I wish I had some guaranteed tips for this, but I don't. 😃
So I'll try my luck here.
The only thing I can remember is that you become more popular when you connect people and introduce them to each other.
Any other insights?
@busmark_w_nika Yes I agree. Having contrarian opinions may attract haters. But those who resonates will become your loyal followers.
This is not an option if you want to become likable but it will surely make you popular.
I think it's important to get popular for the right reasons.
For example, you may get popular if you just make noise and say crazy things, but then you won't be respected by the people you probably want to be resected by.
If instead, for example, you do excellent work, create useful innovative products, or speak out for people who are wronged, you'll get popular with the right people.
