15 Simple Ways to Be a Better People's Person

15 Simple Ways to Be a Better People's Person

"We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us

by what we have already done!"

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 


We all want to learn how to become a better people's person. It has been

proven over and over again that all things being equal people will do

business and deal with people they like. All things not being equal, they

still will. 


So the saying, "When you smile the whole world smiles with you" is very

true. You "get" the reaction you "give." As humans, we often mirror the

reaction we get. 


So what assets do we need to possess to make positive

things happen in our work and home life:


1. Personality - nothing will attract people to you better than a charismatic

personality. A great personality is the cure-all when it comes to dealing

with people. In terms of qualities, leaders look for people that have a

better attitude, are better liked, and have a more positive effect on the people around them. 


2. The Art of Influence - Influence is a powerful skill/talent. It is also

particularly important for anybody who wants to be more effective with

people. Your ability to alter the thoughts, moods, and emotions of other

people indicates how much of a people person you are. An article in the

Harvard Business Journal reported a study in Social Neuroscience that found

that the follower dynamic is not a case of two or more independent brains

reacting to each other but rather their minds, in a sense, fused into one system. 


3. What happens when you walk into a room? When you say good morning do

people respond in a genuine enthusiastic way? Their response has much to do

with the influence you have on them. Influence not only gives you the

ability to alter moods, but it gives you the capability to create them. In

order to be effective with people, you must help them think the way you

think and feel the way you feel. Become the kind of person people will

listen to and have the kind of attitude people want to emulate.


4. Find your strong positive characteristics and amplify them i.e. if you are

funny, thoughtful, selfless, insightful, and interesting.


5. Making someone laugh is great but the truth is you don't have to make them

laugh in order to be an effective people person, but you do have to make

them smile! You also need to know how to take a joke! Being an easygoing

person who can make others smile is a priceless people skill that can make a

world of difference in your daily relationships. Create topics where there

are opportunities to have fun.


6. Make others feel important. The people who are truly confident at

socialising has learned that taking your eyes off yourself is the best way

to get a positive reaction out of people.


7. Be willing to help. Look for ways to help others every day.


8. Be interested in their interests - learn more about the person you are

talking to - important in sales. Make others feel important by asking

questions that show you care. Be thoughtful with your responses when being

asked a question it tells a lot about you. Be interesting and interested. 


9. Be a great listener - avoid interrupting and ensure you are concentrating

on what the other person is saying. Resist the temptation to rehearse in

your head your response. You will miss something important that could alter everything!


10. Drop the useless details - no one cares! It is exhausting to listen to

someone who has to tell you every minute detail in a story - just get to the

point! Being a straight shooter is good but always remain a level of

respect. Look to be short on talk and long on delivery!


11. Keep yourself out of the conversation not everything is about you. Share

what's important but timing is everything. Ensure the conversation flows two ways. 


12. Leave them feeling better than when you found them. Make others feel good

by influencing them in a positive way.


13. Start a relationship by having a great conversation, not by trying to

show the other person how smart you are. It's really irritating when someone

you've just spoken to keeps trying to show off how "intelligent" and insightful they are.


14. Don't let everything that enters your eye gate or ear gate come out of

your mouth gate. Most people can't stand babblers!


15. Finally, surround yourself with honest people who feed your mind and soul

and whom you trust!
