This weekend wasn't really that interesting i just did chores oh but i did do one fin thing i went to my friends house and it was really fun.

How to win friends and influence people 

Rule 1: Become Genuinely Interested in other people.
1)'' do this and you will be welcome anywhere''
2)'' you can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you''
3)'' ask questions to other people, questions that they would enjoy answering'' 
when you talk to new people you have to try to make them feel like you want to talk to them if not the person isn't gonna wanna talk to you cause they're gonna feel like if you don't like them.
and don't be acting all nosy getting in their business by asking questions that would make them feel awkward. ask the questions they would like to answer. 

Rule 2: 
1)'' actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, '' i like you. you make me happy. i am glad to see you.'' 
2) '' you don't feel like smiling? then force yourself to smile.'' 
3) ''it creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the counter sign (witness and indication) of friends''  

Rule 3: remember names 
1) '' a mans name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language.''
2) '' if you don't remember names, you are headed for trouble'' 
what this means is that it is better for you if you are able to remember peoples names and all that. and how to remember names is easy just need to do something interesting so they catch your attention and you are able to remember and they are gonna like you more because you remember it  

Rule 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.

1) " If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener." 

2) "Remember that the man you are talking to is a hundred times more interested in himself and his wants and his problems than he is in you and your problems. 

Rule 5: Talk in terms of the other man's interest.

"The royal road to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most."
