4. Instead of telling people you have leftovers for them, tell them you made extra.
Our choice of words is a huge part of how others perceive us and how they feel around us. If you’re offering your friends something you cooked before, don’t tell them they can try leftovers. It will make them feel like you are just looking for a way to get rid of leftover food, so you don’t have to throw it away. On the contrary, saying you made extra food would sound much better as well as leave an impression of you as a caring person.
5. Reveal your flaws.
Nobody is perfect, so there is no point in pretending to be flawless. Neglecting one’s flaws is a feature of insecure people. Therefore, if you don’t want to appear unsure about yourself, don’t be afraid of making mistakes.
People who reveal their imperfections are seen as more honest, which is a sign of high confidence. In addition, others will find you more likeable and appealing as they will be able to relate to you instead of seeing you as a threat.
