How to make people like you

Try this: next time you're in a supermarket line ask the person behind you if they'd like to go ahead of you. Orwell states that your greatest area of influence is within 5 to 10 feet of you. What you do in that space can have beneficial consequences. Usually people won't want to go ahead of you but they'll thank you just the same. And if they do step ahead of you they'll thank you all the way out the door. Get "Why Orwell Matters" by Christopher Hitchens at PowellsBooks.com
