Avoid This Character Flaw If You Want People To Like You
Ever wonder why some people act like they don’t want to be around you?
You know the type. You try to start a conversation, and they’re polite but short. You walk into a room, and they walk out.
It’s fine to chalk this up to their problem. After all, if people don’t want to be around your awesomeness, it’s their loss, right?
That’s a fine mentality until it’s your boss, a potential employer, a significant other, or someone you need to like you.
Before answering, think of some reasons why you don’t like being around some people.
Maybe they’re always late.
Maybe they’re not very resourceful as a coworker or friend and always take advantage of your time and money.
Maybe they’re uninteresting, and you just don’t share many common interests with them.
If someone with those flaws cheers you up when you’re around them, you won’t purposely avoid them. However, if someone is always on time, smart, and outgoing but has a rotten attitude all the time they’re going to be a drag to be around.
Here’s why it’s important to bring positivity to other people: People associate positivity with the norm. They associate negativity with malfunction.
