Some People Just Won’t Like You.GET OVER IT!1

Accept it; you are not going to be liked by everyone.One of the biggest human needs is to connect with others; after all we are pack animals. This need to be liked does reduce our power and turns us into people pleasers. It’s okay that not everyone likes you. Having true power is being able to use it to get along with others.

13 Less Talk, More Doing

Don’t tell people what you are going to do before you do it.Go and do it to show your power through action. If you state you are powerful then you probably aren't. Show them instead.

14 Don’t Make Yourself Too Available

Being seen in the early stages builds your reputation. When established be selective on your appearances. Madonna is rarely seen, yet when she does, the media are there to report immediately so her unavailability leads to power.
