Here is a quick resume of what likable people are usually revered for:
- They never blame
- They never try to control
- They are humble and don't try to impress or show off
- They are not clingy but rather independent
- Courteous and never interrupt
- They don't complain (well rarely, because we all complain, question is "How much?")
- Don't criticize and if they do it's constructive
- They don't preach, but rather show by example/actions
- They live in the present (not the past or future)
- They don't live in fear
Where do you fall? Are you a likable person - can you work on some of these points? Feel free to comment.
