Probably everyone wants success. But, no matter how strange it may sound, social status is determined not by the qualities of the person himself, but by several other factors. Which ones exactly?
Instructions
Step 1
Appearance.
No matter how trite it may sound, but you will be treated by how you look. Presentable appearance will always emphasize your style, rationality and ability to keep. At the same time, if you always wear faded, worn clothes, you will not be taken seriously. It may seem somewhat unoriginal, but people too often ignore this fundamental rule.
Step 2
Weighted speech.
Try to say little and to the point, it will give you weight. Slightly different things - popularity and social status - a chatty jester will always be popular with groups of people, but this will not add authority and weight to his opinion. To give yourself some importance, speak confidently, moderately succinctly, but always having your own opinion. Looking at a well-delivered speech, people willy-nilly evaluate your intelligence.
Step 3
Work, leisure.
Even Machiavelli said in The Sovereign: “Everyone can see the ruler, but only a few can touch him. Therefore, the dilemma "to be or to seem" is resolved in the obvious direction. " This rule also applies in everyday life: only a few can communicate closely with you, and more than a hundred people can see superficially (check your friends on social networks). And for these superficial ones, it is much more important to know that you have a prestigious job and you rest only in expensive clubs. Nobody will figure out how much you spend in these clubs.
Step 4
Contacts.
As much as your appearance and behavior, it matters who your friends are. Moreover, it is not at all necessary to abandon old acquaintances: it is more important to make new ones. The most reliable and unobtrusive way to expand your circle of acquaintances is, oddly enough, activity. For example, just the desire to put a playground in an open area can introduce you to the head of the district administration. The higher the goals you set for yourself, the higher people you will meet sooner or later.
Step 5
Significant other.
Oddly enough, your partner will directly highlight your social status. Your beautiful wife will be a constant reminder to your friends that the best girls are interested in you, which means a lot. For women, the main indicator of a husband's quality will not be beauty, but love and a desire to please their beloved.
However, your family can, on the contrary, decisively destroy your position in society if all friends know about the fictitiousness and weakness of marriage.
