Korva rescues the ideas worth keeping from podcasts. Each one becomes a Card.
Replace “How are you?” with “What’s been the highlight of your week?” and send the conversation toward positive experiences.
In Richard Wiseman’s smoothie study, an actress seemed more likable after spilling a smoothie than after a perfect demonstration.
The distance between your earlobe and shoulder shapes perceived confidence and vocal power. Keep it open.
Your most dangerous work is work you do competently while neglecting what you do exceptionally.
To find the influential person in a room, watch where everyone’s toes point.
Stand near the bar exit after people get drinks. They turn back ready to connect, and conversations last longer.
Ambivalence drains energy like an app running in the background, consuming attention without you noticing.
Vulnerability is one of the fastest ways to become likable, beating the performance of perfection.
Ask about exciting activities and someone’s brain starts searching for positive experiences. That question gives optimism somewhere to begin.
Build teams around complementary strengths, not identical ones. The right partner turns their weaker work into your strongest work.
For weight loss, pair the target with workouts you love and funny workout partners so happiness starts before the scale changes.
Mark relationships with a star, minus, or question mark. Pause question-mark people and see whether you miss them.
Likable people create tiny moments of acknowledgment, often by greeting others by name or offering a sincere compliment.
