Get anyone to like you - Instantly - Guaranteed If you want people to like you, make them feel good about themselves. This golden rule of friendship works every time - guaranteed! The principle is straightforward. If I meet you and make you feel good about yourself, you will like me and seek every opportunity to see me again to reconstitute the same good feeling you felt the first time we met. Unfortunately, this powerful technique is seldom used because we are continually focused on ourselves and not others. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/let-their-words-do-the-talking/201107/get-anyone-you-instantly-guaranteed-1 Get Anyone to Like You – Instantly – Guaranteed

8 Ways to be UBER Charismatic http://www.highexistence.com/8-ways-to-be-uber-charismatic/ What did JFK, Marilyn Monroe and Hitler all have in common? They were all renowned charismatics that lit up every room they entered. You’ve most likely met one of these kinds before. The guy/girl at the party. They possess some strange quality that causes them to be liked by everyone and constantly at the center of attention. Their eyes and the way they carry themselves convey power and magnetism and you can’t quite figure out why.
Maslow Self Actualization - unlearn. http://psikoloji.fisek.com.tr/maslow/self.htm "Self Actualization is the intrinsic growth of what is already in the organism, or more accurately, of what the organism is." Abraham Maslow Maslow studied healthy people, most psychologists study sick people. The characteristics listed here are the results of 20 years of study of people who had the "full use and exploitation of talents, capacities, potentialities, etc.." Self-actualization implies the attainment of the basic needs of physiological, safety/security, love/belongingness, and self-esteem.

Our body language exhibits far more information about how we feel than it is possible to articulate verbally. All of the physical gestures we make are subconsciously interpreted by others. This can work for or against us depending on the kind of body language we use. Some gestures project a very positive message , while others do nothing but set a negative tone. Most people are totally oblivious to their own body language , so the discipline of controlling these gestures can be quite challenging. Most of them are reflexive in nature, automatically matching up to what our minds are thinking at any given moment. 25 Acts of Body Language to Avoid http://www.dailycognition.com/index.php/2009/07/09/25-acts-of-body-language-to-avoid.html
In Defense of Sex http://thoughtcatalog.com/2011/in-defense-of-sex/ I lost my virginity to my high school sweetheart when I was seventeen. I can remember being very deer in headlights, on my back, saying, “I love you” over and over and over until he was inside. And when he came, I looked up at him in my vulnerable state and asked “Can I try on top now?” Because sex is fun. When I was little, I played doctor with any willing playmate. I started humping pillows until they gave me orgasms when I was something like twelve.
You hear it all the time: "He was such a NICE Guy, and she's such a Heartless Bitch for dumping him." I get letters from self-professed Nice Guys, complaining that women must WANT to be treated like shit, because THEY, the "Nice Guy" have failed repeatedly in relationships.

If you have one bad relationship after another, the only common denominator is YOU . http://www.heartless-bitches.com/rants/niceguys/niceguys.shtml Heartless Bitches International - Why "Nice Guys" are often such LOSERS

Why I Am a Male Feminist | The Root When I was a little boy, my mother and father used to argue a lot. Some mornings, I would wake up to the alarming sound of my parents arguing loudly. The disagreement would continue until my father would yell with finality, "That is it! I'm not talking about this anymore!" The dispute would end right there. My mother never got the last word.

In late-2008, I was lucky enough to discover a book called, The Introvert Advantage (How To Thrive in an Extrovert World), by Marti Laney, Psy.D. It felt like someone had written an encyclopedia entry on a rare race of people to which I belong. Not only had it explained many of my eccentricities, it helped me to redefine my entire life in a new and productive context. Sure, anyone who knows me would say, “Duh!
