Did you know that 85% of your ability to succeed at anything depends on your skills at positively influencing people? Brian Tracy, author of The Power of Charm offers a few tips on how you can become more charming:
The key is to make others feel good about themselves.
- Greet everyone you meet as someone very special. Make people feel special by asking questions about them, and being enthusiastic.
- Find something to praise people about. Everyone likes to be praised be it the grocery clerk, your accountant, or your boss.
- Show your appreciation. Tracy says, thank everyone you come into contact with for whatever you can think of…it boosts people’s confidence, and makes them feel good about themselves. It also makes you feel better about yourself.

Would you like the keys to financial freedom? Mary Farrell’s Beyond the Basics, outlines the characteristics of people who have achieved their financial goals. It’s no secret that people who achieve their goals have a plan – they set financial goals, save and invest their money, and they keep an eye on their investments. Here are five strategies from Fortune magazine for building wealth:
-
Start early and save. If you save $1K a year at 25, you’ll have about five times what you would have than starting at age 45.
-
Invest in index funds rather than individual stocks. They’re easier and safer for the average investor with little time for research.
-
If your employer has a 401(k) plan, use it. Your employer’s contribution is like free money.
-
Avoid mutual funds with a management fee higher than 1 percent.
-
Get rid of your credit card and consumer debt. Pay off the highest rate card first, then work through your lower rate cards.
