How do I make people like me?
As an introvert that had to develop social skills in order to maintain my business, I feel fairly qualified to answer this. I’ve also learned many hard lessons in my 52 years of making odd social mistakes.My 5 strategies are listed in order of importance (my opinion only):“People won’t remember what you said or done, but will remember how you made them feel”. I first heard this quote when I was about 32. As it rang so true in my ears, It changed my life. It made me get out of my own head when socializing and truly pay attention to the person in front of me. Everything that comes after this are truly just bullet points to this one point.LISTEN. Whether you are with a friend, family member, new acquaintance or being interviewed for a job, listen to what is being said to you, then ask pertinent questions that prove you are engaged. Then, LISTEN some more. Conversely, it makes for a very uneasy conversation when one person in a conversation clearly only wants to talk (they constantly look like they’re going to sneeze in your face as they’re trying to take over the conversation).Smile. Nothing is more contagious than a genuine smile. And nothing is more off-putting than people that don’t.Offer a positive perspective. People love negativity. It’s very seductive - which is why every news broadcast begins with the most negative news available. But, note that they try to leave you on a positive high note. So, whether someone is confiding in you their life’s woes, or simply gossiping about the person across the room, gently guide the conversation back to hopeful outcomes.Try to give more than you receive. In networking circles I know that people are coming there looking for leads. So am I. I’ve found that if I SMILE (3) while I LISTEN (2) about their products or services, then ask more in depth questions about their business, I win over a degree of appreciation. I’m always aware to OFFER A POSITIVE PERSPECTIVE (4) on anything that may be a downer. Then I like to offer up some marketing tips without expecting anything in return (5). They will remember you fondly when you part ways (1). Follow up with them.I’ll throw in a bonus: the importance of remembering names and faces - THAT really makes people feel important! I certainly haven’t mastered that one yet, but always working on it.
Why do people love to see you down?
it seems like whenever i'm happy and enjoying life, there's always someone acting mean or trying to bring me down, but if i'm down and hating life and depressed and miserable, then that's when people are the nicest and seem to talk less about me negatively. why is this?
What makes people like other people?
It's often the little things that make a person likeable and dear to us.Incident 1:After my evening coding class, I was once waiting outside for an ola. It was the first class. Therefore I knew nobody. I had never travelled alone at night. Hence I was a bit scared waiting alone. But I was confident on the outside. A classmate whom I hardly knew came up to me and offered to wait until the cab arrived. I didn't want him to bother. Also, I don't like being dependent. But he introduced himself and started talking about his interest in coding and college life. It felt better to have a companion during the waiting period. The cab driver came not before 20 minutes and this guy even talked to him, explaining the location. I feel really very thankful to him for this gesture.Such people prove that human goodness can never go out of style.Incident 2:Me: Yaar, I have swollen gums. Can't even eat properly.Friend 1: Ohh. Tc. Ttyl.Friend 2: What happened yaar? Just go to the dentist and take the medicines on time. I hope you recover speedily.Follow up: Are you better now?Such friends restore my faith in something called human concern.Incident 3:Day 1:Me: Hi. What's up?Friend: Just some work. Btw had dinner?Me: Not yet.Friend: Yaar do eat before sleeping.Me: Yes.Day 2:Me: Talking, Talking etc..Friend: Yaar please eat dinner first. We can continue talking later too.Such people who bother to ask if I had food despite this not affecting them are dear to me.
Why do all people like power?
Power can be defined as the ability to get something done quickly and efficiently. This would be an unaberrated definition, one without compulsions added. Examples could be being capable to answer questions here on Quora relatively fast, coherently, and with good understanding of the audience's interests.An aberrated definition of power could be the capacity to force others to do what you say. Examples could be those who work in the government, who do their work under the consideration that others need to be told what to do, how to do it, and the different ways available to make others do it.So, why do all people like power? Its use gets things done. It creates a large effect in comparison to doing things the hard way. It can provoke others to show admiration for the power implementer (everyone likes being admired).There's absolutely nothing wrong with liking power. However, the motives for gathering power are the ones to be suspect I was going to say that forcing others to do something against their will was a wrong use of power, but parents always end up having to get their child to do something pro-survival in spite of their wishes.Important: power does not corrupt. Power attracts the corruptible, for they apparently get something for very little. Know what's worse than a corrupt person with power? An honest person with power and the desire to be a world improver. The corrupt will make a mistake somewhere and fall on their face. The honest will do anything "for the country, for the land, for the sea turtles", will call it good, and will sleep the sleep of the just.
Why do some people like to sleep all the time?
There are many reasons why people "like" to sleep all the time. The reason I added quotations is that many people sleep a lot despite that they want to. It's usually a natural response for the body to tell you to sleep at certain times or whenever (e.g on an airplane). Although sleep is good, it can be also bad but not detrimental. There are many conditions revolving excessive amount of sleep such as depression, although that doesn't mean the person has depression. Excessive sleep can also to different behavioral changes such as a difference in habits and becoming more lazy. Sleep is also a way to 'escape' from your stress or other ideas in your mind as the person drifts off to different ideas in their dreams. As for naps, there are research regarding the benefits and malicious causes from napping. If the person is concerned about lack/excessive amount of sleep then check up with the local doctor.Benefits of napping (+)Power naps provides more energy and staminaAlleviates stressAdjust time change or sleep scheduleAdjust behaviorsRelieve from minor pain such as headaches or stomach achesMalicious effects of napping (-)Higher risk of heart diseasesHigher risk of other diseasesRuins sleep scheduleOverworks the brainTendency of laziness
How can some people not like music at all?
I suppose I'm among the people you described. I honestly don't get the big fuss people make about music. I'm not implying that I think it's weird if music is a major part of your life. I like reading. But I understand that other people might not enjoy it. Everyone has their own thing. Reading isn't theirs. Music isn't mine. But how could I possibly be a human and not enjoy music? Well, I do listen to a few songs. And I mean few. I listened to most of them for the first time three or four years back. I listen to music probably once in a month or two. And even when I do, it's the same old stuff. It's out of boredom. If I could do anything else, I probably wouldn't listen to them either.Listening to new music feels like a chore to me. Whenever someone recommends a new song, all it seems to me is like a task on my to-do-list and all I want to do is keep putting it off. Even if I do start playing the song, I don't get into it. I keep checking the time and waiting for it to get over.As Jonathan Stahl puts it, I simply just don't care. I don't hate music, but I don't particularly like it either. It's not like I can't stand it. I would be okay listening to it during social gatherings or performances by friends/school mates. But would I want to listen to in my free time? No.
Why don't people like know-it-alls?
People get tired of being "one down" from another person. Even when you really, truly know more, people feel frustrated when they know less, especially when it happens over and over again.If it happens only once in a while, they might appreciate the information offered. But if it happens regularly, they feel like the know-it-all doesn't respect them.Also, most people think they are right more often than they are, and they do not like being told they are not (even if that isn't how it is said).I had to learn in grad school to work out a signal with my professors. I knew the right answer much too often. So I would raise just one finger, with my hand on the desk. This way, the other students got a chance to answer the questions from the instructor. If I answered every time I knew the answer, as fast as the answer came to me, no one else would get a chance.So, my signal allowed me to feel like I had let the teacher know I had the answer, but also, let the teacher know I was holding back and giving the other students the opportunity to engage.No one, not the teacher, not the other students, likes a student who always says the answer too fast--most people want to participate also, but they aren't as fast. That isn't their fault, it just is what it is. So if someone knows all the answers, they can show that on the test, but in class, it is best if they hold back to be fair to other students.
Why do people like Naruto so much?
It's a bit overrated in my opinion. I never liked at all and always run into Naruto fangirls everywhere I go. Why on earth do people like this anime so much? Am I the only one who doesn't like it?
Why do people like to watch the Oscars?
