Know what you like about yourself, and don’t forget it. The road to popularity can sometimes be hard. In order to keep yourself happy you need to remember these things. The things you don’t like about yourself, change them. If you don’t like that you are fat, then lose some weight, but only do it if you want to. Not all popular people have rock hard bodies. The most important things of all are the things you don’t like about yourself that you can’t change. If you realize that there are things about yourself that you can’t change, and you’re okay with that, it will boost your self esteem and overall make you a better person that people will want to be around and feed off that energy.

Start slow and work your way up. Know the group you want to hang out with. If you want to be in a “popular” group, figure out who that group is. Study the group, and decide if it’s what you really want. Pick one person from the clique/group you want to join, preferably someone you see a lot (i. e. having classes with them, do after school sports with, or live close to). Start talking to to this person, learn more about him, and he will slowly start to become your friend. Don’t throw yourself at this person or they will be weirded out. As you become more of a friend to this person, you will learn more about the group, and how the people act. As you work your way through time, he will introduce you to some of his friends, and soon, you may just become part of the group.
