3 Tips to Looking Good: There are many a good way to looking good, and receiving compliments, here is a short list of a few things that have worked good for me.
1. Look really trashy the first time they see you, that way the next time they see you and you are well groomed and dressed they cant help but smile and offer a kind "You look good".
2. It is never a bad thing to overdress, despite the ominous awkwardness, it leaves everyone striving to meet you as they begin to feel inadequate and underdressed.
3. Starting a new fashion, or trying to revive a fashion from the past is always a plus, everyone thinks your hip, regardless of the fashion your are reviving. (except mullets, please don't try and revive that)
3 Tips to Impressing People: This comes naturally to me, but here a few tips I have picked up on my own.
1. Whenever returning from home, remove your sweater and put on a different sweater. (I picked this one up as a little kid, from Mr. Rogers) If you feel so inclined you can also change into a different pair of shoes.
2. If you know someone is coming over, turn on a somewhat sophisticated movie in a different language, when they walk in and see you watching Davinci Code in French, they can't help but be impressed.
3. Every morning open up your dictionary and find an big word and try and use it at least once in every conversation you have that day.

1. Props on your first point, its always good to set low expectations so that people can be pleasantly surprised.
2. I don't think Da Vinci Code counts as a sophisticated movie, next time try something like Lars and the Real Girl in Russian. Just my opinion.
You need a word of the day calendar. And you need to write a self-help book. Tip from Aunt Rachel: Self Help books make gobs of money because everyone (*everyone*) is insecure. Then you can become a guru like Covey (you'll have to shave your head) and you can live in Hawaii for half the year. Nice.
that sounds like a plan. i prefer a shaved head, hair is so high maintenance
