Compliment Other People. People notice how you treat others, and will associate the adjectives you use to describe other people, with your personalty. This is called “Spontaneous trait transference.” In fact, a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, found that this occurred even when people knew certain traits didn’t describe the person using that compliment. So if you call someone genuine, kind and/or beautiful, people will tend to think that of you. As well, the reverse is true. If you trash talk people, you’ll be associated with those traits as well. Plus, it’s not nice.
