Stop declining when people invite you to stuff.
Stop being picky about activities/food/music/etc.
Be vigilant/safe, yet open minded, open to new experiences, spontaneous.
Plan trips and events, both budget friendly and splurgy, then actually commit to doing them.
Smile and laugh n shit.
Compliment people, thank people, be considerate to others even if it's not always reciprocated.
When it is reciprocated, gravitate more towards that person, and gravitate slowly away from people who don't seem to appreciate you.
