"You can make more friends in two months by becomng 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."

• Reflection: This new rule is saying that you should become interested in what other people enjoy doing and what they like instead of trying to get them to like what you like. For example, if you want someone to be your friend, you should ask them what they like to do and try to become interested in the same topic. This way you guys have something in common and you guys will become friends that way.

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."

• Quote: No siren did ever so charm the ear of the listener as the listening ear has charmed the soul of the siren. - Henry Taylor
• Reflection: This rule is stating that you can make people like you because you are listening to what they have to say which means you are showing interest in them. ON the other hand, if you only talk about yourself and don't let them speak they will think you're selfish.

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."
Reflection: If when talking to another person the only way a conversation will be interesting between the two will be when you talk about something the other person loves. It will automatically be boring if the other person hears you blabber about things that they don't like. If you don't know nothing on that subject, spend the day or night researching what it is so you can have an insight on the things that interests them. Starting a conversation about their interests will bring up enthusiasm in the conversation.
 Rule 6: Make the other person feel important- and do it sincerely.
"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature."
"Helping people feel important and appreciated works magic."

• Quote:  Whenever you go out-of-doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do; and then, without veering off direction, you will move straight to the goal. Keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding away, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire.

Overall Reflection: These six ways will make people like you because they will like that you are interested in them and that you talk about what interests them. Also because you will always smile at them and because you actually listen to what they say.
