What is conversation?

A conversation, it’s a fascinating thing, a conversation is an adventure. A conversation gives you a whole new perspective.war happens due to conversations. We can avoid them if we avoid bitter conversation. And conversations can make peace. And conversations define who we are as a human race because human are most advanced in communication.

Is he a stranger?

And think about this: every single person in your life was once a stranger to you. And you knew nothing about them until you had that first conversation.

How do you do it? How do you talk to a stranger?
Strangers. They are everywhere and it's good that we don't see same faces all the time . and we’ve always been told don’t talk to strangers but I beg to differ we should talk to strangers. Every stranger comes with an opportunity — an opportunity to learn something new to amend ourselves, an opportunity to have an experience you never had and fascinate yourself or hear a story that you’ve never heard before. And you had that moment, right? You’re in the room with someone you don’t know and you look across the room. You see a stranger and you think I want to talk to this person and you can almost hear the first word coming out but it just won’t come out, it kind of get stuck in the throat, it kind of goes up and down and swing there and you don’t know. You know what, here is my advice. Just say it. What’s the worst that can happen?They want to talk to you. Well they’re not talking to you now.logic.common sense.

The first word floodgates

The first word floodgates — the fact is that the first word acts as a floodgate. You know, once you said the first word, everything else just flows and you learn afterwards. So keep it simple – a hi, a hey, a hello, and do what every good bowler does. Just gather the enthusiasm, the positivity, the energy, put on a big smile and say hi.

Think about the people you know who seem to bring out the best in you whenever you talk to them: You feel comfortable talking to them and could go on talking forever. They could be old friends or someone you just met, but the conversation just seems to flow smoothly and naturally.

If you wish you had the natural ability to make conversation that the people you admire have, don’t despair. Having meaningful conversations is something that can be learned, and with focus and practice, we can all become better at it.

Have you ever had someone talk endlessly about something that you didn’t have the slightest interest in? It probably felt like they were having a conversation with themselves and you just happened to be there. These people seem to be oblivious to the idea that you may not share their interest.

The best conversations begin with showing an interest in the other person, their world, and what they might be interested in. Most people love to talk about themselves. Ask them an open-ended question about something that you notice about them. If you can give them a sincere compliment or give them positive feedback, you’ve made a great start. Great conversationalists have a sincere interest in others, notice things about them, and use these things to start and fuel their conversations.

Conversation do need a start

Think of the people that you are willing to open up to and share things with. What is it about them that makes you so comfortable disclosing things that you wouldn’t normally with others?

Likely they are good at making eye contact with you and making you feel like you are receiving their full and undivided attention. Pay attention to their expressions. Notice that they are with you not only in the tone of their words but in their expressions. Their faces light up when you are sharing something you are happy or excited about, and they take on a solemn, sad look when you are sharing bad news. You sense and feel that they are totally engrossed in what you are telling them.

If emulating what they are doing seems unnatural to you, practice and push yourself to do so. Notice that people will start to react differently to you.

yourself to do so. Notice that people will start to react differently to you.

4. ASK GOOD QUESTIONS

We can get others to share more by showing an interest and asking open-ended questions to help them get deeper into the conversation. Good questions are asking someone how they think or feel about something that they are talking about. If you have talked to someone before, ask them about things that they volunteered in the conversation before. Likely, if they brought up something on their own, it is of interest and some importance to them. Ask yourself what other areas that are related to their interests that they would love to talk about.
