The best way to develop a personality which people love to be with is to "shut up and listen"! It doesn't really matter what your personality is; if you have the ability to listen to what other have to say about themselves without trying always to impose your personality and interests on a conversation, you will be the friend of many people for life! The truth is that most people (well, all people, really) are far more interested in themselves than in other people. I am not being cynical when I say that - it's a plain fact of life! It is those people who can temporarily put that interest aside for a bit and show interest in others who get the reputation of being really helpful and nice people. Being known for being helpful is very odd in itself. Those who are most successful at it actually say very little at all. They first of all listen to what the other person's problem is and then they provide little prompts so that the other person is encouraged to work through the problem. Eventually a solution is found ... but it is actually all the work of the person with the problem! The helpful friend is often told how amazing they are and how they solved a problem which had been worrying the person for days! If you are lucky, that person will tell many others what a wonder and what a great person you are! There! Some people would charge an arm and a leg for a session which tells you very little more than that!

kd_fmay has given part of the answer but has missed out the one essential ingredient - interest in (that is, real 'caritas' = 'caring for ' or 'love for') other people. Once you have that, everything else follows. Read St Paul!

I agree. We adults have a tendency to talk more and listen less. People would prefer to talk with people who listen.

Hi nadeerclt. First and foremost, there is nothing wrong if you would like to improve your personality. But you should improve not to attract others but you should do it for yourself. You should start by building some confidence and believing in yourself. Then the rest follows. Just be yourself. Do what you want. Say what's on your mind.

Hello nadeerclt! There's nothing wrong attending Personality Development training/seminar, specially when you are an employee. I've experienced before when I was working in a Pre-need company, we are required to attend this kind of seminar. Good personality should be start within and it will flows naturally. Be positive in any aspect of your life.... wearing smile everyday.... speak with a gentle voice... have self-confidence... mingle with those people whom you can acquire good traits... etc. We can attract people by being natural.

I don't see myself as someone exciting. However, for some reason, people gravitate towards me without me giving so much effort. You don't have to change who you are and you don't have to transform yourself into someone else. I think you just have to be interested in them, first. After being interested in getting to know them, they will become interested to get to know you back. Also, be open and open-minded. If their opinions don't match yours, you don't have to engage in verbal collision right away. Appreciate your differences. One big tip: SMILE. It works wonders. You wouldn't want to approach someone who looks sour and frowns all the time, right?
