Rule 1: Become genuinely interested on other people.
1) "Do this and you will be welcome anywhere."
2) "You can make more friends in two months be becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."
3) "Ask questions to other people, questions that they would enjoy answering."
Reflection: I sort of agree because not all the time this works and sometimes this can lead to other things and I don't do this. It is better when you try doing what you want instead of listening to other people that you know will not help you on getting friends. You have to make you own choices that make you happy not other people happy. If the person that you are trying to be friends with is not at all paying attention to you then that is not a real friends that is willing to be friends.
Rule 2: Smile
1) "Actions speak louder than words, and smile says, "I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you."
2) "You don't feel like smiling? Then force yourself to smile."
3) "It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign (witness or indication) of friends."
This is not an accurate answer because you do not make friends with a fake smile. You make them by talking to them. They just don't come out of the blue and start being you friend you have to find thing that you are in common with and ask if he/she would like ti join you. You have to be willing to make friends and talk about what you like to do .
Rule 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
1) "If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener."
2) "Remember that the man that 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."
This can be used in everyday life but you have to be careful on how you use it with other people. Because if you use it the wrong way bad things can happen because you were listening way to much and you didn't like that.
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 thing he treasures most."
Although this can be true this can lead to an awkward position that you or the other person will not like and you will not become friends. But other than that you can still become good friends with him if you talk about something you both like that are in common.
Rule 6: Make the other person feel important--and do it sincerely.
"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature." (John Dewy)"Helping people feel important and appreciated works magic."
This is not all true some people d to not like to talk about themselves because of either there dark past or something they did not like that happened to them. Even if though there is a possibility that this might be true. People do not like to always talk about themselves but there are people who do like to talk about themselves.
Final Reflection: The six ways to make people like you, I will use these methods in the future when I want to make a new friend and appreciate what he or she has to say so that I can become friends with someone new.
Rule 3: Remember names
1) "A man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language."
2) "If you don't remember names, you are headed for trouble."
This is some what true but not completely true there are lots of ways to be friends and remembering names is 1 of them. When you remember your friends name it will mean a lot to them that yo are able to remember here name without asking them a second time. When you have a great friend don't forget his name or you will not be treated the same again.
Rule 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
1) "If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener."
2) "Remember that the man that 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."
