Lyndon Johnson’s 10 point formula for success

1. Learn to remember names. Inefficiency at this point may indicate that your interest is not sufficiently outgoing.

2. Be comfortable personal so there is no strain in being with you. Be an old-show, old-had kind of individual.

3. Acquire the quality of relaxed easy-going so that things do not ruffle you.

4. Don’t be egotistical. Guard against the impression that you know it all.

5. Cultivate the quality of being interesting so people will get something of value from their association with you.

6. Study to get the “scratchy” elements out of your personality, even those of which you may be unconscious.

7. Sincerely attempt to heal, on an honest basis, every misunderstanding you have had or now have. Drain off your grievances.

8. Practice liking people until you learn to do so genuinely.

9. Never miss an opportunity to say a word of congratulation upon anyone’s achievement, or express sympathy in sorry or disappointment.

10. Give spiritual strength to people, and they will give genuine affection to you.

I never thought a concept like this existed but this was a formula penned down by the man that helped him greatly in his quest to become President of the US of A. Time to start working on my formula then! :)
