people's attention purposely is essentially natural, because that is what happens in "nature".
To be more argumentative, if "naturally" means "subconsciously" or without intent, and "trying" is always done consciously, then the act of "trying to attract other people's attention" can never be natural.
----------------------------
The point being made here is that:
Things which exist are automatically natural.
I know it's a DAMN long comment, but I assure you that I'm not trying to steal your readers.
