Tuning up the site #3

Here’s the third batch of updates.  The first three articles are new, but mainly gather together a bunch of ideas that were previously scattered all over the place:

Loosen Up To Be More Socially Successful

Is Thinking You’re Better Than Other People Holding You Back Socially?

Reasons People Mistakenly Think They Don’t Like Something

(I’m not sure about the title for this one. If you read the article you’ll get what it’s about, but I can’t quite figure out a good wording for the concept without sounding accusatory. False, mistaken, faulty, they all sound bad and don’t totally capture everything… If you have any idea, feel free to drop me a line).

I also edited What To Do If You Can’t Relate To All The Shallow People Out There to be not be about six different concepts at once, and to focus just on ways people can seem more shallow than they are, and why “shallow” things aren’t all bad.

Tuning up the site #2

The second batch of updates is done. First a new article:

Some Ways People Are Mentally Lazy About Judging Others

And a sort of new article, to put my ideas about indirect improvement in one spot:

Indirectly Become More Socially Successful By Improving Yourself As A Person

I split up and revised my older article on the tricky issue of changing yourself. One thing I wanted to emphasize was how you don’t have totally overhaul your whole personality just to get better with people:

You Don’t Have To Totally Change And Sell Out To Have Social Success

Sometimes Changing Yourself Can Increase Your Social Success

And since the ideas in the articles above previously may have been scattered all through the site, often redundantly, I’ve gone through the site as a whole to help tidy it up. I’m not totally done on that count, but I should be once all the tune ups are done.
