Six Ways to Make People Like you. If you want people to like you....
Rule #1:Become genuinely interested in other people.
"Do this and you will be welcome anywhere."
"You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."
"Ask questions to other people, questions that they would enjoy answering."
                               “The only good teachers for you are those friends who love you, who think you are interesting, or very important, or wonderfully funny; whose attitude is:
"Tell me more. Tell me all you can. I want to understand more about everything you feel and know and all the changes inside and out of you. Let more come out."

And if you have no such friend,--and you want to write,--well, then you must imagine one. ” 
― Brenda Ueland

Reflection: Continue asking and asking, don't get too tired to quickly. If you really want to get to know someone, ask them things. Let them know you are interested in what they have to say, in how their days been, why you are the way you are, etc. Just continue asking, people dig people that actually listen to them and wonder things about them.
 Rule #2:Smile
"Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, "I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you."
"You don't feel like smiling? Then force yourself to smile."
"It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign (witness or indication) of friends."
It's always good to smile, it picks up the mood and just makes you look physically better. No matter what it is that you are going through just make sure to smile. It also makes you seem friendly and people are able to approach you without feeling much weird about it.
                                                     

Rule #3: Remember Names

1) "A man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language."

2) "If you don't remember names, you are headed for trouble."

I always have trouble remembering three things:faces, names, and I can't remember what the third thing is.  -Fred

It's always important to remember people's names, although I tend to forget people's names. I have a bad memory and from time to time does make me forget people's names. It isn't a good thing to do so because then people believe that they weren't as important to you for you to at least be able to remember their name. When people talk to me and don't know my name it, I don't necessarily care but other people feel wack that you don't know it. You might simply not care because you don't think meeting that person will matter in the long run but you never know. 

Remembering people's names needs a slightly different approach from all the others explained so far in this section. one must remember to have chosen the right hearing technique. Be committed to know a persons name.

Rule #4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves

"If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener."

"Remember that the man you are talking to is a hundred times more interested in himself and his wants and his problems than he is in you and your problems. 

"Listening is an art that requires attention over talent, spirit over ego, others over self."

when talking to another person its always important to listen to what they are saying. They're are speaking whats on their mind hoping that you are listening rather than just standing there waiting to reply to what they said. for example, I can be standing there while a person is talking and not hear anything they said. I could have chosen to ignore them without them noticing until the very end. If the person is telling you a certain thing it's because they want to let you know whats going on their mind. It's disrespectful if you don't listen.  

5 tips for active listening:

1) Stay focused, keep touch, and maintain eye contact2) really listen, don't think about your experience or what you have to say next3) allow for periods of silence, wait till the other person speaks again4) repeat the other persons words or paraphrase it back to them 5) understand the emotions behind the words 

Rule #5: Talk in terms of the other man's interest.

"The royal road to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most."

Have an interesting conversation. don't just tend to be very boring. If you make the conversation interesting the person would want to remain talking to you rather than stop talking to you or simply ignoring you. If you begin the conversation about things that he treasures, they would just want to continue talking to you because you seem interested in them. you are giving them the attention they seek although they may not admit it. 

Rule #6: Make the other person feel important-- and do it sincerely.

"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature." (John Dewey)" Helping people feel important and appreciated works magic."

When talking to somebody its nice to make them feel important. The person you are talking to knows that you are giving them the attention they desire on a daily basis without really noticing. They enjoy the fact that somebody is actually giving them attention, that somebody actually wants to listen to what they are saying. 

 "Pretend that every single person you meet has a sign around his or her neck that says. 'Make me feel important.' Not only will you succeed in sales, you will succeed in life."

-Mary Kay Ash

Show that you have interest in a person even when you don't. It will always have positive results benefiting you most of the time.

                                                           Cunningham
Summary:
 Cunningham as a child lit up a stove without knowing there was coal in it from the previous night. he was sitting near it when it began to explode reaching his legs. he was then told by the doctors that he wouldn't be able to walk anymore. But he was determined to fulfill his dreams of becoming an Olympic runner and becoming a doctor. with the help of the massages his mom would give him he was able to walk again. He then joined the school football team and succeeded in high school. he was able to obtain a scholarship but rejected it because he wanted to succeed on his own. He ran track and got his coach's attention. he was able to run a mile in 4:04 close to beating the 4 minute mile. He won a silver medal in the Olympics. He then retired from running and became a doctor. He got married and had 10 kids.
Reflection:
 In my perspective Cunningham is a great example of somebody who doesn't give up and keeps going. He was supposed to not walk anymore according to the doctors yet instead he was able to walk again and became famous for the use of his legs. He was able to participate in the Olympics and become a doctor just like he dreamed. He could've gave up but instead was determined to keep going. This encourages me to keep going. No matter what obstacles life gives me, I know I should keep going until I succeed.

                                                   "The Six Attitudes of High Achievers"
                                                                   High Achievers
1)Make no small plans
High Achievers- These are the people who excel in terms of skills and responsibilities. Results-driven and motivated, they work to a high standard, with little need for supervision or hand-holding.
If a high achiever is going to do something, they're going to do something that requires big plans. Going towards the top is never easy, therefore they have a well evaluated detailed plan on what they are planning to do and how. They go step by step in order to not mess up and have to start all over.
                                                   

"A Dream without a plan is just a wish"

You can't just say you want something and expect for it to occur on its own. You have to work up to it until you succeed this goal. But you can't go towards your goal without having a plan in your mind. Or else things can go ways you didn't expect. High Achievers will reach their goal with little to no help on their own to be able to say they did it. 

2)Do what they fear

If someone tells you not to do something because they're scared you might succeed, do it. Most of the time people don't wish good upon others although they say they do. People are very envious although they may hide it. If they see you doing good, they'll most likely try to do bad to you on the lowkey. 

                                                        

"People fear what they don't understand and hate what they can't conquer"

A friend can be a two face and wish bad upon you while pretending to wish the better. They can say they want to see you succeed but can be hoping you don't. 

3)Are willing to prepare

do what it takes for your benefit. if you have to prepare then do so as long as its for your best. 

4) Are willing to risk failure

just do it. i can't promise you that you'll always get what you want but just go for it. you won't always succeed and indeed fail but get up and try again. 

5) Are teachable

teachable- to learn what one is being taught

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. 

it's a teachers job to teach kids what they have to be taught. but it's also their job to make them become interested. Fill them up with knowledge of various things making them want to learn more and more. they get paid to awaken us and get us to feel that feeling of joy from the knowledge they are passing on to us. 

6) Have heart

People have to realize that some situations happen without being anyone's fault. It just happens whether we wanted it to happen or not. People have to have a heart and not go around breaking others either. They must have a heart and have sympathy for them, unless there's no other way then okay. 

The hear tis made for multiple purposes although its main purpose is to pump blood and keep us alive. It's better to have a heart without words than have words instead of a heart. Words are just chosen letters from the alphabet put together to create a word, it has not much meaning compared to the heart. It's like mind over the heart. The mind would go for things that they believe are better rather than what the heart really wants. 

REFLECTION

The Six Attitudes of High Achievers are very important. I somewhat agree to making small plans because sometimes small plans can unexpectedly result into huge deals impacting our lives in a positive way. I like to challenge people and do what they fear. It makes things more interesting and more fun. I'm willing to prepare if I really have too. If not there's a big chance I'll just wing it. I'm willing to risk failure if that's whats bound to happen. If I fail oh well, I can get back up and try again. Many things are teachable, there's just a limit. I have heart, I consider it at times but sometimes you just have to be cold-hearted. I won't commit to it, they'll just happen. 

                9 Ways

Be Grateful

She was grateful enough to get a career in doing what she actually loves. Not many people have that opportunity and are forced to work in something else even if it’s not exactly what they love. This job will benefit her for many years and causes her to have a very bright future. For example, soccer players. Many people love playing soccer and wish to play professional soccer. But sometimes no matter how good you are it isn’t enough so you have to start thinking of other opportunities. Manchester was grateful to have the chance to advance in what she loves.

Be Smart

  It is better to be smart rather than to be young and beautiful. It may seem untrue to many who prefer the opposite but a smart mind beats all. It’s better to have smarts than to be dumb. One would get manipulated into many things if they weren’t smart enough to tap it out.

    

Time goes by in a blink of an eye. We experience so much as each day advances most of the time in the difficult moments. After so many years of going through so much you get used to it. Your experience from a certain thing that occurred makes you smarter since you know what to expect or have felt that way before. Experience makes one smarter. 

Be involved in good works.

Make sure to do things that benefit not only you but your community. It’s always great to have a helpful person around. An example, helping pick up trash. Although it may not seem like a lot you are helping your environment, plants, animals, people, etc.

Be Clean

Is anyone perfect? Is it okay if you judge someone because of something they did, if you aren’t such person to judge.  For example. A person who goes to church every Sunday and a person who rarely goes. Just because you go to church every Sunday, doesn’t mean you’re a great person who doesn’t sin. And just because you don’t go to church doesn’t mean you live a reckless life not caring. Stop being hypocrites and stop judging people because you aren’t any better.
Be True
I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.
Frederick Douglass
its always better to not lie to ourselves or others and always live by the truth. why bother sugarcoating the truth, if in the end its just going to be bs and then reality will hit you hard as hell in the face. start off knowing the truth and although it may be hard, it'll be better in the future. its also good to be true to others because it avoids causing so many problems. why lie to a person if a lie always leads to another and so forth. next thing you know, you'll be lying all the time without you being conscious about it. when you get caught up in the lie, then what? will you lie again or take the blame for all the lies you began in the first place.

Be Positive

Be Positive
You always have to remain positive. Its the only way we can keep going. No matter how rough things get or how bad things seem you just have to keep going. For example when I'm running, I get really tired and stop to walk. But as I think about it, if I continue walking I won't reach my goal in time so I have to keep going. If I stop my consequences would be another mile or so. In this picture Marlon was giving up in finding Nemo but Dory kept encouraging him to keep on going. Dory suffers from a sickness that makes him forget things easily, he doesn't know whether they're going to find Nemo or not and most of the time he doesn't even know what's going on; but he insists to just keep swimming. It's a great example to encourage everyone that no matter at what point they are in, to just keep swimming.

Be Humble

We all were born the same way and we are all leaving this hell hole the same way. No matter what you did in life, no matter how important you were, no matter how rich you were, we're all leaving the same way. No ones going to care how big your house was or how recent your car is, it's going to be gone either way. The rich are an example of having to stay humble. All their luxuries make them feel superior and believe that they have everything but who cares. Our grave is still going to be the same size and we're all leaving either buried and getting eaten by worms or getting burned. Always remember where you came from/ where you started. Stay humble and succeed, don't forget about your family and priorities while attempting to impress the people you don't like with the things you don't want.

Reflection:

                Everyone says things every day, they can say they’ll do something without much matter but at times, they have to stay committed. When one gets into a relationship they are committed to stick to that one person. For example, a married couple. They got together in the beginning because they had strong feelings for each other and kept that feeling alive throughout the time that they were together. Because they were confident of what they felt although at times they had a few struggles here and there they were committed to stay together and relive that feeling they had for each other when they had barely gotten together. You could’ve told a girl,” I love you,” just to get in her pants at that moment but if there really is that connection they stay loyal to each other, committed to one another.
