Even the most popular people have their detractors. Because we are
all different, with differing interests and personalities, it is simply
impossible for anyone to be beloved by every individual who knows him or
her. If your mission in life is to make everyone like you, great
disappointment is in store. But if you are always kind and considerate
in your dealings with others, they may not like you, but it will be
impossible for them to dislike you.
You can cement your relationships with others by making sure that you
are a person of character, one who is predictably honest,
straightforward, and ethical. When you follow such a code of conduct,
you may not be sought out by others who do not share your value, but you
will be respected by all who know you. And in the end, self-respect
will mean far more to you than mere popularity.
