“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.” by dale Carnegie.

We meet lots of people in our life .But to make friends it’s our choice. Some people are really good at making friends but some even do not know how to start talking and influence people . If you are kind ,helpful,listening to others,caring and humble you will automatically influence people and easily make good friends. People are social animals. They need people to survive in the world.those who have few but good friends are happier than those who do not have sincere and supportive friends. It is not difficult but you need to develop some habits which make other people feel good about you and these can be learned through observation .Communication is considered a skill but not every cannot become a good communicator if he or she does not know how to influence others.

We always talk about others when it comes to speaking about who are friends? But we do not pay attention to the matter that either we are considered good friends or not. I have learnt that making friends is not difficult when we start taking interest in others ,automatically people like us and want to talk to us.

If you want others to be nice to you or support you in every difficulty ,be like one who always stands at the back of their friends ,then you will not need to struggle to find friends .There are some techniques which stood out after reading the book: how to win friends and influence people.

Ask people about their health ,their interests,their goals,like dislikes, everything which makes them start talking .It helps to make a soft side in their hearts for you. give them advice ,appreciate them while they do anything no matter its small or big ,just make them feel happy .
