In my Rich Habits Study, ninety-five percent of wealthy people said that being liked was crucial to their success. In contrast, only 9% of poor people believe that being liked is important to success.
It turns out the rich are doing great things.
You may be familiar with the saying: “There is safety in numbers.” One of the key factors in humanity’s incredible success is our ability to form social groups.
In the early days of human existence, those who did not belong to the group became food for predators. Isolation almost certainly means death.
Being part of a group is so vital to our survival as a species that it has been ingrained in our DNA over the past 10 million years.
When someone says “I like you” directly or indirectly (gossip), your perception of that person changes.
Success has a lot of moving parts. Being liked is one of those moving parts. This is the basis for success. When you can get people to like you, it changes their behavior toward you.
If you tell people you like them, you can get them to do almost anything you want. Our brains are wired to put people who like us on a pedestal.
If you like someone, let them know. They will be happy to assist you on your path to success.
