There is a lot to likeability and your suggestion on picking one area and working on that first is a good suggestion. Thank you. Aloha, Bob Sommers Great post.

Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb. I am from Ireland and too bad know English, give true I wrote the following sentence: "We are a comprehensive ebusiness, website design and seo services company based in austin, tx.Download blizzard internets free marketing white paper on search engine optimization for wordpress blogs." With love :-D, Celandine. Good morning. Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path.

I guess I think of convictions entailing an idea of right and wrong, which means judgment about what falls into which categories. What strikes me is that numbers four and five are contradictory.

C'mon, this list is awful. Ditch the whole thing. "Make people laugh" or "flatter, flatter, flatter" will beat everything on that list of "chicken soup" strategies. PS I like it when you are judgmental. I came over because of the smart comment you left on businesspundit.

"Control your insecurities" is a good one - I once nervously but perversely confessed to a group of people I was trying to impress how scared I was of public speaking, which they were asking me to do. Felt like an idiot for days afterwards. I don't know about likeability, but it sure wasn't professional! (Thought I'd responded to this before but I guess it didn't take…)

On the Meyers-Briggs test I'm an ENTJ, and I like that. So maybe I should not try so hard to stop judging. But I have a feeling that I'm off the deep end on the J. I wish I could, one day, take the test and wonder, for one moment, if I'm maybe a P. Maybe then I would feel a little more balanced.... and be more likeable, of course :) Good point, Chris.

On all the Meyers-Briggs tests, I'm always heavily on the Judging side versus the Perceiving side. On the other hand, I think that my ability to form quick judgments is a strength, not a weakness. Perhaps the item should be phrased, "Be open to changing your mind, and don't let judgments prejudice your actions." Not as clear, though! The item I'd most need to work is eliminating judgments.
