Mastering The Art Of Conversation

Conversation

The secret to getting another person to hang on your every word is simple–talk about them. If you talk about them, they will listen to you all day. Always keep in mind, the other person is dying to tell his or her story, but couldn’t care less about yours. The minute you introduce the words “I” and “Me” into the conversation, the other person loses interest quickly. So, the next time someone starts talking to you about themselves or their kids, don’t feel that you have to compete by talking about yourself or your kids. Instead sit back and enjoy their story (or their lies). If you do, the other person will walk away thinking that you are a fantastic conversationalist who has lot of great ideas! Remember, after all is said and done, people won’t remember what you said, but they will remember how you made feel.
