And often we feel so much resentment, exhaustion, frustration, that we don't even get the benefit from belonging anyways because we're so stressed.
And eventually, you know, you realize it's pointless because the thing is, someone is always going to dislike you.
There's literally nothing you can do about it.
You could do everything in the world.
You could spend millions of dollars on this person.
You could fulfill their greatest wishes.
their ability to like you is just not, they just can't do it.
There's a social framework that's known as the 25% rule.
My friends, Sal and Al shared this with me when I was like doing a live show with them.
And it states that basically no matter how kind, charming, talented you are, 25% of people will never be convinced into liking you.
And the breakdown is basically like this.
There are 25% of people will always like you, have always liked you and always will.
You could like, they will always be in your
team.
25% of people will maybe like you initially, but may change their mind and not like you.
25% of people won't like you initially, but may change their mind and have a different impression.
And then there's that 25% of people who, irrespective of what you do, will not like you for whatever reason.
That 25% is a fact of life.
They're never going to budge.
To expand on this, Bob Sutton, a professor of management science at Stanford, talks about this thing called the 90-10 rule.
