How to be a likeable person

In this article, i will share with you 4 advanced technics that can completely change your social life and make it easier for you to build connections with others because they simply like you and like to interact with you now.

For all the technics presented below, it’s important to not rush and try to apply everything like applying tutorial steps about how to draw. You need to be mentally and emotionally ready, because it’s not only about changing some little habits, it is about changing the whole way you see your interaction with others, it is actually a lifestyle change you are going to make. So take your time, take it easy and do it in your own way.

Open posture

Who can’t like someone who looks cool, relaxed and open? With an open posture, you will tell people indirectly that you are not a threat, that they are welcome to get in touch with you and that you are feeling comfortable in your skin and you are a confident person. Here is how you can adopt an open posture:

• Try to not cross your arms or legs, and to keep them relaxed.
• Avoid moving your arms or legs fast.
• Keep your hands open as much as possible.
• Keep your shoulders relaxed.
• Move your hands when you are talking (but not too much).
• Wear relaxed clothes.

Eye contact

Eyes are a great way to make people feel pleased when they are interacting with you. To achieve that you need to maintain more eye contact when you are talking or listening to others and to let your eyes express your emotions.

Involving your eyes when you are communicating with others will help you a lot in keeping them interested not only in what you are saying but in you as a person too and it will also show them that you are interested too. One thing to mention is that the way you make eye contact must be modified according to the context and the nature of the relation and distance between you and the other.

Gifting

In the previous article, I explained how being thankful is so important to make people like you. Gifting is a highly effective way to express that you are thankful for others’ help and support or just that you are grateful for them being part of your life or that you want them to keep being part of it.

We all love to feel recognized, it makes us feel that we are valuable and we can’t help but to like who gives us those wonderful and heart-warming feelings. A gift doesn’t need to be something expensive, just a cup of coffee or a bar of chocolate can be so effective.

Complimenting

Complimenting others is not only a kind act that can make them feel happy, it is a great demonstration of how humble and yet confident you are. Complimenting others make people feel that you are not a selfish person and that you have no problem with taking the focus off of you and spotting the light on others. But you need to avoid giving fake compliments even if you have good intentions because it will make people suspicious about you or even make you look dishonest.
