Popularity

Most people think that becoming popular is difficult, and staying on top of your game, when you do, is even worse. While that can be true in rare situations, it’s actually quite simple to become popular - you just need the right tools, and know how to play it cool. I’m here to help you with all you need to know, so moving on...

Checklist in Becoming Popular
1) Be friendly to everybody - not just a certain clique/crowed.

2) You need to be outgoing, doesn’t mean you still can’t be a little shy or even a lot really, what I mean by “outgoing” is to be able to walk up to people and start a conversation without feeling awkward.

3) Talk to three different people everyday, until you’ve met everyone in school/work/etc.

4) Try to find interesting things you have in common with people, and then introduce that fact in a conversation. You wouldn’t believe how much you can talk about one thing, when you have two people who both like it.

5) Get involved. Whether you’re at school, work or wherever you are - there’s always that chance to move up the totem pole, and you want to be at the top. So try your absolute best in everything you do, it will show people how determined and successful you are. People will want to be your friend because those are good qualities.

6) This is sometimes the hardest step for people, but one of the most important if not THE most important - open up to people. You have to show them who you really are, if not, they probably won’t want to be you friend. Don’t try to act like someone else because others can see that, and they only want you to be yourself. Otherwise, you’re not really “friend” material.

Here are some wonderful links I’ve looked up, that should give you a sense of what being popular really is and the steps involved in it.
