Show I 1 TO BE LIKED YOU MUST LIKE OTHERS I 1 am interested in robert quillens view that almost anybody of ordinary intelligence can be popular all you have to do he explains is to like people did you ever see a charming person with cold and unfriendly eye he inquires 1 I am sure you those who seem charming are the ones who seem to like you As a general rule you will find people willing to meet you half way and treat you as well as you treat them they are willing to like you if you give no offense and thus you begin with the seed of popularity already planted all you need do is encourage it a little bit and let it develop by natural processes most people spoil things by talking too much in thoughtless 1 conversation with one friend they make rather catty remarks about another and the person talked about eventually hears what was said and feels hurt it may not make an enemy of him but he never again will like you that ends your popularity so far as he is concerned everybody wishes to be liked i and most people will repay you generously if you like them and prove it by not making nasty cracks about them |
