10 Ways to make people like you

With a little bit of work, it is possible that you can create such a magnetic personality; that you will attract everybody towards you.

All you have to do to acheive this is stay commited and be open to bring changes in your life.

Steps to make people like you and make you a human magnet:

Step 1: Eye Contact & Smile

This is the first and one of the most important steps: Make direct eye-contact and try to smile whenever you meet anybody.

Step 2: Solid Handshake

If there is a handshake involved make a firm sturdy handshake. Also remember when you shake the other persons hand make the space between your thumb and index finger touch that same space of the other person to create good hand posture.

Step 3: Attentiveness

Look alert and pay attention to the person you are interacting with.

Step 4: Positivity and Happiness

Genuinely become a happy person and once again smile a lot. Also when I say smile I don’t mean a huge goofy smile or a sly grin. I mean a subtle but good smile that makes you look both happy and friendly. Remember, just you being a cheerful person will attract already a lot of people towards you.

Step 5: Open Posture

Keep an open posture, to make the other person feel comfortable and relaxed. Crossing your arms or hunching are big no, no’s.

Step 6 : Control your Words

When you talk try to keep a 70% to 30% ratio in the other persons favour. Meaning you only talk 30% of the conversation. People are interested in themselves and when they talk to you about themselves and feel that you actually were interested, they automatically like you.

Note: This doesn’t mean that you let the other person control the conversation. Keep control of the conversation by asking questions and responding when needed.

Step 7: Use Body Language

When the other person talks, nod and use body language to communicate that you agree and understand.

Step 8: Voice

Keep a pleasant tone to your voice and try to talk a little bit slower than the other person this creates a contrast in your speech, which is very effective in making people like you.

Step 9: Concentrate

Be genuinely interested in the other person, and for those few minutes make them the only attention in your life.

Step 10: Be Yourself and Have Fun

Be yourself, and have fun. Interacting with other people can be fun. If you enjoy the conversation, the other person will pick up on it very fast and will like you that much faster.

* By the way these steps on "how to make people like you" don't have particular order, put them all together in your unique way to create the ultimate effect.

Hints and Tips:

• Look clean and dress accordingly, you wouldn’t attract a high class business man wearing dirty clothes and vice versa
• Never swear or use foul words
• Never put somebody down in your conversations
• Don’t pretend to be somebody who you aren’t, after a while your veil will fall and that person might not be interested in what your not

Good Luck in making people like you!
