And even if you haven’t, this article just draws some inspiration that show. Also, I think being charismatic is about being a better you and bringing out more of yourself with less self-censoring. Find your own variation by exploring yourself. 1. Yes, this sounds really obvious. Charismatic people often seem to smile a whole lot.

6 Harsh Truths That Will Make You a Better Person
#3. You Hate Yourself Because You Don't Do Anything Getty "So, what, you're saying that I should pick up a book on how to get girls?" Only if step one in the book is "Start making yourself into the type of person girls want to be around." Getty"Come ooooon. Because that's the step that gets skipped -- it's always "How can I get a job?" "But why can't I find someone who just likes me for me?" Here's another video (NSFW): Everyone who watched that video instantly became a little happier, although not all for the same reasons. "But I'm not good at anything!"

Take the Positivity Challenge!
“We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.”- Anais Nin I think that one of the most effective ways to improve your life is simply to think in a more positive way. This is of course nothing new and not that simple. If it was, well, then at least most of us would already be doing it. So, why aren’t we more positive? I can think of a few reasonable reasons. We think it is like it is – It´s easy to confuse what has happened to you, the story of your life, with now and the future.

Lack of energy – Changing the many negative and neutral thoughts in our day to day life to positive ones can take quite a bit of energy. Too reactive and mindful of what others may think – You may think, if I change and become more positive, what will other people say? Not knowing how the world (most of the time) works can discourage you.
Prioritize with The Pareto Principle
This is part 3 in the series How to double your productivity. Here´s a thing I wish they taught us in school. Or maybe they did and I wasn´t listening. In 1906 the Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto observed that 80% of the income in Italy was received by 20% of the people. This was later developed into the Pareto Principle (also known as the 80-20 rule and the law of the vital few) by quality management guru Jospeh M. In many cases and for many phenomena 20% of the causes accounts for 80% of the consequences. This means that 80% of the causes only accounts for 20% of the consequences. So, focus your time and energy on those important 20% of tasks and activities that will give you 80% of the results. Identifying those 20% is often not that hard. Today, for me, such a thing is to study for tests in school next week. I´ve also used the principle in another way in school. Before you do something, ask yourself: does this belong to the 20% group? How to double your productivity:
