Technology Market / Re: ROMOSS sense 6p 20,000mah POWER BANK, LCD FOR phone laptop via type-C #10,000 by damcqute(m): 7:36pm On Oct 25, 2014
damcqute:
Got mine today and tested it already. unfortunately, i followed me Mayorall's (mistaken) instruction of draining the battery before charging (as i read from previous comments) it the 1st time before reading @micynute94 review just now. i hope that doesn't affect the performance.
Anyway, this is my initial however brief review:
i used the power bank to charge my infinix zero while using the phone, non stop. i know that to get a faster charge, i should turn off data or switch it off, but i didnt want to do that at that time this resulted in slow charging at a rate of approx. 1% in 4-5 mins using the 1A port. The 2A port was surprisingly slower. i dont understand why that is but i also noticed that using a 1.5A charger on the phone was also a bit slower than the 1A charger i normally use with it. i am guessing that is the max input for the battery.

Right now, i am recharging the PB and timing it to know how long it will take to fully charge.

but i have full confidence in the powerbank and i also appreciate mr Mayorall's efforts to get the powerbank delivered to me in shagamu despite some difficulties. i hope our future transactions will be much smoother. Thanx boss.

i forgot to mention that my phone battery drains much more slowly after charging it with the PB compared to PHCN electricity or generators.

Need help concerning a friend's week old infinix zero. She complains that it hangs sometimes but when she looks and unlocks the phone it stops hanging. But now, the frequency of hanging has increased and now she has to reboot it sometimes for it to function again. What could be wrong and how can she go about it? @miztyna @safas20 @madgoat

Romance / 14 Practical And Easy Ways To Get Anyone To Like You by damcqute(m): 11:00pm On Oct 12, 2014
One thing I have discovered in life is that having the right skills to interact with others thereby getting people to like you is ALWAYS an advantage. It becomes easier for others to trust you or give you a chance to prove yourself, either at work, in school or in your personal business. Except you are exceptionally good in your field, the chances that people will say nice things about you, or refer clients or even patients to you if they don't like you is quite slim. So I came across these tips on the muse and thought to share with you.

The basics of getting people to like you are obvious—be nice, be considerate, be a decent human being. Those things are all true.

However, there are also many smaller, more discreet things you can do that can have a huge effect on how others perceive you.

Most of these tips are little techniques you can implement every day. They may seem insignificant or even silly, but give them a try and you might find yourself becoming exponentially more popular.


1. Use a Person’s Name
Let’s face it—we’re all huge narcissists and we all love the sound of our own name. Learn names and make use of them. Always use an individual’s name in a conversation.


2. Smile—With Feeling!
Although we live in a digital age that increasingly substitutes technology for human interaction, we are still at our cores very social creatures. As humans, we use social interaction as a tool for feedback, and we make a lot of conscious and subconscious choices based on how others engage with and respond to us.

When someone offers a huge grin brimming with authenticity, happiness rubs off on its receivers. There have been many studies showing how mood, whether positive or negative, spreads between individuals. If your positive attitude brightens someone else’s day, that person will love you for it.


3. Listen (Not Just With Your Ears)
It’s probably a no-brainer that people will like you more if you listen to them. This starts with ignoring your Twitter feed while out to dinner with friends, but goes a lot further than that. You can show you’re listening to someone through body language (positioning your body to face someone and mirroring his or her stance), eye contact (giving plenty of it), and verbal confirmation (we’ll talk more about this next).


4. Use Verbal Confirmation
Most psychology books refer to this technique as “active listening.” Active listening revolves around demonstrating your listening skills by repeating segments of what an individual has said to you. For example:

Mark: I went to this awesome beer tasting event over the weekend—I got to try a ton of great local beers from all over the state.

You: You got to try a lot of different beer, huh?

Mark: Yes, it was really fun. My favorite was the Pretty Things Magnifico.

You: The Magnifico was your favorite?

Mark: Yeah, it tasted great.

While in text form this looks like a strange conversation, in speech this kind of dialogue can actually go a long way to make people like you more. It makes the other individual feel as though you really are paying attention. Plus, people love to hear their own words echoed back at them as it pats their egos a bit.




5. Conversation Recall: Prove You’re Paying Attention

To really show someone you’ve been paying attention, try bringing up a topic that the person mentioned earlier. Did your co-worker talk about working with his son on a science fair project last week? Follow up and ask how it went. Did your friend say she was going to paint her kitchen a new color over the weekend? Ask how she likes the new color on Monday. They don’t have to be big, life-changing events. In fact, sometimes it says more that you can recall and show interest in even the small happenings in another person’s life.


6. Sincere Compliments and Plentiful Praise
This is very different from empty flattery, which most people are adept at detecting. No one likes a brown-nose, and most people don’t particularly love being pandered to. What people really want is sincere appreciation—to be recognized and appreciated for their efforts.

In addition to giving people sincere appreciation, it’s also important to be generous with your praise. People love being praised, and is it any surprise? It feels great to be told you’ve performed a job well. When an individual does something right, say so. It won’t be forgotten.


7. Handle Criticism With Tact
In the same vein, while you want to be generous with your praise, be stingy with your criticism. People have delicate egos, and even a slight word of condemnation can wound someone’s pride. Of course correction will be necessary at times, but it should always have a purpose and be handled with care. If someone makes an error, don’t call that person out in front of a group. Be discreet, be delicate. Consider offering up a compliment sandwich—a deliciously effective strategy that involves dishing out praise before and after a criticism. For example:

That newsletter template you sent over looks great, good work. So it looks like there were a few numerical errors in that recent report you sent over—just be sure to double check those numbers. I also wanted to tell you to keep up the great stuff you’ve been posting in Facebook—I’ve been seeing a big boost in engagement.

Your goal should really be to get the other person to recognize the mistakes without you pointing them out. Even in the example above, you could simply say, “I saw a few numerical errors in that recent report you sent over,” and wait for a response. If the individual responds apologetically and promises to try harder, you don’t need to drive home the subject. Tell them not to worry, that you’re sure they’ll get the hang of it, and move on. The less finger-pointing, the better.

Another strategy for diplomatically dispensing corrections is to begin by discussing your own mistakes before digging into someone else’s errors. Ultimately, aim to be always gentle with criticism and only offer it when it’s truly needed.
