Everyone wishes to be liked or thought well of by others. Many suffer when this wish goes unfulfilled. How, then, can one be liked by others?
Those who are not liked by others tend to have 4 weaknesses. One, they are self-centered. Two, they look down on others. Three, they disregard others’ opinions. Four, they are not concerned about others.
To be liked by others, one should try to like other people, make efforts to view things from others’ perspective, and sincerely listen to what others say. In short, one who does not like others cannot expect to be liked. Roman poet Silius said, “People are interested in those who show an interest in them,” and a French proverb says: ”Consideration makes friends.”
Soka Gakkai International President Ikeda said, “If you remain sincere in your interactions with others, you will one day find yourself surrounded by good friends. And among those people, your friendship will be as strong and unshakable as towering trees. Don’t be impatient. Work first on developing yourself, and you can be rest assured that an infinite number of wonderful encounters await you in the future.”
Anyway if you are starting to wonder how come suddenly I can write so well, the truth is, this is NOT written by me. I copied from an article I saw in SSA Times.
