How to be more likeable

Tip #1: You don’t always need to be around people. People will want to be with you when you are happy by yourself.

Sometimes we feel lonely and we think that we need to have a lot of friends or a partner to be happy. But the truth is, happiness comes from within. You need to learn how to enjoy your own company and do things that make you happy. When you are happy by yourself, you will attract people who are happy too. They will see your positive energy and want to be part of it.

Tip #2: People love boldness. You will be respected when you become a straight talker. Example: If you can’t provide a favor, say no instead of trying to please them.

One of the biggest mistakes we make is trying to please everyone and avoid conflict. We think that if we say yes to everything, people will like us more. But the opposite is true. When we say yes to things that we don’t want to do, we are disrespecting ourselves and our values. We are also sending a message that we are weak and insecure. People will take advantage of us and lose respect for us.

The solution is to be bold and honest. Say what you think and feel, even if it might upset someone. Of course, you need to be polite and respectful, but don’t be afraid to say no when you need to. People will appreciate your honesty and courage. They will respect you more and trust you more.

Tip #3: If you don’t like yourself, no one else will. You must change what you don’t like about yourself and accept what you can’t change.
