Do you ever find yourself saying "I’d be so much happier if only I could..." Well, time to stop wishing and start taking action! Here’s how to get what you want. From Woman’s World magazine.
To get your dream job -- Be Mr. Nice Guy. According to research from the University of Washington, making nice with a potential employer will win you more points than boasting about your qualifications. In this study, job interviewers gave the applicants who flattered them and said nice things about the company higher ratings than applicants flaunting their skills. Flattery made the interviewers think the job seekers shared their beliefs and attitudes -- making them a better fit.
To attract the man of your dreams -- Stand in the center of the room! Research shows that when the same woman stands in various places in a crowded room, she’s most likely to be approached in the center. Why? Because it projects the image that you’re popular -- which is something potential partners subconsciously look for.
To make more money -- Tell your boss you work out! It makes people think you’re smarter and better at your job! In a McMaster University study, exercisers were rated as more intelligent, hardworking and in control.
To start losing weight: Have a V8 -- or a bowl of vegetable soup -- about 20 minutes before your main course. Penn State University studies found that by doing that, you’ll cut the calories you consume during the entire meal by one-fourth.As the liquid is being digested, it activates your stomach’s stretch receptors, sending “I feel satisfied” signals to your brain.
