I speak frequently on this blog about the benefits of being nice and how this can raise your attractor factor. Your attractor factor is all about your ability to raise your vibrational level to attract great things in your life . Make yourself into a magnetic being so that wealth, love, happiness and more are attracted into your life easily and effortlessly.
A very easy way to raise your attractor factor is simply to be nice. When you are nice, happy and friendly, others wish to be around you. The positive energy you put out there attracts others to you. This then makes others want to help you in many ways. In my every day life I notice a severe shortage of nice people. It seems as if people are missing the very simple, basic concepts of being nice and attracting happy people and circumstances into their life as a result. Being nice works, period! I know from my experience traveling the world and interacting with hundreds of different people. Being nice leaves a memorable impression on others which always returns to you in many positive ways.
Here are my top tips on how to be a nice person:
Smile When You Greet Others and Ask How they Are
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa
While this seems pretty simple and straightforward do you know how many people don’t do this one simple thing? Being friendly in this way opens up so many avenues for conversation. You immediately disarm a person when you give them a smile and ask how they are. You let them know you are happy to see them and care enough to ask after them. Smiley, happy, friendly people attract smiley, happy, friendly circumstances!
Use Your Manners
Manners are free and the most powerful way for you to receive great rewards for nothing!! Please and thank you go a long way. I rarely hear people say it anymore, especially our youth. This is something we encourage in Kalyra constantly and we always receive comments from others about her lovely manners. It brightens peoples day when you show them this small bit of recognition and they remember you forever because of it. Manners makes a lasting impression.
Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter which fork you use. ~Emily Post
Ask others about their life, listen and respond
If you want others to like and remember you then spend time getting to know them. Ask questions about their life and then listen. Let them know you are interested in what they have to say. Make encouraging comments and smile in your interaction with them. I grew up as a very shy and insecure person. I never knew what to say to people. I overcame this by putting all the responsibility on others. I simply asked a lot of questions about the person I was conversing with and their life. I allowed them to talk and I filled in the gaps. Not only did this develop strong social skills in me but it gave the person I was talking to a sense of importance. People love talking about their lives and they love people who show an interest in them.
Praise and Encourage
Give people simple statements of praise and encouragement. Find something to compliment them on. It’s easy “I like the way…..” “You’re hair looks great!” “That’s a cool way of thinking” “Awesome” Good On Ya” You rock!” and the list goes on. People will remember you when you do small things like this. You will be the one they will turn to when they need a boost of encouragement. You’ll be the one they will want to hang out with as you will make them feel good.
Be Lighthearted
Bring laughter into your conversations with others as much as you can. Laughter equals joy and there is no higher emotion. Make your interactions with others light-hearted and fun. Forget about moaning and complaining about others and your circumstances. This never makes anything better and just drains the energy from those listening to you. Talk about fun and interesting things and just kid around. Life is far too serious, bring some release for others with your positive and light hearted conversations. It’s far easier to praise, encourage and smile from this state also.
Awakening to your life’s purpose is a journey that is filled with much struggle. But it’s a beautiful struggle. It’s a beautiful struggle because it’s your awakening to a greater you and a greater life. When you say yes to life, when you say yes to living your life’s purpose, you are saying yes to struggle. The struggle just means that the Universe is preparing you for change and change is good. It’s preparing you for the greatness of your life that you said yes to. It doesn’t come easy as you have to learn to grow and to grow you need a little upheaval.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow mindedness- Mark Twain
Travel is our passion for these very reasons. Today’s travel lesson talks about the benefits of travel. It has opened up our minds to a whole new world that is full of diversity to embrace and enjoy not to be fearful and prejudice of. Travel gives you the opportunity to experience people from all works of life and understand just how alike we all are. This fosters peace, love, tolerance and acceptance in our world and what a better place it makes it for all.
We know this because travel did indeed kill prejudice, bigotry and narrow mindedness for us and our life is so joyful as a result. It should be a requirement of all people when they leave high school.
Another travel quote on open mindedness that we love:
The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page
Thai Friends
Expand your mind and expand your world. Read the whole novel of life, it’s beautiful, it’s fascinating and each character brings to it it’s own special role of importance and value. Discover a kaleidoscope world viewed through the eyes of commonality
Play our Song of the Week and think about how awesome you are. You deserve it!

Positive mental visualization is a powerful technique for you to use to attract into your life all you want to be, do and have. Make your visualization like a movie. Put it in bright colors, give it motion and include your 5 senses in it. With this visualization exercise always make sure you put in conversations. This will really help to enrich your feelings which is what brings what you want to you.

Our Deepest Fear is not that we are inadequate

Powerful Beyond Measure
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us
Your playing small does not serve the world There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that
other people won’t feel insecure around you
We are all meant to shine as children do
It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone
And as we let our own light shine We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same
As we are liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others.
Marianne Williamson
This is one of my favorite Coach Carter quotes, written by Marianne Williamson. You are powerful beyond measure and it’s so important that you allow yourself permission to shine and unconsciously do the same for others. You can read more of my thoughts on how to let your light shine at my wealth and happiness blog.
