Question

How to be more communicative?

Answer 1

Seriously, you may think I'm nuts..

But I open up my cosmo magazine and read the guy advice column, and ask my boyfriend what his opinion is on it.

It made it easier for us to communicate, because we could see where eachother stands on certain topics.

Answer 2

To be good in communicating first of all most impt thing is to be a """good and patient listner""

And yes very impt: presence of mind is very important.

pay attention to what other says,

maintain eye contact but dnt intimidate him/her,,

presence of mind as i said is usefull to note down or rememmber the "key words" a person says upon which u can elaborate and ask him/her or discuss with him/her.

so when u stress upon those key words which tht person says ,naturally he feels like u r very attentive  and also by doing this u r asking [communicating] with that person about what  tht person already has bit of knowledge about,, and discussion gets  the required wat u can say "thrust".... .

And apart fmr this ,,amile gently coz it will make both of u comfortable with each others company or if in group  then too,,

but at professional occassions dnt forget formalities,,.... i means lot.

Answer 3

I actually worried about this last week, that I wasn't saying enough to my friends. (I was insecure about a few of my friends, now I only have my real friends with me.) It seems hard, especially when other people don't put input into the conversation. The girl who reads cosmopolitan has the right idea. They have a whole section filled with icebreakers, so you can basically talk to anyone. Also, ask them questions about themselves, people like to talk about themselves more than they like to hear about us. =] (Well, most people. I love hearing about other people, haha!)

Never practice what you say, because a good conversation just flows.

Lastly, have confidence in yourself! I know that you said that you think you are boring, but I do not believe that for one minute! There is no such thing as a boring person. Their voice can be boring, or their conversation can be boring, but they are not boring themselves! Believe in yourself and understand your talents because you are a great person!
