"Hi I'm Donna Barnes I'm a life and dating coach and owner of NY Dating Coach here in New York City. In this clip we'll talk about how to be popular in school. Well yeah everybody wants to be popular but first let me say that being popular isn't the most important thing. But being a good person is what's most important. And it's usually the really good people that are the most popular. So be nice to everybody. Say hello to people even if you don't know them. Smile and be friendly, don't try to show off, don't try to act tough. You know the tough girls might be popular some time but you know that's not necessarily the way to go about doing that so. Just be yourself. Being yourself is the most warming and genuine thing to other people. So don't put too much attention on yourself. If you put yourself more out on what other people are thinking and other people, not worried about what people are thinking but if you get all too in your head and you are too worried about how you are acting then you are going to act unnatural. But if you really just put yourself in the moment and be aware of what's going on people will like you. This is Donna Barnes from New York City."
