First figure out which people are your target. You just can't get it from everybody.
Decide if your really want to put up this facade or be yourself.
Read "How to Win Friends and Influence People".
Or you can decide to be yourself and join real people and have real relationships.

I don`t know... but I think that the people I consider great really have some inner core that is just so damn decent. They do the right thing by everyone, then respected coz they are just so nice. They are also hard working, but also play hard... have time for everyone and look after the people the care for. I think that sums up the great people I know.

To be considered great, recognized as great, you must do something great.
"Dont do something great if you cant handle the congratulations" - John Madden.
Doing something great is most easily done by going against the grain. Do the opposite of what everyone else is doing. Sway the masses.

It depends on what you mean by great. But in my opinion a great person is an honest person, who is not afraid to stand for his rights and depends only on himself , and a hardworking person.
That is not very difficult to do, you will be a great when you leave good impressions on people, so, start now!!!!!!

If you are REALLY great for someone, they will think you are great. And geat people have always been those who had a positive impact on others, those who inspire and get the best out of you.

"Great" is not always good or positive... some people have great evil. The word Great can go either way, powerful and nice, or powerful and mean.
So, you just be true to yourself and do not waiver, people will decide whether or not you are "great" and whether you are good or bad...

Be great!
Be positive, pro-active, informative, intuitive, funny, efficient, the list goes on and on. It depends really, on what each individual considers to be great.
I say, that as long as you are true to your word, and compassionate towards all things, than you are great!
