Three strange ways to become instantly more likeable

This will help you attract fans for life.

People are often surprised at how long I've been creating and sharing stuff online.

I've been developing an online presence for more than fifteen years now.

And yes, you have every right to call me Old Man Mathers.

But I still feel like I have so much yet to learn.

There are gaps in my knowledge of what makes people sit up and read and ultimately decide to use my products or want to work with me.

I'm a beginner in this sense.

One thing writing online for so long forces you to learn is 'likability.'

As they say, people buy from those they like and trust.

If you want to create any impact in this world, you need to know at least a few things about what draws other humans to you.

Thousands of others are playing this funny online game. You need to stand out, and you need to be magnetic.

There are three significant components to likeability that I try to incorporate into my work. I've given them all fancy names:

Strategic Vulnerability

The Authenticity Paradox

Energy Alchemy Method

👉🏼

  1. Strategic Vulnerability.

People relate to humans. Humans are not perfect beings.

We're flawed. So, by intentionally sharing your mistakes and struggles, people fall in love with you.

  1. The Authenticity Paradox.

They'll tell you to' be yourself,' but that just leads to self-consciousness and bland communication. Instead, focus on enjoying the moment. 

You can enjoy the dark moments as much as the hilarious. You'll open up when you're engaged in the fun of what you're doing.

You'll become more creative. You'll have inadvertently tapped into your authentic, playful self.

  1. Energy Alchemy Method.

I call the process of making others feel more important and happy 'Energy Alchemy.'

You're taking someone out of their neuroses and showing them they can do it.

Even if I can be a bit of a butthead in my writing, I always make sure you come away with a cheeky skip in your step.

These three components of moulding yourself into a likeable character - online or in the real world - comprise a more expansive course of 9 secrets that I've nearly completed.

It's called 'The Likeability Code,' and you get full access to the course for free when you upgrade to the Ember membership.

Ember gives you access to a new mini-course like this each month, and The Likeability Code will be released in the next few days.

The course disappears after a while, so you need to be part of the membership before the chance is gone.

Until next time friends,

Your man in Sofia,

Alex
