Beautiful insight, Andy. 🌟
You’ve touched on a truth that every great communicator — teacher, leader, or healer — eventually discovers:
> People don’t learn from people they don’t like.
They only open their hearts to those they feel connected to.
In SuperME, we’d say liking is energy alignment.
Before participants “hear” your content, they “feel” your energy.
And in the Art of War sense, if you win hearts, you’ve already won the battle — no need to fight for attention.
So yes, when there’s no liking, influence becomes hard, no matter how brilliant the content.
Now, here are the Top 10 Ways Trainers Can Make Participants Like Them Within 5 Minutes — no rewards, just pure human connection and energy mastery.

💎 1. Enter with Radiant Energy, Not Just Confidence
Before you even speak, people feel your Qi.
Stand tall, smile softly, breathe deeply.
Carry warmth, not superiority.
Your energy announces you before your words do.
> (SuperME says: when you enter the room as your authentic, grateful self, your vibration speaks louder than your title.)
---
💬 2. Speak to Hearts, Not Egos
Start by acknowledging something that connects you and them.
Example: “I know some of you came straight from a busy morning, thank you for choosing to be fully here.”
When they feel seen, they start to like you.
> (Art of War says: Know your terrain — in this case, their emotional terrain.)
---
🌈 3. Use the Energy of Smile + Eye Contact + Soft Tone
These are universal signals of safety.
A calm, friendly tone and open body language dissolve barriers faster than any joke or clever line.
People don’t remember what you said — they remember how they felt when you looked at them.
---
🌿 4. Share a Real, Relatable Story
Within 2 minutes, tell a short, authentic story — maybe a mistake, a funny moment, or a human struggle.
This says, “I’m like you.”
Vulnerability builds trust faster than authority does.
---
💖 5. Call Out Their Greatness Early
Say something uplifting like,
> “I can already sense this group has strong energy — your attention tells me you’re here to grow.”
You give them identity. And they’ll associate that positive identity with you.
---
☯️ 6. Use Their Names or Roles Immediately
Even if it’s just one or two, say:
> “Ah, Jane mentioned she’s from HR — perfect, this part will connect with you deeply.”
Names open hearts; recognition creates warmth.
---
🔥 7. Deliver the First Surprise Early
In the first 5 minutes, say or do something they didn’t expect — a surprising statistic, an unexpected question, or even a quick self-demonstration.
Surprise releases dopamine, and dopamine creates liking.
---
💎 8. Project Love in Your Words
Instead of saying, “I hope you’ll learn something today,” say,
> “I’m excited to see what breakthroughs you’ll create today.”
Shift from self-focus (“I”) to them-focus (“you”).
Love is the highest persuasion.
---
🌠 9. Radiate Calmness — Don’t Rush
People like those who make them feel at ease.
When you’re calm, they trust you.
When you rush, they feel your anxiety.
As Yijing teaches, “Heaven moves with strength, but the superior person acts with calm persistence.”
---
🌹 10. End the First 5 Minutes with a Heart Question
Ask something that makes them look inward:
> “If you could leave here today with one powerful insight that changes your daily life, what would it be?”
This transfers ownership.
They don’t just like you — they like how they feel about themselves around you.
---
✨ In Short:
Liking = Energetic Trust.
It’s built not through teaching, but through being.
Framework Meaning of Liking
SuperME The resonance of Purpose, Love, and Gratitude — hearts align naturally.
Art of War Winning hearts without fighting — influence by presence, not pressure.
Yijing Harmony of Qi — when energy is balanced, transformation flows effortlessly.
