To excel, it helps to know how to connect with others and develop relationships. Nothing replaces a charismatic personality.
Napoleon Hill, author of "Think and Grow Rich" - one of the top-selling books of all time - wrote about the habits of the most likable people in his essay "Develop A Pleasing Personality," published in the collection "The Science of Success."
He introduced his steps to having a "million-dollar personality" by explaining it was steel magnate Charles M. Schwab's charming demeanor that in the late 19th century elevated him from a day laborer to an executive with a $75,000 salary and a frequent million-dollar bonus (a massive amount for the time).
Schwab's boss, the legendary industrialist Andrew Carnegie, told Hill that "the yearly salary was for the work Schwab performed, but the bonus was for what Schwab, with his pleasing personality, could get others to do."
Here are what Hill determined to be the habits of people who are so likable that others go out of their way to help them.
