The Four Step System of Being People Smart
(regardless of who you are!)
1. Be naturally agreeable *when possible*
*of course there are many times when it is not possible or practical to agree. None the less, most disagreements are completely unnecessary, and are usually are more a clash of egos than ideas.
2. Tell people *when you agree with them*
3. Don’t disagree (out loud) unless it is absolutely necessary.
4. Admit it when you are wrong.
There are three reasons for the art of being agreeable:
1. People like those who agree with them.
2. People dislike those who disagree with them.
3. People dislike being disagreed with.

Basic, subjective advice... hardly useful.
