everyone likes to talk to then sit back relax and continue watching because I'm
about to show you how and if you're new here consider subscribing since I'll be

now we all have that one person in our lives which is simply wonderful to be
around they're full of charisma and jokes and great advice but what really
stands out are all the qualities that makes them easy to be around here's some
of the qualities you can implement today to become a more likable person
number one is very important and it is to truly listen when someone is talking to you
people with high social skill make it a habit of actively listening when someone
else is talking that means looking the person in the eyes when they speak but
not too much so you don't come across as creepy
these likeable people are interested and concerned about others they don't talk
about themselves constantly what they do instead is asking others how they are
and actively listening and caring about their answers it makes others feel
connected and good about themselves number two is try to stay as positive as
possible so let me put it this way do you like to be around people that are
constantly complaining about everything and it's obviously never themselves
that's anything wrong with well it's okay to vent occasionally it's much
easier to be around people who keep complaining to a minimum and people who
are positive usually thinks of solutions rather than problems while keeping a
positive attitude may be easier said than done it's for sure way more
likeable number three take a genuine interest in others do you know what
people enjoy talking about the most exactly themselves it's so important to
actually show interest and what your friends and family have to say because
people love talking about themselves and their interests so instead of focusing
on sharing your interest and point of view all the time try ask about people's
interests more and listen actively what they have to say
I promise you it will be greatly received
I just want to say you are awesome and you're capable of doing more than you
think and on that note number four is about giving compliments while you don't
want to praise people with meaningless compliments all the time a well-timed
compliment is always nice to hear because we live in a world where people
want validation more than anything we see this a lot on social media and we
just want to know that we are basically good people so keep in mind that giving
genuine recognition from time to time as a powerful way to be more likeable last
but not least is number five which is having empathy with others empathy is an
important social skill that is a power of getting along with others what you
want to do here is to try focus on connecting with others feelings and try
to understand why they are feeling a certain way you can do this through
sensitive and validating words and if you feel like you can relate to the
person you can use examples of your own experience if you do this correctly
anyone will pick up how you care about people's feelings and opinions and as a
result they want to be around you more so let's do a quick recap it's extremely
important to start actively listening to the person you are having a conversation
with keep complaining to a minimum and try keep a positive attitude because you
will be way more likeable to be around people love talking about themselves and
their interest so remember to ask more questions and listen instead of talking
about yourself all the time everyone likes to get compliments but a
well-timed compliment is way better receives than if you just throw
compliments around all the time lastly have empathy for others try understand
why a person is feeling a certain way and through sensitive and validating
words you come across as a caring and empathetic person alright guys that's it
